The Trump Ocean Club International Hotel & Tower will feature a 65-story condominium tower with 500 condominium units and 312 hotel condominium units. There will also be a casino, private beach club, 24-hour marina, among other amenities. The project will be built on an artificial peninsula on the Panama Bay, with total land area of 140,000 sf. Plans also call for more than 1,500 parking spaces.

The development coincides with Panama's plans for an approximately $5.5-billion improvement of the Panama Canal, K Group president Roger Khafif pointed out during a press conference announcing the project. The just-announced Canal plan still must meet voter approval. Khafif said as many as 30,000 US citizens currently call Panama home and there are more than one million tourists each year.

Donald Trump said his interest in Panama was sparked three years ago when his "Miss Universe" pageant was held in the country. This effort—the organization's second largest right now—was recently increased by 600,000 sf. "The right opportunity presented itself."
