MIAMI
The Trump Organization announced it will purchase Miami's Doral Hotel & Country Club for $150 million. An extensive, multi-million dollar renovation is now on tap for the hotel; it’s slated for completion in late 2013. Meanwhile, Trump will take over the management of the property and assume operations by June.
The renovation will reposition all aspects of the resort, including hotel rooms, and offer an enhanced guest experience throughout the public spaces. Renovation of the main building, lodges, conference areas, spa and Champions Pavilion will set a new tone for the resort, while the Members' Clubhouse will be redesigned to include upgraded facilities and amenities.
Doral Country Club includes 700 hotel rooms across 10 lodges; more than 86,000 square feet of meeting space, including a 25,000-square-foot ballroom; a 50,000-square-foot spa with 33 treatment rooms; six food and beverage outlets; retail stores and a private members' clubhouse.
Doral also has four championship golf courses, including the Blue Monster, and a Golf School and teaching facilities. All four golf courses will be enhanced, and the driving range will be lengthened and expanded to more than twice its current size.
