Wednesday dinner through lunch on Saturday. Meals included in the Full
Conference Package include dinner on Wednesday, all meals on Thursday
and Friday, and breakfast and lunch on Saturday. Asilomar lodging is
shared, with 2 to 4 people per room, unless you pay the extra private
room fee. If you don’t specify who you wish to room with, you
will be assigned from one to three roommates of your gender.
A Reminder:
Our ability to remain at Asilomar and expand is determined by filling
up the rooms on grounds. The more of you who stay with us, the more
our future here can develop successfully. Thanks! For those who feel
they must stay in a motel, however, we can again offer a “Full
Conference Package” at local motels with the same meals as above.

Lodging
- Asilomar
Set among Monterey pines and cypress, clusters of richly rustic wood
and stone buildings will house conference participants. Comfortable
rooms vary in size, with two to four persons per room. Rooms have private
showers and bedding is provided. Asilomar rooms DO NOT have telephones.
Rooms are available at 3pm on the day you arrive, but not before. Asilomar
lodging always includes the following meals with each night’s
stay: dinner on the night of stay, breakfast and lunch the next day.
Because not everyone is able to attend for the full time, we also offer
single night stays. A single night entitles you to the conference both
the day of and the day after your stay, and three meals.
As
a service to our attendees who do not wish to stay at the conference
site, we have booked a limited number
of rooms at two local motels (see below for descriptions) these rooms
are single or double occupancy plus meals as a package only. Contact
our office if you wish to reserve a suite for slightly more money, or
reserve the motel package without a meal pass.

Lodging
- Motels
We are offering a choice of two motels as part of our conference package.
If you do not wish to stay at Asilomar, this will provide you with proximity
to the conference and motel conveniences. All motel rooms have telephones
and televisions in the rooms, which the Asilomar rooms do not have.
All motel rooms we offer are now non-smoking.
The
Pacific Garden Inn is across the street from the conference center and
offers rooms with fireplaces, coffee-makers, and a continental breakfast.
Amenities include a choice of one or two queen-sized beds, two jacuzzis
and complimentary wine and cheese.
The
Deerhaven Inn is across from the entrance to the Asilomar grounds. Rooms
are modern and comfortable. They have a variety of rooms with either
king or queen-sized beds. Additionally some rooms are “Junior
Suites,” with a sitting area and kitchenette in addition to the
queen bed. Larger suites (one or two bedroom) are available by special
request from our office.
We
sell out of motel rooms before Christmas, so register early!

Roommates
If you don’t specify with whom you would like to share a room
on the registration form, you will be assigned roommates of the same
gender. (One bed is assigned per person). Spouses will be automatically
assigned together if they have the same last name or arrive in the same
envelope or fax, but all other roommates must be requested. If you wish
to request a roommate who is not registering at the same time as you,
you must be staying for exactly the same nights that they are, and make
sure that they have also requested you as their roommate. Roommate requests
will only be held for 2 weeks from receipt for the other roommate to
register.
We can honor other types of room requests, especially for early registrants.
These include specific buildings, older (and quainter) rooms, first
or second floor, and a queen instead of two double beds (there are no
king size beds). The later you register, the less flexibility we have
with your rooming needs.
