The Association has reserved accommodation at the Catalina Lakefront Retreat and Conference Centre located adjacent to the ramp. We have secured these rooms at a flat rate of $92.00 per person, per night. Most of the rooms will have shared bathroom facilities and queen or king-single beds.  

If you want five-star accommodation there are options available in the area.
