North County hotels see quieter holiday season under COVID-19 restrictions [Santa Maria Times, Calif.]
Dec. 25 Northern Santa Barbara County hotels are experiencing major service restrictions this holiday season, amid an ongoing regional stay-at-home order imposed nearly three weeks ago in response to a surge in COVID-19 cases throughout the state.
The order has left hotels like the Wine Stone Inn in Orcutt in one of their most dire situations yet as a result of restrictions against not only indoor and outdoor dining, but also against non-essential travelers.
Wine Stone Inn General Manager Lauren Wise said bookings at the 12-room boutique hotel are down compared to past months, and restrictions on outdoor dining have rendered the hotel’s recently-installed fire pits and heaters unusable for the time being.

“As one of the largest employers in our county, we ve seen a predictable uptick in the number of team members who have been exposed to the virus while outside of our facility, as well,” said John Elliott, chief executive officer of the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians.
The majority of the current active cases involve employees under 30 years old, Elliott said, “and we are emphasizing extra vigilance among that cohort in following the scientifically proven methods to combat the spread of this virus.”
Earlier this year, Casino officials established the Safe + Well program to avoid spreading COVID-19.
