We went on July last year. The complex has accommodation to suit most budgets from backpacker to 5 star. We stayed in the 5 star hotel but were at the camp ground for dinner over 3 nights.
They actually have an astronomy tour that runs most nights, they have 2 c11's on site.
I wouldn't go through summer, 40 deg days and the pool heats up to same, so no relief. April-Oct is best time.
We walked around the rock (11kms) rather than climb it, likewise, there are at least 2 fantastic walks at Kata juta each around the 3hr mark. Do the camel tour near hotel as well, interesting history.
Allow at least 2 full days on the ground at uluru (3nights). You can do a round trip and fly direct, then hire a car through to Alice and fly home from there. Kings canyon on the way to Alice is spectacular (2 nights, 1day)
