Santa Ynez Valley Visitors Association offers first-ever summer savings certificate

 

Good news for summer — with gas prices climbing like Mt. Everest, we may all be looking for ways to save and still take a vacation, or even a “stay-cation.”

Members of the Santa Ynez Valley Visitor’s Association are offering a 10 percent discount for mid-week specials through September 25.

Santa Ynez Visitor Association Executive Director Mary Harris says, “Summer is a wonderful time to escape the coastal fog and enjoy the golden hills, lush vineyards and all our attractions.”

Members offering 10 percent discounts, Monday through Thursday are: Ballard Inn and Restaurant, First Street Leather, Foley Estates Vineyard and Winery Tasting Room, Hadsten House Inn and Spa, PCPA Theaterfest at Solvang Festival Theater, Rancho San Marcos Golf Course, Santa Ynez Inn, Santa Ynez Valley Marriott, and Solvang Antique Center.

 

“The Santa Ynez Valley is a great place to stay and play, only a tank away from L.A.,” says Valley Association president Mike Hendrick, general manager of the Santa Ynez Valley Marriott Hotel.

“It’s so easy to click and print out the PDF that describes all the savings offered, and visitors can print out as many certificates as they like and use them as many times as they want,” added Harris.
