How GolfNow helps Regatta Bay connect operations from booking to checkout

Discover how this Florida golf course plans for future growth and improves core operations with GolfNow for Business.

For Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club in Destin, Florida, GolfNow is more than a tee time platform. It is a central part of how the business operates.

“We’ve been partners with GolfNow since 2017,” said John Zeidner, Director of Operations at Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club. “The platform is very central to us.”

That central role comes from the way GolfNow connects key parts of the operation. For Regatta Bay, the platform supports the tee sheet, web interface, and point of sale—not only in the golf shop, but also across the club’s restaurant and food and beverage operation.

Connecting key systems

With its core systems integrated, Regatta Bay can manage daily operations through a more connected technology foundation.

“It’s all integrated,” Zeidner said. “The reporting and everything that you get from a centralized platform is very powerful for us.”

Centralized reporting gives the team a clearer view of the business, while connected tools help create a smoother experience across online booking, in-shop activity, and customer service.

Connecting the web experience with the shop experience

GolfNow also helps Regatta Bay bring together the online and on-property experience.

“It really kind of marries the web experience with the shop experience,” Zeidner said.

Golfers can self-serve and book tee times online, giving them the convenience to book when it works for them. At the same time, that automation helps the club continue filling its tee sheet around the clock while allowing shop staff to stay focused on customers who are already on premise.

That connected model supports both operational efficiency and business performance, helping Regatta Bay serve golfers while making the most of available tee time inventory. Opportunities to consistently reach golfers, drive bookings, and grow beyond your immediate market.

Built to support future growth

In addition to its golf course, Regatta Bay offers a world-class practice facility, including a range, chipping area, putting green, and indoor simulator room for recreation, lessons, training, and fitting.

“We have an appetite to grow our business, so where we are today is not where we plan to stay,” Zeidner said.

The GolfNow platform can also support simulator scheduling, booking, and billing, similar to the tee time engine. While Regatta Bay continues to grow its offerings, that flexibility gives the club room to evolve with the same connected technology foundation.

As Regatta Bay continues to expand, GolfNow gives the club an integrated platform to support daily operations, create a more connected golfer experience, and help the business keep moving forward.
