He's the Boy Who Cried Wolf at this point - if everything you touch is proclaimed to be "THE GREATEST THING EVER," eventually aren't you contradicting yourself? ;)

Trump Hotel Collection has recently added Miami's iconic Doral Golf Resort & Spa to its portfolio with plans for a spectacular multimillion-dollar renovation to restore Doral to its former grandeur. Doral boasts 693 guestrooms across 10 lodges; 5 world-class golf courses including the TPC Blue Monster; 90,000-sq.-ft. of meeting space including a 24,000-sq.-ft. ballroom; a sprawling 48,000-sq.-ft. spa with 33 treatment rooms; highly regarded golf school and teaching facilities; 6 signature; extensive retail boutiques and a private members' clubhouse.

The extensive renovation will dramatically reposition all aspects of this sprawling 650-acre resort. Renown golf course architect, Gil Hanse has been retained to work directly with Donald J. Trump and the PGA leadership to enhance and renovate the Blue Monster, one of the most famous golf courses in the world and home to the PGA Tour for over fifty years and host to the Word Golf Championships Cadillac Championship.

Trump Hotel Collection took over management of the property and assumed operations June 2012. The property will remain fully operational throughout the renovation, which is expected to conclude in Fall 2013.

"When completed, Doral will be the finest resort and golf club in the country." according to Donald J. Trump, Trump Organization chairman and president

Marriott successfully negotiates Doral Resort and Spa Amenities Agreement.

Access and usage of amenities for the Trump owned and managed property will continue. The only change was chargebacks will no longer be possible.

That doesn't sound like a big deal since now you can't get MR points from Marriott charges anyways at the Trump facility.

The blue monster will start renovations immediately following the March 2013 Caddilac Championship. It will be unavailable for the remaining part of 2013.

There will also be construction in the adjacent parcel to the Villas starting later this year and lasting about 18 months.

Trump is investing a huge sum of money to make the Doral a great new place.

Good for Marriott Owners as well.

It is difficult to ever accuse Trump of being mediocre, even if he puts his money where his hair is.

From the looks of that mop, I seriously doubt he's ever spend any money there. :ignore:
