Quality and size of room was excellent. Recently renovated. We stayed on the 3rd floor - lower floor rooms seemed smaller. Resort was easy to get around, restaurant (s) were good quality - some service was average ( slow ) , but overall was OK. Staff friendly and helpful. Poolside bar / food facility seemed understaffed, and only opened for 3 to 4 hours daily ( perhaps a COVID recovery issue! ). Overall the experience was good. Would definitely stay again!

Hi all, To be frank, accommodation and restaurant were OK (OK but not exceptional), but the customer service was a disaster. Our room was not ready in due time (surprisingly, because the hotel was far from full capacity), concierge was not aware of our side booking (field of light) and tried to charge it on our room (while we had booked everything on the Ayers Rock website), during the check-out, some of the previous guest bills were charged on our room (with no signature or a different from mine), it took nearly 30 min to fix that out and we were close to miss the plane. Unfortunately Sails was the only hotel open in Yulara at the time, if you have the choice, choose another one (which sadly may belong also to the Accord group….).

This was the hotel for our weekend getaway from Mackay. A well appointed hotel with our room having recently been refurbished. Usual features expected of a hotel of this nature. Well mannered staff. An array of restaurants and facilities such as pools and well cared for grounds. Would stay again.
