With just 15 private luxury tents, experience unprecedented personal attention and serenity. A white dome roof and flowing fabric draped from the centre of each tent creates the illusion of camping.

The flick of a bedside switch is all it takes to raise the blinds and watch the spectacular moods of Uluru at sunrise. Meticulously designed to remain cool in summer and warm in winter, guests enjoy reverse cycle air-conditioning, luxury interiors, Bose Sound System with iPod connectivity, mini-bar and tea and coffee making facilities and spectacular views of Uluru. Each elevated tent pays homage to an early Australian pioneer or explorer, with visual narratives adorning the walls that are central to the unique interior design.

Included in the Longitude 131° experience is accommodation; all meals; a selected range of premium alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages; an exceptional touring program designed exclusively for Longitude 131° guests; entrance to Uluru - Kata Tjuta National Park, and return Ayers Rock Airport transfers.
