Craftcation Conference 2020 is now SOLD OUT!

• The Ventura Beach Marriott: This is the site of Craftcation. Some nights of our discounted room block are sold out (unfortunately the Marriott has already released the maximum number of rooms under our block). You can try booking online here BUT we suggest: calling the Marriott at 805-643-6000 to book over the phone (tell them you’re attending Craftcation) and they will assist you in booking as many nights as possible under our discounted rate and the remainder of the nights at the regular rate. If the Marriott is sold out of our discounted room block for your selected nights:
• Find a roommate who has a room reserved already: Try to find a roommate that already has a room by posting in our Private Craftcation Attendee & Alumni Online Community. Note: you must be a registered attendee to join this group.
• Stay at a nearby hotel: Many attendees stay at other nearby hotels. Chance are you’ll be in good company with other Craftcation attendees at one of these spots! Here are some alternative places to stay:

Waypoint Ventura: Vintage trailers near the beach. We’ve never stayed there but it’s looks awesome!
The Pierpont Inn: a two-minute drive from the Marriott. We’ve stayed there before and we liked it’s quaint atmosphere, cottages and manicured grounds. It recently changed ownership and we haven’t been there since but they have great ocean views and a historic vibe.
The Crowne Plaza: It’s a three-minute drive to the Marriott. This was the former home of Craftcation. It’s right on the beach and they have lots of patio seating overlooking the ocean. Walkable to downtown Ventura.
The Best Western: It’s a three-minute drive to the Marriott. This is a great old-school style motor inn that was renovated a few years ago to bring back the retro charm. Walkable to downtown Ventura.
Booking a vacation rental: Many attendees get a group together (either friends they’re bringing or new friends they meet in our private online attendee & alumni community (you’ll be invited to join it in your registration confirmation email) and rent an Airbnb or a VRBO.
*There are tons of other hotels in Ventura as well, these are just a few we suggest.
