Where to stay for the First Tee - Miami Doral Junior Classic
Hotels near Trump National Doral Miami, played each December. On-site resort rooms, nearby inns, extended-stay suites, and budget picks, with approximate drive times so you can weigh location against cost.
Host resort and packages
Trump National Doral Miami is the tournament venue itself and operates as a full resort with 643 guest rooms on the property, so staying on site is a direct resort booking rather than a separate tournament package. The resort publishes a general Championship Stay and Play golf package (accommodations plus daily breakfast and replay golf on the Red Tiger, Golden Palm, or Silver Fox courses), valid through the end of 2026 and subject to availability. This is not a tournament-specific rate. A published host-hotel or discounted-rate program specific to the tournament was not found on an official source; confirm current terms and any tournament-week availability directly with the resort or First Tee Miami.
Before you book
The tournament runs in the days just before Christmas, which overlaps with Miami's winter high season. Hotel rates and demand in the Doral area run higher in December than most of the year, so book as soon as your division and dates are confirmed rather than waiting.
With 50-plus college coaches attending and the 16-18 division as the marquee event, many families are here for recruiting exposure as much as the trophy. Build in extra time for the morning drive, since the Doral hotel corridor sits along the same Palmetto Expressway and Dolphin Expressway routes that also serve Miami International Airport.
If you want to stay on the tournament grounds, book directly with Trump National Doral and ask about the general golf package rather than assuming a tournament rate exists. Off-site, the hotels along NW 74th, 79th, and 87th Avenues are all a short drive from the club and tend to be less expensive during the holiday period.
