It is truly a unique experience. When you take into account the remoteness of this location, it is quite a feat to have access to great food, clean water and a great team of people ready to help you have an enjoyable stay. The tents are quite nice, though not as good or well appointed as the ones you would find on safari in Africa. It can get very cold at night, and with no heating available, the tents can get VERY cold. The team are the highlight of the stay, they are super helpful and very friendly. Shout out to Liz, she is always, cheerful and amazingly remembers all your requests!

This was a sturdy tent with a comfortable bed and attached open air "private" bathroom. I read reviews on this property before booking, so my expectations were low. It was criticized as being over-priced for what you get. True, it is expensive, but considering the remoteness (the nearest town to an hour away) and there are no other accommodations other than for campers, I thought it was reasonable. The on-site restaurant was a big plus, otherwise you bring your own or go to Tom Price an hour away. I'd stay there again for the convenience and proximity to the sights at the park. The staff was also very helpful. Breakfast was very good.

I thought the accommodation was reasonable but the breakfast was poor for the amount of money payed per night. To get a cooked breakfast they were charging $29 for basic eggs. We stayed in the Eco Lodge in the Amazon Jungle and we had a big breakfast with a variety of fruit, cakes and freshly baked bread included in the price. If You want customers to return, you need to give them better service and food. Step up Australia.

Don't stay here unless you are made of money. I got fooled by the "luxury" in the title. In reality, you pay $300 for an old tent with rusty zips and a pretty basic outside bathroom complete with frogs. There is no fan, fridge or kettle, although for some reason they think it is helpful to leave you an empty thermos and esky. Don't get me wrong, these facilites would fine if it the price was reasonable. I would suggest staying in Tom Price instead.

Is a tent, expensive. You can feel the coldness as there is no wall and floor has vold air entering. Is an eco tent. Means you cannot use any high voltage equipment. Even kettle can trip the electricity. They called it Eco tent but they used a lot of disposable containers in their restaurant. Doesn't sound right

Close to nature Loved the stay A bit expensive Camping would have the same effect and a lot less expensive.

Fab location but need to be prepared for cold nights. Great food in the circumstances. Amazing

The ensuite tents at Karijini were very expensive, but they were remarkable and the setting/location wonderful (walking distance of one of the best gorges, Joffre). It would have helped to have had a bit more information about the amenities (no heating, no cooling, no fridge, no kettle, no mobile reception, no Internet, no power apart from light & battery charging - some of which we were told about). They did help by providing a Thermos which you could fill up at the Centre, and an Esky but you had to buy the ice. And the ensuite shower/toilet was open to the elements so quite cold and the shower head was awkward (but the water hot). The included continental breakfast was good, and the restaurant had some nice meals (though a limited menu). Despite these misgivings, the bed was very comfortable and warm, the verandah lovely to sit on at dusk and sip a wine, and we encountered no nasty critters! And what can you expect if you want to be in the middle of nowhere!

Not many b-b-q s and one of the two nearest to us would not look light.

Karijini Eco retreat and the park were both amazing. However travellers like us need to be aware that the Eco tents do not have a fridge and limited power Just enough to charge phones the staff at the village placed our frozen food In there freezer cannot speak highly enough about them
