The Blacklighters Opal Retreat-Undergound, hotel in Coober Pedy

Providing a garden, The Blacklighters Opal Retreat-Undergound offers accommodations in Coober Pedy. This property offers access to a patio and free private parking.

Didn't like a thing! It was the worst place we stayed in our 3 week holiday. We stayed at another place in Coober Pedy on our way North, same price point, entirely different experience. Cannot recommend this place in any way!! There are much better places (at the same price) to stay in Coober Pedy. Do not stay here! It was cold, dirty, delapitated and owner could not be contacted. It was absolutely pot luck (& a kind neighbour) who knew where they left the key and was able to let us in.

    Much of the town being underground is something worth experiencing, the people were friendly and helpful, and we visited in April during cooler weather and it was pleasant. We have previously been there in the heat of summer and it's NOT so nice, dusty and hot, which is obviously why most of the town live underground. The nearby Breakaways Conservation Park is definitely worth visiting; you can do a round trip through the Breakaways from Coober Pedy in around 90 mins including at least 30m at the various lookouts and photo vantage points. The colours from brilliant white to deep reds is amazing and the area is so different to the surrounding arid land. The food and service at the Big Winch is superb and it's also a great vantage point to see the town and surrounding area from. I would also recommend John's Pizza Bar in the main street and the Outback Bar and Grill attached to one of the servos serves decent grub too, as well as signature Outback Shiraz (from the Barossa Valley) for about $25/bottle that went down well. Definitely a better town in the cooler months if you dislike the heat.

    We stayed two nights, which meant one full day.

    We stayed two nights, which meant one full day. Next time I would put in either 3 or 4 nights, giving 2 or 3 full days. In our one day we saw one mine, drove out to the Salt & Pepper rock formation, then had time for some drone shots above some of the mine hills out on the highway. The evening before that, we at least saw sunset from the Big Winch, which was a great introduction to the town. Another day would enable another mine visit at the very least ... since the mines are the most interesting thing about Coober Pedy.

    Coober Pedy is a opal mining capital of the world. It is an interesting place to visit for a day or two to learn about its mining history, specific life in the Australian desert and to experience a true outback.

    We have now stopped twice at Coober Pedy, once for lunch and fuel, and this time for an overnight sleep driving to Darwin and have no desire to ever return. Only reason to go there if you really need to stay underground or are interested in the mining history. The town has nothing to recommend itself.

    Our favourite place for dining was the Big Winch 360 with a wide variety on the menu. The food was delicious too. Our favourite places were the Breakaways which we visited twice in our three days stay. This was by far the highlight of our visit. We also visited the following exciting places: 1. Underground Serbian Ortgodox church 2. Underground Catholic Church 3. Old Timers Mine 4. Umoona Opal Mine and Museum It is very easy to get around Coober Pedy

    Wow how stunning! Feels like you’re walking into the flinstones house then smacked with gorgeous modern interior mixed with the uniqueness of the underground! The host was super easy to communicate with, the cleaners do an unreal job- seriously spotless place not a spec of dust or dirt. If you know Coober Pedy, that’s damn near impossible! Super cosy, warm, beautiful interior and location was fantastic. Honestly the value for money is insane! My pup and I enjoyed our stay very much, I wish we booked for longer!

    Our stay at 894 Holly Court was just brilliant. For our first time staying in Coober Pedy we were a bit nervous about staying underground, but Holly Court put all those fears at rest the minute we walked through the door. The house was beautiful and very large. All rooms were exceptionally furnished, the kitchen was lovely and the bathroom was stunning. Couldn't have asked for more.

    If you go to Coober Pedy you really need to stay in a dugout. Ali's dugout is well furnished, clean, comfortable and in a great location for the sunrise. We met Ali (pronounced Alley) and she is a terrific hostess. Ensuring we had an enjoyable stay was a priority for her. I'm going back one day and hope her home is available then.

    We loved it was an underground house. It was spacious and has all mod cons. The house was secure with a gate and plenty of room to park. It had an outdoor entertaining area for those great hot nights. Close to town and a great experience if you are visiting Coober Pedy for the first time.

    Fantastic underground B&B. Long tunnel entrance, spacious rooms and unique bathroom setting. This place is a couple of kms out of Coober Pedy but it’s probably better than being in town. Local couple looked after us very well.
