Trump National Doral Miami is a golf resort in Doral in south Florida in the United States. It was founded by real estate pioneer Alfred Kaskel in 1962, with the name "Doral" coming from an amalgamation of the first names of Kaskel and his wife, Doris. It currently has 90 holes of golf and its signature course is the Blue Monster at Doral.
The resort consists of 800-acre (3.2 km2). Prior to its renovation, the club was reported to feature "four golf courses; 700 hotel rooms across 10 lodges; more than 86,000-square-foot (8,000 m2) of meeting space, including a 25,000-square-foot (2,300 m2) ballroom; a 50,000-square-foot (4,600 m2) spa with 33 treatment rooms; six food and beverage outlets; extensive retail; and a private members' clubhouse."
Trump National Doral Miami, formerly known as the Doral Country Club and Doral Golf Resort & Spa, was the sister hotel to the famous Doral Hotel on the ocean in Miami Beach, Florida.
At the peak of the housing market, a real estate fund had acquired the property. The property was then purchased, along with other resorts, by Paulson & Co. Around 2010, the Pritikin Longevity Center moved into the spa area of the Doral resort. In early 2011, Doral went into bankruptcy, with Paulson seeking Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection for the property.
In February 2012, the Trump Organization purchased the Doral Resort & Spa for $150 million. The purchase included four of the five golf courses. Trump has a $125 million mortgage on the property.
In 2016, Doral completed a $250 million renovation project.
Trump has "has been the target of dozens of liens" from contractors who worked on the renovation project. On May 20, 2016, a Miami-Dade County Circuit Court judge ordered Trump National Doral Miami to be foreclosed and sold on June 28 unless the Trump Organization paid $32,800 to a Miami paint supply company.
