The Doral Golf Resort & Spa (Miami)

The Doral is one of the finest golf & spa resorts in the world. With 90 holes of championship golf, you'll be in Golfers' Heaven! Having undergone a massive renovation a few years ago, The Doral is once again one of the premier resorts in the world! The Doral is perfect for the golfer with a non-golfing travel companion! While the golfer is navigating Doral's 5 championship courses, its 15 court Arthur Ashe Tennis Center, the new Spa at Doral, the Blue Lagoon Water Park and Camp Doral offer plenty for the non-golfing travel companion and families with children. At the end of the day you'll be reunited at dinner in one of the resort's six outstanding restaurants.

Deciding which course to play is half the challenge! Of course the famed Blue Monster, home to the PGA Doral Open, offers a beautiful backdrop for the monstous water holes and deceptively deep rough. Images of epoch scenes from PGA matches of the past dance through your head as you navigate this challenging track. The Great White, a Greg Norman signature course has ushered in a new era of golf in Florida bringing in a desert-scape feature to Doral. The Gold Course and the Silver Course have both been redesigned and renovated recently by Jerry Pate and Raymond Floyd. With small, deep bunkers and water everywhere, the Red Course is a treat for those enjoying a short game challenge. This is a "thinking man's course" where placement is much more vital than driving for show.

The Blue Course Raymond Floyd/Doug Wilson par 72 / 7,125 yds 130 / 74.5
The White Course Greg Norman/R.V. Hagge par 72 / 7,125 yds 130 / 74.5
The Silver Course Jerry Pate par 71 / 6,567 yds 131 / 72.5
The Gold Course Raymond Floyd/R.V. Hagge par 70 / 6,602 yds 129 / 73.3
The Red Course R.V. Hagge par 70 / 6,208 yds 121 / 70.2
