Don't worry we've got all the info you need about Uluru hotels, resorts and campgrounds!
Ayers Rock or Uluru in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park is an amazing sight and excellent way for parents to introduce kids to the indigenous culture of Australia. As the huge rock rises out of an empty plain you can’t find a hotel immediately by the site as no accommodation or facilities are permitted in the park.
So the closest accommodation can be found at the Voyagers Ayers Rock Resort in the town of Yulara 20km north of Ayers Rock where there is everything from camping to 5 star hotels. In addition you’ll find supermarkets, stores, a bank, post office, restaurants and pubs on the resort grounds. The resort is about 20km from all the attractions.
All of the places listed below are on the resort and all include free airport transfers, free use of the resort shuttle and kids 15 and under stay free in their parents’ room on existing bedding. All of the guests on the resort can participate in a free Indigenous Activities Program.
