Venue & Accommodation

Surf Speak - [Irie]
The state of nirvana for Rastafarians. Made popular by Marley...the Grandaddy of the ol' school Rasta crew.

This year we have chosen a conference-and-accommodation combined venue for your
convenience - and because you asked us to!

The Hyatt Regency Coolum is a well-known and much-loved location between the mountain and
the sea - literally - in the stunning southern region of the Sunshine Coast. It's a beautiful natural setting and the hotel and conference facilities are outstanding, particularly since an upgrade and some new facilities have recently been completed. Have a look at the hotel's picture gallery here

Here are the details of the rooms available for you under the special block-booked conference
rates - valid until 16th January 2009. After this the block bookings will be released and the
rooms are strictly subject to availability (same special rate still applies). GST is included in these rates.

We have negotiated for these special rates to apply for delegates staying for up to
2 additional nights either side of the 17th, 18th and 19th March, subject to availability.
