For elite private clubs, every detail of the guest experience matters. From the food and service to the environment itself, each element contributes to how members feel when they step onto the property. At Jonathan’s Landing Golf Club—one of the top clubs in Palm Beach County and the United States—the leadership team saw an opportunity to elevate that experience by reimagining their outdoor dining.
What started as an underused, uncovered patio has now become the club’s most-requested dining space, thanks to a collaboration with SYZYGY Global.
Jonathan’s Landing had a problem familiar to many clubs: a prime outdoor dining area that simply wasn’t being used. The Florida sun and unpredictable summer rain made the uncovered patio uncomfortable for members, and the space sat largely empty during peak months.
“We have a restaurant that’s open in the summer that did not have any coverage, and members really refused to sit outside,” Jonathan’s Landing Golf Club General Manager, Joe Dipasquantonio, explained. “We needed a solution that would allow our members to enjoy the space all year.”
Through networking in the Club Management Association of America (CMAA) and conversations with other general managers, Jonathan’s Landing learned about SYZYGY Global’s work at nearby clubs. A member who had installed SYZYGY Global’s pergolas at their own home reinforced the recommendation.
The club reached out, looking for an elegant, functional way to transform the patio.
The answer? A custom-designed, motorized pergola system featuring:
From the very first conversation, the SYZYGY Global team focused on one goal: turning a neglected space into an all-weather, revenue-generating destination.
Luxury construction projects often stretch timelines. Jonathan’s Landing expected this project to take about six months.
Instead, SYZYGY Global exceeded every expectation.
“The project came in three months earlier than we expected it to,” Dipasquantonio shared. “Our members were able to enjoy it that much quicker.”
This speed wasn’t about rushing—it was about SYZYGY Global’s streamlined process, from design and permitting to fabrication and installation. By handling everything in-house and leveraging the company’s advanced project management systems, SYZYGY Global moved from contract to completion in just 90 days.
While the design and engineering were sophisticated, the process felt effortless for the club.
“The design phase and working with SYZYGY was seamless—one of the easiest projects I’ve ever been a part of,” Dipasquantonio said. “The communication was great.”
That word—seamless—came up again and again in our conversations. From the very first design sketch to the final inspection, SYZYGY Global’s team made sure the club felt informed, supported, and excited about each stage.
The transformation was immediate.
“It used to be kind of an afterthought,” Dipasquantonio admitted of the space. “Now it’s a specifically requested dining space any given night.”
Members love the atmosphere: the breeze off the golf course, the comfort of shade, and the ability to linger outdoors no matter the weather.
“It’s quickly become our most popular outdoor dining space,” Dipasquantonio said. “Members love being out here.”
The impact goes beyond dinner reservations.
The covered space now supports events that were never possible before:
“It’s allowed us to basically utilize this space for things that we’ve never utilized it for before,” Dipasquantonio shared.
In short, SYZYGY Global’s pergola didn’t just add shade—it created an entirely new revenue stream.
Members aren’t just enjoying the space; they’re actively commenting on the details.
“Everything—from being able to control the way the sun’s coming down at the end of the night to the lighting and every aspect of the louver system—we’ve had comments from our members,” Dipasquantonio noted.
These aren’t just design touches; they’re part of what makes the space feel exclusive and intentional.
If Jonathan’s Landing were recommending SYZYGY Global to another club, hotel, or hospitality venue, what would they say?
“I would highlight the service to start,” Dipasquantonio said without hesitation. “The process from beginning to end to get the actual pergola in was seamless. Nowadays, construction projects do not usually go that quick. This thing was extremely quick, professional, well done—and it’s really added a whole other aspect to our food and beverage service that we never had.”
Jonathan’s Landing’s new pergola is more than a structure. It’s an example of how thoughtful design and precision engineering can reshape an entire business.
