To escape the extreme heat, most of Coober Pedy’s residents live in underground houses that are tunnelled out of the sandstone surrounds. So why not do what the locals do and spend a night in a purpose-built underground motel?

Built 10 metres below ground level, the Radeka Downunder Motel provides its guests with a tranquil, quiet atmosphere that allows you to relax underground while the town works above you. The Radeka Downunder Motel is located in the centre of town, within walking distance of shops and local attractions.
