10/10 Exceptional

Comfort in stunning surroundings

We opted for a 2-bedroom chalet with kitchenette and found it suited us perfectly. It was comfortable and good value considering its location in the magnificent Flinders Ranges. We ate dinner at the restaurant once and found it very good, as was the daily breakfast there. The pool is an welcome added bonus.

Lovely spot

Lovely spot, very friendly staff, food very good ( but the dinner took 1:15 hrs to arrive after ordering).
Gilbert, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a fabulous stay glamming at Wilpena Pound. Staff were very friendly and helpful right from the minute we arrived, including providing hints and tips of places to visit and what to do over our stay. It was wonderful to wake up surrounded by the sights and sounds of the Flinders Ranges.

Great experiences

A two night stay enabled a great experience of what Wilpena could offer. From the Gorges tour to the Sacred Valley, wonderful and informative guides, spotting wildlife, excellent meals, friendly staff and a comfortable room - we will be back to do more
Rodney, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wilpena Pound Resort is legendary for a reason. It's in an amazing location, with a wealth of different accommodation options. We stayed in the 'safari' tents, which exceeded my expectations. As it was peak summer, with temperatures reaching 40 degrees, it was a huge relief to come back to an air-conditioned room, with access to a high quality bathroom.

6/10 Good

Property was clean and comfortable but a bit tired.
Elizabeth, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Basic but clean ammenities. Would’ve love a toaster and a bit of cutlery for late night snacks but other than that. Really great staff , quiet rooms, had a takeaway meal from the restaurant ordered kangaroo and it was absolutely cooked to perfection. Overall very happy
Shelley, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

rooms were ok and staff lovely. What let the experience down was lack of wifi in rooms, no crockery or cutlery other than cups and spoons, and no toaster which was disappointing
4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property was lovely, set in the heart of Wilpena Pound. Our original booking included a room with a kitchen but there were renovations going on so instead we were given complimentary meals which was very generous
Jennifer, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our aroona room was basic and a bit dated. The shower worked well though and the toiletries were wonderful. Thankyou for the options to make our own healthy breakfasts but work on hot brekki options. A bit of creativity in options will make for a great morning start.
Garry, 4-night trip
