From the travel guide. Select a place for details, a map and what is nearby.
The most central lookout, Imalung has excellent views of Uluru and partial views of Kata Tjuta. It is crowded but not unbearable at sunrise and sunset.
Pioneer has excellent views of Uluru.
Good views of the town, as the most northern lookout it has somewhat more distant views of Uluru.
Bruce Munro's Tili Wiru Tjuta Nyakutjaku (‘looking at lots of beautiful lights’) is a light sculpture the size of seven football fields that visitors can walk in in the dark. The exhibition must be accessed via bus from the resorts.
At the shopping centre. Decent pizzas, pastas and burgers for around $20.
Sells burger patties from several different kinds of meat (and non-meat) and grills to cook them on. A fairly decent all-you-can-eat salad and fruit bar is also included in the purchase price, meaning that for around $25 you can stuff yourself silly — quite a bargain by Yulara standards. There is a bar with live music in the eating area featuring "The Aussie Bush Music Show".
Tent sites, powered sites and cabins. A cabin is $150 per night and sleeps up to six people. A campsite for two people is $15.50 for a powered site and $13 for a tent site. Each additional person on a campsite is $11.50 per night, or $6 per for children.
Nice hotel, comfortable rooms and a beautiful pool. Some rooms have views of Uluru.
These fully serviced apartments accommodate about six people.
Chic and funky with many on-site restaurants, but quite small rooms.
The only 5-star hotel in Yulara, but despite the swish lobby and public areas, the rooms more closely resemble a motel. Pool and three expensive restaurants.
With a maximum capacity of 30 guests and twice that many staff, what is quite possibly the most expensive hotel in Australia consists of 15 safari-style permanent tents, each directly facing Uluru. Rates include Uluru tours and all meals — or if you really don't want to mix with the hoi polloi, why not rent the whole thing for a mere $61,000/night?
