Frommer's Review

Donald, Donald, Donald, what were you thinking when you opened this uninspiring 32-story, 390-room beach resort? Yes, the Trump International sits on a prime piece of beachfront property, but I've seen rooms in Holiday Inns that have more personality than these. Completely bland with no style whatsoever, the Trump International is a folly of massive proportions. With a cavernous, blasé lobby in which you can hear a pin drop, a restaurant that looks like a common room ripped out of an old Catskills resort (and not updated), and views of T-shirt shops and Denny's, this hotel is a travesty. That's really all I can say. And it's not made better with the tacky digital sign out front trying to entice people inside. Maybe, with an emphasis on the maybe, if there were a casino in here, it would justify a stay. Otherwise, it's just more vanity fare for the egomaniacal developer who seems to think that bigger is always better.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; 2 bars and lounges; outdoor pool; full service spa; watersports equipment/rentals; Just Us Kids program (ages 5-12); concierge; business center; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; air-conditioned cabanas on pool and beach
