Trump National Doral Miami - Blue Monster Course
About
Trump National Doral Miami offers five 18-hole courses, but the Blue Monster is the most well known. Originally designed by Dick Wilson, the golf course has been updated throughout the years by different architects to keep the challenges current. The course calls for strategy as well as distance. The fairways are infamously long and the greens are undulating. There are several water hazards that come into play as well as bunkers and deep rough. The Blue Monster's signature hole is the 18th with its trademark fountain; it was named by GOLF Magazine on of the top 100 holes in the world.

Good times on a major championship test
My third time was the charm.
I didn't have fun the first two times playing the Blue Monster (in 1999 and 2011) because I simply got my butt kicked. It's that hard. My ground game is no match for its never-ending onslaught of bunkers and water.
But this time I knew what to expect, where to bail out and how to manage my game. The one time I tried to be heroic, I paid for it with a lost ball off the 18th tee.
I'm totally impressed with how Gil Hanse re-energized an aging course. Making par where Rory McIlroy threw his iron into the lake on no. 8 and trying to drive the spectacular new 16th hole were memorable moments.
The resort has really improved thanks to the millions spent by Trump. Don't be surprised if we see the course on TV hosting another top tournament in the future. The legacy of the Blue Monster should live on.
Blue Monster
Love Trump National, have played all 4 courses on this property now! But very disappointed in value for what you get on the Blue Monster! I think the other courses at Trump National are a great value, but I probably not play this course again for the price, $800 before 2pm, and $500 after 2pm, course was nice but not worth the money, I only paid this price because I wanted to have played all 4. Golden Palm, Red Tiger, Silver Fox all worth the price, but unfortunately not for Blue Monster, you get just as good of an experience if you choose to play the one of the other courses
Wind tunnel golf
Very windy day on a great golf course. We played 36 that day. Guys we were with wanted to buy Blue Monster gear but they close the Blue Monster pro shop at 4????? Seems silly to have it separate from one of the best pro shops ever. Huge selection and square footage. Should have built the Blue Monster shop connecting to main pro shop. Course was great. We played in 4 hours. Perfect
Over Priced and Underperformed
You’re paying for the name. $700 total after fore caddie fees and the tip (which are mandatory at $30 even for underperformance as my very unenthusiastic, and lethargic fore caddie pointed out). It’s gorgeous but it’s not worth the price nor the prestige it thinks it deserves. Three other courses here are still over priced but in just as good, if not better, shape for half of what you pay (or more) for the Blue Fraudster. Disappointed to say the least.
We had a great fore caddie that really helped us navigate the course.
Very very good condition and cource
It was wonderful. time for beautiful and good course and conditions of fairway and green
Brilliance at its best
Top 10 I have courses I have played in condition and grandeur. If you go in the rough you have to hit a wedge out from wherever you are is the only drawback. Fairways were like carpet and the greens were like velvet but like ice to putt on.
Great Experience
The golf course, pro shops, restaurants, facilities and staff were all first class!
