The conference hotel – the Loews Ventana Canyon Resort – is the best choice for ease in getting to the conference events on time. There are no other hotels or restaurants within walking distance, so transportation would be needed if you plan to stay off site. For your convenience, IASD has committed to a limited block of 152 discounted rooms for a special group rate of $115 per night (along with some special upgrade pricing), so please register early so we can provide a discounted space for you. We strongly recommend that you stay there, both for your convenience as well as helping IASD to meet our commitment and avoid our becoming responsible for unsold or cancelled rooms. Note lodging registration for our discounted block ends 30 June so don’t wait till the last minute. We also have secured these discounted rates (on a space available basis) for the 3 days before and after the conference for those who want to travel around the area (see Attractions page) or enjoy the resort.

LOEWS RESORT RESTAURANTS
Note that meals are “on-your-own” either at the IASD Buffet provided by Loews in the Kiva Ballroom, or in the hotel restaurants (below) or in your room via room service. We highly recommend you take advantage of the IASD Buffets for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner in order to gather as a group as well as provide the best chance of making it back for the next sessions. The Kiva ballroom is just across from the main building next to the Flying V. Note that if you plan to use the hotel restaurants at time, check with the desk first since opening times and days of the week of the hotel restaurants may change..
