Australia
Deluxe
Luxury Lodge

Overview

Longitude 131° commands spectacular views of the World Heritage-listed wilderness area of Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. Above floats a great expanse of southern sky, where constellations reveal the stories and legends of the local Anangu people, before fading away at dawn as you awake to witness your own private sunrise over Uluru.

Just sixteen safari-style tented accommodations sit elevated atop rust-red dunes, complementing the pristine natural environment and providing a private place to rest, relax and refresh. A spacious ensuite bathroom with oversized rain shower features a moving wall panel, so the spectacular view can be enjoyed from every angle. All tents feature king beds, wi-fi and climate control ensuring true comfort in the midst of the Outback. Each luxury tent also has its own deck with day beds, armchairs and fireplaces, so you can sleep out under the stars.

During your stay you can delve into the foundation of Anangu culture and explore this irresistible land with a choice of included activities and experiences. Enjoy relaxing spa treatments using native bush ingredients or just kick back and watch the ever-changing colours of the Outback as day turns to night.

Dining

Longitude 131° offers the best of contemporary Australian cuisine, utilising native bush ingredients for an authentic flavour of the Outback. Breakfast begins early with freshly baked pastries, fruit and a la carte menu selection. Premium espresso coffee and a generous selection of fine leaf teas are signature elements. After a morning filled with walks, or simply spent relaxing with a book by the pool, appetites are up for lunch. The three-course menu offers a selection of seasonal treats and is deceptively light, leaving room for afternoon tea served to coincide with the departure of the afternoon activity. Dinner is a superb dining experience, be it under the canopy of the Dune House, or a billion sparkling stars at Table 131°.

Conservation and community at Longitude 131°

The property practices sustainable initiatives and each guest tent has been carefully designed to have minimal impact on the delicate natural environment, standing lightly upon the red sand dunes. Solar panels on each tent provide hot water heating, whilst a major solar installation at Ayers Rock Resort generates about 15% of Yulara’s average energy use, reducing the reliance on fossil fuels.

Other initiatives include separation of recycling goods, the use of recycled water for gardens, using food compost from the kitchen on garden beds and growing a selection of fresh produce onsite to lessen their carbon footprint.

Longitude 131° works with several Aboriginal arts communities to source the vibrant local artworks you’ll see around the lodge, from ceramics to painted canvases, spears and weavings. The lodge has a special partnership with Ernabella Arts in the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands whose artists regularly paint in residence.
