Samphire Rottnest

Accommodation at Samphire is to be booked via registration on this conference website. Note, this is different to the last conference where accommodation was booked directly with the conference venue.

Discover the barefoot luxury and beachfront allure of Samphire Rottnest, a boutique accommodation nestled in the heart of Thomson Bay. With 80 spacious rooms available, each has been thoughtfully designed to complement the natural surroundings, offering an understated modern luxury. From the comfort of your room, marvel at the island's beauty from your own private balcony or deck.

Step outside and traverse the native landscaping, or unwind in the stylish poolside cabanas. The pool offers heated waters in the warmer months and refreshing cool temperatures over the summer. Our conference provides specifically assigned accommodation for our participants. However, availability is limited, so we recommend booking early. Reserving directly through our site entitles you to exclusive discount offers for specific rooms during the conference days. A delightful breakfast will also be included with your stay.

Please see below the two rooms we offer at discounted prices. AASC 2024 has obtained discounted prices from Samphire, so get it through us at our payment page before rooms run out!

Samphire has accessible rooms suitable for guests with mobility requirements - please contact the committee if you would like one of these.

Other options

Please note that some facilities at the conference venue will only be accessible by attendees staying at the Samphire. Rottnest is large and has minimal transport options, so it is important to book accommodation near the Samphire in the Thomson Bay area of Rottnest.
