Situated across the front of the property, atop the hillside, all of our Coober Pedy apartments have been renovated and boast the most phenomenal view of our beautiful town. After a day of exploring the local attractions, you can sit down, relax and watch the sunset over our vast outback landscape. 

UNDERGROUND APARTMENTS

Our Coober Pedy apartments have been hand dug (jack-pick & gelignite) from the sandstone rock. This is an extremely long and labour-intensive process, but what you are left with is a more organic and natural look. This can be contrasted to dugouts that have been excavated with a tunnel machine. Both ways of digging out the rock showcase the appeal and rugged style of living underground. Rich with rusty hues and striking rock formations, our dugouts will take your breath away. 

 

Rates include 2 guests, additional guests are charged as follows:

EVERYTHING WAS JUST PERFECT

Reviewed by TrenaWgh

 

This was a brilliant place to stay. Such a novelty staying underground! Such friendly Staff, our room was warm, comfortable, and just awesome!, Added bonus is that you can walk outside and climb up the hill that the hotel is set in and have a wonderful view of the township.

Highly recommend staying here!

GREAT PROPERTY & FANTASTIC OVERNIGHT STAY

Reviewed by Jason

 

Great property and fantastic overnight stay. Fantastic location with views across town and scenery, rooms very comfortable and bathrooms recently renovated. Excellent value for money - I have stayed at five star airport hotels with rooms exactly the same as the Lookout Cave and paid triple the price. Very cool experience sleeping in a dugout motel. Extremely friendly family running the hotel with excellent local tips. Couldn’t fault it.
