Hotel in Yulara NT 0872, Australia
Longitude 131
Luxury tented camp with stunning Uluru views from private balconies. Includes all meals, premium beverages, and guided Uluru experiences in ultimate outback glamping style.
Longitude 131° is a celebrated luxury tented camp within the Ayers Rock Resort precinct at Yulara, Northern Territory, positioned to offer unobstructed views of Uluru (Ayers Rock) and Kata Tjuta (the Olgas) across the red desert landscape. The property is widely regarded as Australia's most prestigious outback glamping destination, earning Two MICHELIN Keys recognition and consistent placement on Condé Nast Traveller's Gold List for its combination of architectural refinement and cultural immersion.
The camp comprises sixteen air-conditioned tented pavilions elevated on stilts above the desert floor, each with a private timber deck oriented directly toward Uluru. Interiors feature polished timber floors, freestanding baths, fine linen, and curated artworks from Indigenous Australian artists. Rates are fully inclusive, covering all meals, premium beverages (wines, spirits, and non-alcoholic options), guided Red Centre experiences, and return transfers from Yulara Airport.
Dining at Longitude 131° is a key element of the experience. Dune House, the property's main gathering space, serves elevated Australian cuisine drawing on desert-foraged and regional ingredients, with a degustation menu that evolves seasonally. Breakfast is served on the pavilion deck or in the main dining area as the sun rises behind Uluru — a frequently cited highlight by returning guests.
Guided experiences organised by the property include sunrise and sunset walks at the base of Uluru, cultural tours led by Anangu guides interpreting the rock's spiritual significance within the Tjukurpa law system, helicopter flights over Uluru and Kata Tjuta, and stargazing sessions beneath some of the Southern Hemisphere's darkest skies. Spa Kinara delivers body treatments drawing on desert botanicals, and a small pool provides midday relief from the desert heat.
The property works in close partnership with the Anangu traditional owners, and a portion of proceeds supports Indigenous community programs in the region. Climbing Uluru has been permanently prohibited since October 2019 at the Anangu people's request; all activities offered by the property respect this cultural requirement.
