Trump International Golf Links & Hotel Doonbeg

Wild Atlantic Way clifftop links + Irish castle hospitality on Doughmore Bay

Doonbeg, County Clare, Ireland 55m from SNN (Shannon Airport) Opened 2002 by Greg Norman (2002) / Martin Hawtree (2014 re-routing)

Property Overview

Trump Doonbeg sits on 400 acres above the wild Doughmore Bay on Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way — a Greg Norman links course reshaped by Martin Hawtree that plays through 100-foot dunes and along a 1.5-mile crescent beach. Suites are spread across castle-style stone buildings; the atmosphere is more country-house-Ireland than modern-resort, and County Clare is 30 minutes from the Cliffs of Moher.

128-yard par 3 played from an elevated tee to a tiny green perched between dunes above Doughmore Bay — one of golf's most dramatic short holes.

Caddie & Pro Tip:

Play in July-August at 07:00 to catch the front 9 before the Atlantic wind builds. Local caddies know exactly which of the 6 possible tee positions is used that day — worth the €50 tip.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far is Trump Doonbeg from Shannon Airport?

55 minutes by car (75km). The resort offers meet-and-greet + private transfer (€185 one-way) or you can rent a car at Shannon — the drive along the Wild Atlantic Way is spectacular.

Is Doonbeg suitable for non-golfers?

Yes. The 1.5-mile beach, spa, cliff walks, horse riding, and 30-min drive to the Cliffs of Moher make it a great non-golf base. Family lodges are designed for kids.

What's the best month to play Doonbeg?

May-September for daylight (18-hour days in June) and drier weather. Late May + September are shoulder-season sweet spots — full course conditioning without July-August tour crowds.

Can I combine Doonbeg with the Ryder Cup 2027 at Adare Manor?

Yes — they're 90 minutes apart in County Limerick. Many international visitors are booking Doonbeg for pre/post-Ryder Cup week (September 2027).
