The Challenge
On January 9, 2018, massive debris flows crashed through Montecito, destroying nearly everything in its paths resulting in a city-wide state of emergency. Forbes’ five-star San Ysidro Ranch resort was one of the hardest hit in the area, devastated by the deadly avalanche of mud which damaged and destroyed half of the property’s 41 cottages. All technology including cabling, wifi, server room, pc’s and servers were completely swept away.
Working hand in hand with the hotel’s senior operation and construction personnel, Nexplay was engaged to design & build new network infrastructure along with guest room technology in time for an aggressive re-opening launch date.
