Our accommodation
As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic booking accommodation at Uluru was problematic on two grounds. The indigenous population is believed to be particularly vulnerable so that any evidence of community transmission is sufficient to close the Territory border. And because Australians, who love to travel overseas, have been kept home most Australian tourist resorts are fully booked months ahead.
The only accommodation available at Yulara (Ayres Rock Resort) was at the comfortable, three-star, 'Lost Camel'. Bizarrely, all the windows are frosted - even in those rooms with a potential view of the swimming pool or the surrounding countryside. Otherwise, the rooms are quite large with a sitting area and well-appointed with large comfortable beds; good linen; good showers with all the usual little bottles and soaps; a small fridge; and tea/coffee making.
Yulara (Ayres Rock Resort) - hotels in the distance
At Alice Springs we booked two apartments at an apartment hotel, each with a sitting room and kitchenette complete with washing machine (for clothes).
Alice on Todd Apartments
At the Kings Canyon Resort, where there is little choice, as it is all one establishment, we booked two 'luxury' cabins that were conveniently close to the restaurant - facilitating big breakfasts and two, enjoyable, well-oiled evening meals - extending until throw-out time.
