At the coastal Lodge at Doonbeg in western County Clare, Ireland, guests can play a round on a Greg Norman-designed links course, enjoy Irish-inspired treatments at the White Horses Spa, and participate in tastings with a whiskey sommelier. Uniquely, they can also plumb their family’s lineage. Prior to arrival, a guest can submit an online form and the hotel’s resident genealogist will research the person’s family tree, finding any Irish roots. Depending on what Doonbeg digs up, once in Ireland, guests may plan an excursion to an ancestral village or even meet a long-lost relative.
