Please book the Pavilion Hotel and the Hotel Atwater ASAP (the deadline has already passed, but they are still taking a few more reservations). Catalina Canyon Resort & Spa can be booked up until July 5th.

The walk from the Pavilion Hotel Yellow Dot and Hotel Atwater Blue Dot to the main conference at the Casino Red Dot is approximately 10 minutes.

Catalina Canyon Resort & Spa Green Dot has the advantage of being located at the site of the tutorials and the Causality and StarAI workshops. However, it is an extra 10 minute walk to the main conference. The Bayesian Modeling and Natural Intelligence workshops are being held at the Catalina Country Club Blue Dot.

The banquet will be held at the Casino Ballroom Red Dot (moved from Descanso beach club Pink Dot).

Cars are not allowed on the island but there are bicycle and golf cart rental agencies.
