THE HOTEL
Named after the soaring white sails that crown its roof, Sails in the Desert is Ayers Rock Resort's premier hotel.  The hotel's interiors are exquisitely furnished and designed, with decor focused on Aboriginal heritage and significant artwork which is on display throughout.

The hotel offers three accommodation options.  Spacious standard rooms have deluxe king or twin queen beds and include air-conditioning and the Spa Rooms have extended balconies with an open-air spa.  The Deluxe Suites are over twice the size of the Spa Rooms and provide separate living/dining and sleeping areas, as well as balconies overlooking the garden.
The real star, of course, is the location, which is truly breath taking.

We loved the award-winning Sounds of Silence buffet barbeque dining experience. To see the sun set behind Uluru, and after dinner, tour the southern night sky with a resident startalker was wonderful.
