to get started.

Room was good as was location tours and trips were easy to book

John, Australia

Service was fantastic and staff were very friendly and helpful. The resort and its attractions were first class. Would definitely come back and also recommend friends and family to visit the resort and stay at Desert Garden Resort. 🤗

Lip, Australia

Great location, rooms were recently renovated and were clean, well setup, comfortable. Food at Ilkari and Mangata was very good too. Can't beat the location!

Lee, Australia

Area where our room was- was very quiet (away from the main hotel) and had view of the rock.

Leonie, Australia

Everyone from the restaurant and room service were just lovely. The room was really clean and warm when we arrived, which was really appreciated considering it was freezing outside.

Celine, Australia

Very friendly staff members who were very helpful.

Rebecca, Australia

We loved the surrounding bush garden setting the large room with two large comfortable beds and the laundry facilities.

Christine, Australia

I really liked how modern the rooms were and how friendly and helpful everyone working there was. The food at the restaurant was fantastic! The drinks are good value for money along with the portions sizes!

Jarsta007, Australia

Location was perfect as expected but the rest of the resort was built like a school and certainly not a 4.5*

Charlotte, Australia

If management changed the white lights in the dining/breakfast/bar area to warm white bulbs 3000-3300K, you will make the areas warm and inviting rather than the clinical/commercial look. This is a relatively cheap fix but the effect is instant and so much better. Try and let us know reaction from guests. best wishes

눉1) Our room had a view on the pool which wasn't great because we had to keep the curtains closed. 2) the guy at the reception desk wasn't very useful. I asked about the Accor loyalty card and he replied 'if we don't travel much he wouldn't recommend it' but we this happened in Uluru, so obviously we are interested in travel.
눇Everyone from the restaurant and room service were just lovely. The room was really clean and warm when we arrived, which was really appreciated considering it was freezing outside.
