Eric Trump on Trump Hollywood:
“One of Trump Hollywood’s greatest elements is its location, and location is absolutely everything…”

Eric Trump, son of Donald and Ivana Trump, and Executive Vice President of Development and Acquisitions at The Trump Organization, recently sat down to discuss why Trump Hollywood is such an exceptional project.

When it comes to Trump Hollywood’s location, Eric Trump believes Trump Hollywood couldn’t ask for better.

“One of Trump Hollywood’s greatest elements is its location, and location is absolutely everything in real estate. It’s located right between Ft. Lauderdale and Miami, right next to Bal Harbour,” said Trump. “It’s just an incredible location right on the ocean.”

Trump also highlighted some of Trump Hollywood’s amenities, and how they embrace what it means to live in a Trump building.

“It’s got incredible amenities- whether it be wine cellars or cigar rooms, or 4000 sq-ft of spa and fitness facilities,” Trump said. “You look at that in a residential building, including a 24-hour concierge that really caters to your every need, and it really fits the Trump lifestyle. It’s what we are and it represents our company- it’s just an incredible building,” he added.

“It’s an exciting project and it’s an absolutely beautiful building,” Trump said. “I don’t think anything really compares to it in South Florida. It is really in a class of its own,” he added.

After a five-month remodeling closure, the well-known Rusty Pelican reopened for business in mid-December. After hearing all of the hype, I decided it was time for me to return to the famous Key Biscayne restaurant.

The restaurant’s wow-factor is the truly breathtaking view. The panoramic view of Miami’s glistening skyline is the perfect backdrop to your meal. The remodeled venue now has a contemporary feel, but comfort can still be found in the coziness of the cherry wood features.

On the Menu

I was pleased to see that along with the décor, the menu was also completely revamped. New executive chef, Michael Gilligan (straight from the W Hotel in South Beach), brings many different choices to the already stellar menu.

I started off with the Baked Crab Cake as an appetizer and upon the first bite, I was wishing that I ordered 100 of them as my entire meal. The grilled corn, chives, and peppers gave the perfect “oomph” that every good crab cake needs. Perhaps my favorite feature was the accompanying chipotle aioli sauce. Who doesn’t love a good sauce?

My entrée was the crispy fried whole local red snapper. The fish was crispy on the outside, perfectly moist on the inside and maintained the perfect balance between flavor and lightness. The snapper was paired with udon noodles and a soy-honey sauce- nothing short of amazing. The soy-honey sauce was sweet, but not overpowering, and complimented both the snapper and the noodles as if they were made for each other.

Dessert included – what else – a gracious slice of key lime pie. Fitting, don’t you think?

Bottom line: If you’re heading to Key Biscayne and looking to appreciate the beautiful skyline while enjoying delicious cuisine, the remodeled Rusty Pelican is the perfect destination.

Using a Variety of Lighting to Create Ambiance
Esteemed interior designer Steven G. Shares How

Last week, we shared with you tips for designing your luxury home to be more guest-friendly. Now, we want to divulge one more suggestion for making your residence an absolute showstopper!

One of the most overlooked design elements is lighting. It’s easy to focus on the fun design aspects such as textiles, paint techniques, and accessorizing. However, none of that will be properly displayed without the right lighting.

Distinguished interior designer Steven G. offers us this thought-provoking design advice about the importance of properly using architectural lighting in your residence. Consider these three fundamental aspects when coming up with a plan for your home:

• Aesthetic appeal: you should determine which of your lighting pieces will be used as a statement piece verses those which will have more of a background effect.
• Functionality: lighting design isn’t just about looks; it must also serve a purpose. It’s important to choose lighting that is appropriate for both day and nighttime needs.
• Energy Efficient: it is important to use the right balance of lighting to ensure your home is well lit without wasting extra energy with over-illumination. Choosing the right source and right bulb to use in that source could save a lot of energy throughout the year.

As seen in the picture above, the thoughtful combination of three different lighting types (fireplace, recessed lighting and the chandelier) creates a dimension in your design which can evoke a variety of moods.

Have more questions or need help with your lighting needs? Stop by our Design Center! You can also discuss all of your questions on a tour with one of our sales agents. Either way, we’d love to hear from you. Contact us at (866) 382-2495 or come find us on Facebook and Twitter today.

The Extravagant Value of Trump Hollywood
Other South Florida Properties Can’t Compare.

Trump Hollywood was designed and built for those who wanted the best at any price. Today, even the most affluent buyers are looking, first and foremost, for value. Just two miles north of Sunny Isles Beach and five miles north of Bal Harbour, Trump Hollywood offers the most luxurious oceanfront living in South Florida, with generously-sized residences, opulent finishes and spectacular amenities, all at a price 35 to 50% less per square foot than at other, comparable luxury oceanfront condominiums.

At Trump Hollywood, oceanfront living costs just $505 per square foot on average. Compare this to the average price per square foot for luxury oceanfront condominiums in these neighboring areas:

The incomparable mix of luxury and value in an ideal location that is central to Miami and Fort Lauderdale while being situated in a private enclave, has resonated with buyers around the globe, resulting in a remarkable 120 sales in 2011, totaling $176 million, to buyers from 18 different countries.

We are pleased to announce that Trump Hollywood has just received Fannie Mae approval, making it even easier to acquire a residence. This, in addition to a homeowners’ association with reserves at nearly $2 million (making it the most financially stable condominium in South Florida), helps account for the building’s spectacular success.

Trump Hollywood’s remaining residences are priced from $1.5 million to $2 million and range in size from 3,100 to 3,400 square feet.

The latest addition to Downtown Miami, The Lucky Clover Irish Pub, diverges from the typical lounge-scene of Miami with its distinctive concept and design. Sprawling across 10,000 square feet throughout two levels of the Axis in Brickell, this Dublin-esque pub leaves nothing to be desired when it comes to the exceptional décor and delectable eats.

As I took my seat in one of the welcoming leather booths I couldn’t help being entranced by an eclectic assortment of things to look at. The collection of sights ranging from paintings of the Irish countryside engulfed in ornate gold frames, antique mirrors, vintage advertisements, and hundreds of old period photos creates a vibe that is both elegant and comfortable. The Spanish-based design firm, Retromania, certainly left no detail unnoticed while designing this trendy new pub.

Whether you are coming here for the pub-grub, the weekly happy hour, or the live entertainment, the wonderful atmosphere of this new eatery is undeniable.

On the Menu

With a menu this mouth-watering, it was hard for me to choose from all of the tasty eats. After gazing over the selections, I just couldn’t decide between two of the appetizers- so I didn’t! The “Lucky Sliders” definitely stayed true to their name; they were a perfectly fortunate combination of caramelized onions, brie cheese, and chipotle mayo piled on top of an Angus beef patty. I also couldn’t resist the “Steak Tid Bits” served with Guinness BBQ sauce for dipping and garlic cheesy bread. There was more than enough for my entire table to share!

For my meal, I chose to go with some of the more conventional Irish fair and opted for the corned beef sandwich. Lucky Clover’s standard combination of spicy mustard, sauerkraut, and provolone cheese on rye bread proves that you don’t have to mess with tradition.

Bottom line: If you’re looking for a traditional Irish experience, the Lucky Clover provides a unique and unforgettable time… without the cost of the plane ticket!

Design Your Luxury Residence To Be Guest-Friendly
Award-winning interior designer Steven G. shares how

Owning a residence inside Trump Hollywood means you have a perfect space to host guests. With plenty of room, including a large terrace and beautiful views, who wouldn’t want to have company over for a nice evening of wining and dining?

Continuing our series of interior design tips, we’d like to remind you that as you design your home, keep in mind that the living area will probably occupy plenty of people besides yourself. Here are a few simple steps you can take to make sure your home is always ready to accommodate family and friends.

• Be proactive by ensuring that the flooring in your place can be easily cleaned and maintained. This makes cleaning up after parties much easier. Make sure the flooring you choose does not stain easily!




• Often times, the powder room in your home is not regarded as high on the priority list when it comes to decoration. However, remember that this is the bathroom that your guests will be using, so make sure you add some personal touches to jazz it up.




• When decorating your powder room, have some fun with it! You live in sunny Florida, so one idea may be to incorporate a fun bright color or pattern that goes along well with the tropical theme.




• Consider using various wall treatments like those shown in the photo above to add much more dimension to a small room.

Trump Hollywood Overlooks ‘Blue Wave Certified’ Beach

Trump Hollywood’s luxury residences are located on one of the nation’s cleanest and most celebrated beaches.

For the last decade, Hollywood Beach has been considered one of the cleanest beaches in South Florida, and rated as one of Florida’s six “Blue Wave Beaches” as certified by the Clean Beaches Council. Hollywood Beach is also one of the cleanest, safest and environmentally friendly beaches in the country, according to Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention & Visitors Bureau.

The Beach Life

Whether you’re feeling active or just looking to relax, Hollywood Beach is also home to the thriving Hollywood Broadwalk, the only boardwalk on Florida’s East Coast. The gorgeous expanse runs more than two miles up and down the Golden Coast.

Take a stroll, bike or jog down the boardwalk overlooking pristine waters. If you’re feeling tired from all the activity, grab a snack and relax at one of the Broadwalk’s many alfresco restaurants. Feel free to bring your four-legged friend along as well. It’s only appropriate, considering the Hollywood hit “Marley & Me” was filmed around the dog-friendly areas of the beach.

Just ask our residents. They can’t get enough of Trump Hollywood’s 240-foot stretch along the beach.
