With its distinctive white canopies and glittering swimming pool, Sails in the Desert is almost as recognizable as Uluru itself.
Surrounded by an ocean of red dirt, this iconic property is the definition of a luxury oasis; sumptuous rooms surrounded by lush green lawns and towering gum trees.
Fresh from a A$50 million make-over, the five-star resort now offers world-class dining options, refreshed rooms and its own day spa, and the pool – ringed with inviting day beds and home to the buzzy Pira pool bar – is the perfect place to unwind and cool off after a day exploring.
Driving time to Uluru is around 20 minutes.
Surrounding area
Sails in the Desert, as its name suggests, is surrounded on all sides by the huge emptiness of Central Australia. Expect lots of red dirt and spinifex grass.
As part of the Ayers Rock Resort, guests enjoy easy access to Yulara town square which offers a small selection of cafes, restaurants and shops.
