Sponsorship
All eligible patrons may sponsor hotel guests not otherwise eligible. In addition to the sponsor’s room, the sponsor may reserve three additional rooms (total of four rooms). Requests for five or more rooms must be submitted to the hotel’s Group Coordinator.
Reservations made by a sponsor must be made in the name of the sponsor, not in the name of the guest. The guest’s name will be added to the reservation.
At check in, the sponsor must be present and present his or her ID to verify eligibility; the ID must match the name on the reservation. Each sponsored guest must also present a valid ID to verify his or her identity.
Sponsored rooms are $10 more per night if sponsor is not staying in the hotel.
We do not assist in arranging gate access for the sponsor’s guest(s). This is the responsibility of the sponsor. However, we will provide the necessary information to assist the sponsor in doing so.
Base Access
All visitors requesting unescorted access must be vetted prior to being granted entry onto the installation. Contact the Sloat Main Gate Office at 831-656-3643 for information. Customer service hours are Monday through Friday 0730-1130 and 1200–1500.
Military active-duty and their dependents, retired military, reservists, civil service employees and approved contractors who possess valid DoD identification cards are considered Trusted Agents and may sponsor guests requesting unescorted access to the base. A Trusted Agent and all occupants in the Trusted Agent's automobile can enter the base if the Trusted Agent shows a valid DoD ID card at an NSA gate. However, without unescorted access, visitors/guests MUST always be escorted by Trusted Agents until the visitors/guests leave the installation and the sponsor must take full responsibility for them and their actions.
