2021 Western Neurosurgical Society Meeting

Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort and Spa
Albuquerque, New Mexico
September 10-13, 2021

Yes, Virginia, we will have a physical in-person meeting of the Western in New Mexico in 2021. As the above picture suggests, we won’t be in a metropolis like we were in 2019 but in a pueblo convenient to Albuquerque.

The Tamaya resort is 31.5 miles north of the Albuquerque airport on an ancient pueblo and travel to the resort is by rental car, Uber/Lyft ($28-35) or Taxi ($55) or limousine service ($89; 1 888 644-4514). Self-parking is free; valet is $18 + tax/night; all parking is outside.

Our standard room rate is a friendly $269/night for a 377 sq. ft. room with a patio or balcony with free wi-fi and a fridge. One or two kids can stay in room with you for $294 and $319 respectively (rollaway $25/night in King/bedrooms only). One bedroom Executive suites (754sf) available for $519 (plus $25/night for each kid) and can accommodate 2 kids on a pull out sofa/bed or add a rollaway. All rooms are subject to a 14.875% local taxes fee. We have arranged for no resort fee. Our special link to reserve rooms is available at

Afternoon activities will be sightseeing, river boating, a great tram ride, horseback and bicycle riding in addition to the usual golf and tennis. Our Saturday night casual dinner will be at the Balloon Museum in Albuquerque (picture below).

The meeting registration form is on our Website at westnsurg.org.

It will be great to see old friends in September after the meetings lockdown for most of 2020. We hope that with vaccines now being available to everyone over the age of 12, meeting restrictions will be minimal for our meeting. Currently, no masks or social distancing are required at the resort including unvaccinated children.
