Trump International Golf Links & Hotel Ireland, formerly Doonbeg Golf Club, is a traditional links-type course situated to the north of Doonbeg in County Clare, Ireland. Designed by Greg Norman and opened in 2002, the geography was hardly changed as the course was fitted into the area provided.[1] The complex hosts a 5-star hotel, spa, cottages and reception rooms.

History

In February 2014, the lodge and golf club was bought by American businessman Donald Trump for an estimated €15M. The Lodge at Doonbeg, which consists of 218 hotel suites, a spa and several restaurants will be managed by the Trump Hotel Collection.[2] Later, as a US presidential candidate he claimed at a campaign rally that he bought it during an economic downturn in Ireland, that it was a good investment, but that he didn't care about it anymore and compared his investment with 'small potatoes.'[3]

Then Irish Minister for Finance, Michael Noonan, was criticized for participating in a red-carpet welcoming party for Donald Trump when the latter visited Ireland after completing the purchase.[4]

Controversies

The business applied for permits to construct a {{convert|2.8|km|adj=on}} sea wall to protect the property, citing "global warming and its effects", although Trump himself denies the existence of global warming.[5] The plan attracted strong opposition from environmentalists due to concerns that it would adversely affect the Special Area of Conservation status of the site,[6]

and was withdrawn in December 2016.[7] In December 2017, permission was granted for two smaller barriers, of {{convert|630 and 260|m}}.[8]

Ownership

On assuming the office of United States president in January 2017, Trump and his daughter Ivanka resigned as directors of the golf complex; his sons Eric and Donald Jr. remained.[9][10][11]
