I do much the same. However, I have a Room Lighting automation that works well for my different modes/times EXCEPT when we want to relax out in the hot tub.
The main rule is based on time periods, and turns on all the outside lights when motion is active at any of my external motion sensors. But, when we are in the hot tub, we do not want the back floodlight popping on when the neighbors dog runs too close to our sensors, or when we run back and forth to get something to drink, etc. So, I duplicated the rule with all the lights except for the back floodlight. Then, I use a virtual switch to disable one rule and enable another. I can call the switch from Google, Alexa, Or use our dasshboard mounted next to the deck door.
