I recently stayed at this resort, and while the location near Wilpena Pound is truly stunning, the overall experience was mixed. The rooms were a bit outdated and needed some cleaning, but the service was generally quite good. Dining options could use more variety, but I really enjoyed the tours that highlighted local culture. Overall, it's a decent stay for exploring the area, but there are certainly areas for improvement.

Nestled in beautiful countryside, this resort offers great access to the surrounding nature. The staff here are genuinely nice, and while the chalets provide a comfortable stay, they do need some upgrades. Although the pool requires some cleaning and the dining experience could improve, it's still a place I'd recommend for nature lovers looking for an escape.

The location is absolutely stunning for exploring the Flinders Ranges, and the nature surrounding the resort is breathtaking. While the service in the restaurant was commendable, the conditions of the rooms left much to be desired, being old and poorly maintained. The dining options were also quite expensive and not very satisfying. Overall, it's a mixed bag-great location but disappointing facilities.

I enjoyed my stay, as the location is absolutely stunning, right in the heart of the outback, surrounded by incredible natural beauty. The room I stayed in was clean and had a cozy atmosphere, perfect for my family. However, there were some issues with cleanliness in the shared areas, which was disappointing. The restaurant offered exceptional meals, but the pool could use some improvement in maintenance.
