Donald J. Trump, Chairman and President of The Trump Organization, along with Ivanka Trump, Executive Vice President of Development & Acquisitions, unveiled today the Jack Nicklaus Villa at Trump National Doral Miami®. Golf icon Jack Nicklaus joined Mr. Trump during the ribbon-cutting ceremony of his namesake villa, which is one of eight brand new deluxe guestroom villas, part of a $250 million renovation to create the finest and most luxurious golf resort in the world. Nicklaus was a longtime competitor at Trump National Doral’s world-renowned Blue Monster, the iconic 18-hole course that is regarded as one of the best in the world.
“It is a great honor to celebrate with the incredible Jack Nicklaus here today,” said Donald J. Trump. Jack has been a great friend and now partner, but most importantly, he is a champion and we are proud to recognize his great accomplishments, both here at Doral and throughout his storied career with the dedication of this magnificent villa.”
The ultra-luxurious Jack Nicklaus Villa—the largest on the property—comprises 172 brand-new guest rooms and suites, all surrounding a spectacular, U-shaped central courtyard that embodies the Mediterranean-style glamour of South Florida. Lush landscaping and verdant gardens add to the residential allure, creating an oasis in the midst of the Miami metropolis. The new deluxe guest rooms are adorned in a chic palette of elegant neutrals—including ivory, champagne and caramel—accentuated with mahogany wood and gold leaf Spanish revival details. Classic furnishings paired with contemporary accents present the ultimate in luxury interiors. The Trump family’s renowned attention to detail is evident throughout the villa, with stunning interiors designed by Ivanka Trump and world-renowned architects WATG. The Jack Nicklaus Villa’s rooms and suites also boast sweeping views of the resort’s Championship courses and are conveniently located just steps from the state-of-the-art practice facility.
“Our vision for Trump Doral from the onset has been to create the world’s finest luxury golf resort in the heart of Miami,” said Ivanka Trump. “The elegant design, spacious rooms and suites and attention to every last detail are a few of the defining characteristics that make Trump National Doral an unparalleled experience for our guests.”
The opening of the Jack Nicklaus Villa is the latest in a series of eight all-new luxury villas, which pay tribute to the sport’s greatest legends, including Gary Player, Arnold Palmer and Tiger Woods. Each villa is filled with incredibly rare photos and mementos highlighting the glory moments of the champions’ careers. Nicklaus, globally recognized as “The Golden Bear,” was a two-time winner at Doral (1972 and ’75) and finished runner-up five times. He went on to win 120 professional tournaments worldwide, including a record 18 major championships, and was named Sports Illustrated’s “Individual Male Athlete of the 20th Century.” Nicklaus is also a renowned golf course designer, businessman, and, along with wife Barbara, a tireless philanthropist. Next month, Nicklaus will become just the seventh athlete to be awarded the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest honor the United States Congress can bestow on an individual. In 2005, Nicklaus received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest honor the Office of the President can bestow on a U.S. civilian.
