Since you graduated, the once-sleepy Santa Ynez Valley has transformed into a bustling vacation hotspot. However, local hotel rates have soared, with weekend nights costing $400 to $500.

We would be thrilled to host alumni on campus and hope you'll join your classmates in the dorms for a nostalgic experience. Rest assured, we'll provide all the necessary bedding to make your stay comfortable.

While we can’t replicate the luxury of a hotel, staying at Dunn offers an experience that’s easier, more cost-effective, and far more fun. It’s easier because most Alumni Weekend events take place right here on campus, eliminating the hassle of commuting. It’s more cost-effective, given the steep prices of local hotels. Plus, Dunn will provide complimentary meals, including breakfast on both Saturday and Sunday, as well as lunch on Saturday. Most importantly, it’s more fun—you’ll have more time to reconnect and create new memories with your classmates from your Dunn days.

We are offering rooms at $100 per night. If you’d like to share a double room with a partner, spouse, or even an old roommate, let us know, and we’ll make the arrangements. We’ve also received several requests for alumni to stay in their old dorm rooms, which we’re happy to accommodate whenever possible.
