Palm Cay: There's an app for that

Thu, Nov 28th 2013, 05:09 PM

Palm Cay has sought to expand the different ways that its customers and property owners can engage with it by offering a new smart phone application that taps into its various offerings.
The Palm Cay app is the latest innovation by the developers of the nearly 70-acre seaside community on New Providence's southeastern shore.
It will allow those interested in the eastern New Providence development to do things such as book a tennis court, or check on dinner specials at the soon-to-open restaurant on the property, the Billfish Grill, from their phone.
"We've had such great success with our Facebook page with friends and fans following events, activities, images and news items we post," said Palm Cay Director of Sales and Marketing Zack Bonczek. "So we are taking it one step further expanding our communications with an app that allows a homeowner to reserve a tennis court for night play, for instance, or an interested party to book an appointment to see a lot or townhome. When the Billfish Grill opens, you'll be able to check on lunch and dinner specials, reserve a table, order ahead for take-out, even. It's all about making it easy to keep in touch and feel connected."
Developers of the community with some 300-plus home sites, townhomes, condos and plans for other residential offerings already reach out through every social media available - Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook.
"We're all about building a community and the best way to do that is make it easy and convenient for everyone to connect," says Bonczek. Through Facebook and word-of-mouth alone, Palm Cay was drawing upwards of 80 people to its Friday night family happy hours and Saturday lunches and beach days. Those activities are temporarily suspended because of the construction as the three-story clubhouse is being converted into a full-fledged restaurant. To be called Billfish Grill, the restaurant will be operated by Lise Watson-Russell, who founded Chives at the New Providence Community Centre, Blake Road, and restaurant and hospitality consultant Peter Rounce whose experience includes Graycliff.
The $200 million fully-funded development now has all roads, lights and utilities in place and more than half the home sites have been sold. Phase I of the first condo offering, The Anchorage, was oversubscribed when the announcement that reservations were open was made.
