This was a beautiful place to stay. We enjoyed the location, the air con, the clean rooms and comfortable beds, the tours, the courtesy bus that was provided around the place and the short walking distance towards the town centre.
The lunch we had was also very nice and the pool was clean and nice and cold.

Good sized Rooms with Accommodating Staff
Lovely facility. Rooms are a lot more luxurious than the exteriors would suggest. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The pool is large, clean and welcoming.
There were two dining options at the facility; a cafe/bar for open for lunch from 10:30-5:30, and a pre fixe dinner priced at $99. Lighter fare can be obtained at either of the two other hotels in the area.

Food was just “OK”.
Main reason for poor review was: first there were ants in our bed. Next morning we asked and they promptly moved us to a new room where there were, wait for it, also ants in the bed and a spider on the wall.
I know it’s the desert but seriously invest in some frequent pest control services!
Customer facing staff was nice. Not their fault.
Area is worth seeing but no more than 2 nights recommended.

What an experience staying in Ayers Rock Resort at Sails in the Desert. Comfortable large room. A/C much needed and worked very well. Loved the non slip tiles in the modern bathroom. Dining options, especially breakfast, a little overpriced but lots of other restaurants, takeouts and supermarket to choose from. We bought some wine at the airport before we flew as the resort is dry so you can only buy in the restaurants or at the bottle shop.
We visited The Field of Light, Uluru at sunset and sunrise with a trip to Kata Tjuta and Walpa Gorge. Amazing!! Shout out to Glen our tour guide with AAT Kings on the sunrise tour. What a passionate and happy guide he is!!
