Trump Ocean Resort Baja Mexico was a failed luxury condominium-hotel resort to be located at Punta Bandera in the Playas de Tijuana borough of Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, approximately 16 km from the San Ysidro border crossing.[1]
It was initially announced in 2006 as a joint venture between the Trump Organization and Los Angeles–based real estate development company Irongate. Investors were led to believe that Trump CEO Donald Trump was supervising the project, however he was just licensing his name for the development, and so the investors sued the company.[2][3]
This was the second Trump-Irongate joint venture, and followed the more successful Trump International Hotel and Tower (Honolulu) venture.
The project was to be a 3-tower, 25-story, 526-unit condo-hotel.[1]
In late 2008, with the project experiencing delays and cost overruns, Trump removed his name from the development.
