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. The complex hosts a 5-star hotel, spa, cottages and reception rooms.
In February 2014, the lodge and golf club was bought by American businessman Donald Trump for an estimated EUR15m. The Lodge at Doonbeg, which consists of 218 hotel suites, a spa and several restaurants will be managed by the Trump Hotel Collection.
The club applied for permits to construct a sea wall to protect the property, citing "global warming and its effects", although Trump himself denies the existence of global warming. The plan attracted strong opposition from environmentalists due to concerns that it would adversely affect the Special Area of Conservation status of the site, and was withdrawn in December 2016.
Trump resigned as director of the golf course in January 2017, following remarks that he "couldn't care less" about it, a day before his inauguration as US President. Trump pledged to resign all of his directorships in order to avoid any conflict of interest as US President.
