The 2011 North American Beekeeping Conference with be a joint convention between the American Honey Producers Association and the American Beekeeping Federation in Galveston, Texas, at the San Luis Resort, January 3-9, 2011. Check back to this website in a couple of days to get hotel reservation information.
There are 3 motels in the Resort. The Hilton is the closest hotel to the Galveston Convention Center. Only about 50 steps between facilities. The largest hotel is the San Luis Resort Hotel which is a couple hundred yards away from the Galveston Convention Center where the meetings will be held. The 3rd motel on site is the Holiday Inn which is next door to the San Luis. Both the Hilton and the San Luis are 4 Diamond Hotels with a special Conference price of $99/night. The Holiday Inn is $89/night. We have arranged for complimentary shuttle service between all hotels and the convention center. You will be able to get back and forth between the Hotels and the Convention Center in a matter of seconds.
We believe most AHPA members may want to stay at the San Luis Resort unless you want to stay at the Hilton which is the closest hotel to the Convention Center, or if you want to save $10/night at the Holiday Inn. All hotels are very nice and every room in all 3 hotels face the Beach Front and the Gulf of Mexico!
The American Honey Producers plans to rent a special lounge at the San Luis Hotel in the evenings for a social gathering spot for beekeepers. You will be able to access this lounge from any hotel, however, it will be most convenient if you make your reservations at the San Luis Hotel.
