Review from Melanie L.
Miami, FL
The shops here have AMAZING customer service. Maybe because they provide everyone with one-on-one intimate experience at every boutique even all the way up to the department stores. They make shopping quick and efficient. They have all of the best brands for literally EVERYTHING and new ones popping up all the time! They also throw fabulous events from time to time and I have been to a few, they do not disappoint! Free champagne and h'orderves in combination with great people, can't go wrong with that!
My favorite stores at BH are:
* Agent Provocateur - High end but risque lingerie, Well worth every penny!
* Hermes - Never has anything in stock, really ever
* Saks/Neimans - Surprisingly both carry EXTREMELY different lines! You would think "oh I went to Saks, no need to see Neiman's", NO you need to go there as well. They both are like night and day department stores.
* Calypso - They have great Miami attire. They sell a lot of beachy clothes but have some great dresses, WHITE PANTS (bought two pair of pants and am constantly asked where I purchased them), and fur items for the winter as well (not sure who would need them in Miami). The staff is extremely friendly and they carry GREAT lines, top quality stuff and moderately priced ($160 for a great pair of pants that will last a lifetime, $340 for a nice "statement" dress). They do have sales and put amazing items out so try to figure out when they have sales if you think the price tag is too high because they give huge discounts.
* Intermix - My absolute favorite store in the world. I dream of just living in a place like this and being able to wake up in the morning and wear a different outfit from this store everyday. They have the trendiest clothes in every aspect (work, beach, going out attire). A one stop shop if you need anything that is unique and will make a statement.
* Diane Von Furstenberg
* Michael Kors - Always has GREAT dresses for a great price. Here they carry the Michael Kors line as well as the cheaper Michael by Michael Kors. This assures that one can always find a sexy dress but maybe not at the $1,500+ Michael Kors price tag (although they do have BEAUTIFUL dresses in the Michael Kors collection). They have similar dresses to their higher line for $150 in their lower end line but they still look amazing!
Carpaccio is obviously where everyone goes for lunch if you want a "see-and-be-seen" environment. This mall is where the elite hangout and mingle, and well SHOP. Definitely the 1%. Every time I visit this mall, I constantly see women in their 60's decked out in Hermes birkin bags, christian louboutins, and ridiculous diamonds from head to toe. Never have seen these people walking the streets of miami anywhere, JUST Bal Harbour shops. -
Review from Steven W.
Have you ever heard the phrase..."If you have to look at the price tag, you probably can't afford it"? Let's just say, I was flipping tags in every store.
This is probably the most expensive mall I've ever been to. It is beautiful, and the day we were there was breezy, so it was a pleasure to walk through.
Just keeping it real though...It was too high end for me. Not to say I couldn't appreciate it for what it is, but I need my shopping dialed down a notch or two.
Worth checking out if high end fashion is your thing. Even better if you have money to burn! -
Review from Marqus R.
I'm sure you've heard of that certain 1% that the Occupy Movement keeps mentioning? Well, if you have and have wondered where they hang out and where they do their shopping look no further than Bal Harbour Shops. It's a place, however, for those of us in the 99%, even if not shopping and even if there isn't anything needed or can't otherwise afford to buy, that is a totally splendid, beautiful mall unlike any other and definitely worth a peek.
Unlike other malls, this is one in which you are going to have to pay to park, the parking attendants are dressed as Bahamian Guards, polite, well mannered and almost tour guide knowledge about the stores that make up the mall.
It's a unique area not only to stroll, but to people watch. Here are a few events that happened, that I saw or eves dropped upon that one generally wouldn't see or wouldn't take place elsewhere.
1. My friend spotted a lovely shirt in with some other shirts all marked as being "On Sale." So, he decided to buy it, took it to the check out register only to be told that the shirt was $600, which had been marked down from its regular price of $900. Since he had misread the zeros thinking that it was $60 marked down from $90 he got a red blush on his face, quietly returning it hopes that no one would take note of his financial embarrassment.
2. A elderly geezer with a trophy wife or girl friend purchasing a set of "His & Her" matching wrist watches and having no problem with and not even attempting to negotiate the $48,000 price tag.
3. A champagne sipping more than middle aged cougar handing a twenty something year old a credit card or whatever, telling him to go buy her something beautiful and to pick himself up something while he was at it, then pick up the car and meet her a the valet area in two hours.
Since there aren't any malls known to me to be comparable to Bal Harbour Shops and since it is so unique, five stars.
ADDENDUM: OK, since several fellow Yelpites have asked what I was doing there, fact is I went there in hopes of being scooped up by a generous cougar. However, that having failed, I plan to return in drag, disguised as a Miami trophy girl. Shhhhh! Don't tell. -

It's Bal Harbour, what more do you need to say? Nice shops and restaurants. If you want good service, dress the part.

Review from Rich G.
West Palm Beach, FL
This place was great.....in 1990.
Some of the great stores like LOUIS VUITTON, CARTIER, AND DIOR are gone. Replaced by tons of overpriced watch stores. Most of the entire front parking lot is taken by the valets on the weekends and they tell you all their $10 spots are gone and they only have $25 V.I.P. spots left.
Forget this place - Aventura Mall has the same stuff, free parking and air conditioning. -
Review from Juan S.
Miami, FL
Yes, its all about luxury shopping, but a more interesting note is that its one of most nicely landscaped places in all of Miami. Koi ponds, lush palms, boganvillia, waterfalls are the regular here in this outdoor paradise.
Cons: The mall is a little cramped, I hear they're expanding though. Also, entry from the back isn't pleasant. You're greeted by lots of service corridors and trucks....not at all welcoming. Some of their high-end stores are leaving and going to the Design District too.
Pros: Again, the landscaping is amazing. Some nice places to eat too...I'd recommend Books and Books on the second floor, although its not a full-service restaurant, but more of a coffeeshop. Santa Fe is meh and Carpaccio's prices are nearly double what their sister restaruants charge at Aventura Mall and Merrick Park. Makato is pretty good so I've heard.
Again, if I'm in the area, I'd stop in again, Nice place! -
Review from Michael S.
Fort Lauderdale, FL
I would probably appreciate this mall a lot more if I could afford to shop here (cue the frustrated face). It is a very nice shopping area featuring lots of fancy named stores. It is a pain in the butt to find parking here and the worst thing is you have to pay 5$ to park! Even if you get the ticket validated you still pay! I guess if you can afford to shop here, you can afford to park here. Besides this, the mall is nicely decorated and has some yummy looking restaurants strung about

I wish I could love this place. If I was a millionaire I would.
High class stores, beautiful decor. Alas. I am not rich enough. -
Review from Kaitlyn D.
Miami, FL
Ultra high end stores like Gucci, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Prada, D&G and many more. A couple restaurants. Beautiful mall, most beautiful mall in Miami. Great for rich snobs to flash their luxury items and sporty cars. Snooty sales people who walk like they have a stick up their ass. I need to empathize the money here because no one will give you the time of day unless you have thousands of dollars to blow. Not a good place for us poor middle class people, we must go back to Aventura.
Even though the people here are crappy, I still think this is a great mall, and when I do buy a designer item I will always prefer to go here rather than another place. Whether you are buying or just window shopping this would be consider a Miami must see just because of all the stores and how fancy it is. So five stars to you Bal Harbour! -
Review from Jeremy K.
San Martin, CA
Talk about ur beverly hills of Miami!!! There are individual stores here for Gucci, Tiffanys, Prada, Tori Burch, Balenciaga, D&G, Panerai watches, Jimmy Choos, etc....freakin crazy uber expensive and beautiful products to go with it!! Make sure you got ur bag of dough or black CC with ya!!!

Okay, this is one of those places I come when ever I need a boost in the spirit department..... I just feel so happy when ever I stroll down these stores..and look at the peaceful ponds full of enormous Koi.... absolutely beautiful...You find everything your little heart desires...ALL THE BARE NECESSITIES ..from food, drinks, shoes, purses, clothes.. you name it they got it... I love this mall.

Review from Andrew C.
While this is probably the most beautiful mall in the country, and it's definitely a place where the richest of the rich come out to play (and stock their closets), it's got a pretty funny feeling to it in at least this aspect:
There's more haggard old ladies walking around here in way too skimpy, skin tight, $$$$ designer clothing to not want to shield your eyes every few paces.
Other than that, I'd say this is probably the largest concentration of ultra high end shopping I've ever seen outside of Rodeo Drive in LA. If you're looking for stores where a last name either appears in, or is the title of the store, this is where you want to go. Prada, Gucci, D&G, Brioni, Louis Vutton... the list goes on and on and on ranging from the mainstream to the obscure. To give you some bearings here, the lowest end clothing store in the entire mall is Ralph Lauren and even the food options are spiked with actual restaurants, not your average mall food court eateries.
This is the first mall in the country that ever charged for parking, and that charge will be $4 an hour if you don't validate by buying something. Also, yeah, know how most malls have a Hyundai Sonata or Kia Rio in the middle of the mall? This one has a Maserati, Ferrarri, some Audi I've never seen and a Lambo. Each have a sign next to them with an exclusive number "for valued customers of Bal Harbor Shops" to call to get the ownership or leasing process started.
High end is an understatement. This is one of the most incredible and untouchable malls in all of America. I guarantee it. Walking around here, even for the people watching is a trip.Listed in: Florida, I'm in Miami, trick.

Review from Michelle H.
Portland, OR
I have always wondered where you could go to see all of the major designers, and see the things that don't make it to the runway (and I'm probably the only one who tends to think that stuff is garbage).
Well, here it is.
After passing every high-end car and massive house while heading north through South Beach, you end up at this beautiful mall. I have never seen a mall blend into its surroundings quite like this. It's as if the surrounding neighborhoods were built to suit these shops.
The one thing I expected was a lot of pretentious, higher-than-thou, snobbery, but that just wasn't the case. When I took my salary, in Roxy flip flops and Gap shorts no less, into places like Oscar de la Renta, Vera, and Dior, I wasn't snubbed in the slightest! Every single store we stepped into offered awesome service. Some served champagne (thanks Prada!), others offered us details on fabrics (thanks Brioni!), and others traded stories about Portland where we're from. We weren't followed around like we were going to steal things, either. Yes, there are security guards, but they don't treat you like a white-trash heathen.
It's a great place to window shop and fall in love. Should I need to incorporate more designer pieces into my wardrobe, I'd head here in an instant.Listed in: Livin' that Miami Life

Review from Rachel S.
A beautiful mall, with very helpful staff. The shops are high end and are very well designed. 1 star off for charging for parking! Even if you validate, you still have to pay (with a discount)

Review from Jason V.
You can't argue with the collection of stores at the Bal Harbour Shops--Zegna, Prada, Dolce & Gabanna, Hermes, etc. And the individual stores themselves--at least the ones I browsed through--appeared to be well-stocked with a wide variety of their respective wares. I also liked the fact that the space seemed relatively protected from the elements but without giving up the open-air quality of the mall. Still, the Bal Harbour Shops, as a structure, seemed a little lacking in creativity or sizzle: Take out some of the flora and the glamorous tenants, and this would be pretty close to any old average mall that nobody would give a second thought about. My five-star standard is the Crystals shopping mall at CityCenter, Las Vegas--admittedly a high bar and a bit of an unfair comparison to a mall that originally opened forty years before--but I just do not see any aspect of the Bal Harbour Shops attempting to reach beyond the sum of its parts nor living up to the names of the stores found within. Finally, a more practical criticism: The quality of the mall's dining options appeared to be far below what one would expect at an ultra high-end shopping center.

Review from Frank P.
MA
This place is great! Great! Great!
Highest of high end... Graff, Harry Winston,and Cartier for jewels and every uber expensive fashion designer you can think of!!! Chanel, Dior, Dolce, Fendi, Gucci, Prada and Louis to name a few.
This outdoor/indoor mall is anchored by Saks and Neiman's. Sports a couple restaurants, a salon, and a few little cafes. The architecture is amazing, think modern spanish style courtyard with palm trees, fountains, a koi pond (they were huge) complete with turtles, and sculpture lined the center and all the stores faced in.
Fans lined the ceilings of both levels, which was a nice touch since it was ninety degrees. This place is just gorgeous!
Oh, the people shopping here were also amazing--mostly european. The women: well coiffed, dressed to the nines, and just smelled RICH! All the men looked well groomed and effortlessly put together. Great place to people watch if you have a couple hours to spare.
While Bal Harbor Shops can make the average middle class person feel, well, rather poor-you can still shop here if you hit it right. I walked away with a pair of flip flops from Prada. That was about all I could afford this time around! -
Review from Jordan S.
Satellite Beach, FL
Not only does the mall charge for parking, they were the first mall to EVER charge for parking. Fascinating history on their website. Built on a former Army housing area, this place has been around for 45 years, and is still owned by the same family that conceived its existence.
Essentially, this IS what comes to mind when I think of wealthy Miami cougars and celebrities strolling about with their most glamorous clothing. Looking down on everyone around them.
Stores include: Delintancore, Palva von Platz, Squitire, Almond, they're all here. (Yeah, I just made those up) The point is, this is not your typical mall, and most won't recognize the stores anyway. Dress the Eff up before heading here, or you will feel embarrassed and leave the premises immediately. Half of the patrons strolling about have their dogs with them. I'm debating over whether I'm truly jealous of the people that shop here or not.
Just like Aventura Mall, Bal Harbour is also featured in the video game Grand Theft Auto; Vice City, called "The Washington Mall."
You know that sweet Hyundia Sonata that sits in the middle of your local mall? Yeah, here it's a Ferrari. -
Review from Ane P.
This is a gorgeous mall. I would go as far as to say the most beautiful mall I've been to. There are large wooden shutters, with ceiling fans and beautiful greenery surrounding you. The areas to rest are plentiful, and the shops are fantastic. They are of the higher-end variety, but you also have some large department stores to choose from.
If you're looking to get away from some of the cheesy boutiques on South Beach, head in this direction. -
Review from Maria M.
Woodside, NY
Bal Harbour has to be the most beautiful mall I've ever seen. I even hesitate to call it a mall. It's an outdoor, um, gathering of shops, with lush greenery, flowers and ponds.
The stores here are the insanely expensive ones, like Gucci, Agent Provocateur, Chanel and Versace. Lower-budget stores like Ann Taylor and Gap are on the second floor. I stick mostly to Saks and Neiman's. The sales there are insane. Diane von Furstenburg for almost half-off! My auntie scored a Badgley Mischka gown for her daughter's graduation party for only $350!
After a tough day of shopping, settle down for a meal at Carpaccio, where you must have the tartufo for dessert, or La Goulue, where you can sample from the Salad Nicoise, the trout Almondine or have mussels with Belgian Fries (which they serve with ketchup, mustard AND mayo - as it should be). -
Review from Chris M.
Miami, FL
Absolutely love this mall! Im a gucci shoe addict and deal with David Roman at the Gucci store. He is attentive and really wants you happy. I also like the Neimans and Saks Stores. If youre a man looking for fair prices, interesting jewelry I highly suggest JW Cooper on the second floor. They have really cool stuff and the prices are great. So many other places to talk about I highly suggest you go and see for yourself.

This is THE luxury mall in Miami.
Located on Miami Beach and actually across the street from the beach this destination shopping mecca is known for having a strong collection of designer stores. Name a high end designer and you'll find it at Bal Harbour. The with small waterfalls and koi ponds provide a relaxing location for a nice stroll. Although those waterfalls can be a little too loud.
Bal Harbour is also home to some of the friendliest mall security you ever saw. I almost felt they were the roving information booths.
Parking was $1/hr during my recent weekday visit.Listed in: Bal Harbour

Love this mall! Although a little depressing because it is chocked full of so many super high end stores it will make your head spin. The Saks is awesome there and there is plenty of nice restaurants as well. It is gorgeous to stroll around the perfectly manicured outdoor areas complete with koi ponds, water fountains, benches, and lush landscaping. DId I mention also good people watching? :)

Review from Raider J.
San Francisco, CA
This a great mall.......20 minutes North of Miami Beach.
This beautiful, high-end mall has all my (My babe and I) favorite stores:
Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Giorgio Armani, Zegna, Hugo Boss, Fendi, Prada, Versace, Dolce and Gabbana, Mark Jacobs, etc.
This place reminds me of home in SF, Beverly Hills, NY or Vegas...... -
Review from Jordan N.
Bal Harbour is a very nice two-story upscale chi-chi mall with lovely landscaping and with highly regarded stores and nice-looking restaurants/cafes.
Just coming and walking through will be enough for you to just think "Bal Harbour" repeatedly in an entranced tone. ;-)
And yes, do take advantage of buying something here in order to get validation for parking ($4 becomes $1, which is a steal).Listed in: MIA: Shopping Centers

Review from Larry G.
Ok, you literally have to be born into money in order to shop here. Louis Vuitton. Bvlgari. Gucci. Chanel. And other names that I've forgotten or never heard of before. The "cheapest" place to shop there is The Gap. And if you have a little money to spend, then maybe Saks Fifth Avenue.
While it was a beautiful yet simple outdoor mall, sadly, there were hardly any customers there. In fact, the salespeople looked bored and talked with others from the neighboring stores.
Again, this outdoor mall is beautiful yet simple. There are little ponds with koi fish. Perhaps, if they added well-known stores like Macy's and others, this mall might have a few more people shopping there.Listed in: Miami

Review from Kuv S.
New York, NY
I walk into Saks, Bal Harbor, and this short, wide eyed, kind faced, older women rushes towards me making wild circular motions, misting the air with a bottle I immediately recognize as Tom Ford''s Black Orchid. Before I can respond to this spectacle, she's holding the inside of my palm, spraying me, and then fawning over the fragrance. Like some sort of axe body spray commercial gone horribly wrong I thank her, and say yes, I am familiar with it, but am not interested. Doesn't register. I'm inundated with fragrance after fragrance by this woman, she would run to-and-fro from the fragrance counter to the mens collection, and I'm convinced she would have followed me into the fittings room if Saks Miami had anything worth considering. Which they didn't...
So to sum up, Saks Bal Harbor, unlike it's New York Flagship, is a must-hit-my-quota-twilight zone with a large collection of nothing to wear. -
Review from Rob C.
The US mall with the highest concentration of high-end fashion (this place means business--Neiman Marcus, Hermes, Giorgio Armani, Versace, Gucci, Chanel, Dior, Chopard, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Bottega Veneta, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Escada, Vera, Valentino, Marc Jacobs, Roberto Cavalli, Salvatore Ferragamo, Oscar de la Renta, Ralph Lauren, Yves Saint Laurent, Sergio Rossi, Chloe, Jimmy Choo, Tory Burch, Bvlgari, Piaget, Cartier, Harry Winston, David Yurman, Van Cleef & Arpels).
however if you're closer to palm beach, you should check out Worth Ave.
You know this place means business when parking is $4/hr (unvalidated). Perfect for out-of-towners to visit and ooh and ahh. Noticed that most of the stores didn't have many customers in them. More people milling around outside the really nice koi ponds and waterfalls (cozy two levels). best restaurant is probably la goulue -
Review from itl c.
San Luis Obispo, CA
Well, it is good at what it is! Bal Harbor is a very ritzy mall to shop. This is THE place to shop if you have money. Almost EVERY major designer has a shop here. It is a outdoor mall with little koi ponds in the middle.
Another couple of tips? You have to pay to park in the mall lot (it's only a couple of bucks but still). However, there is some parking across the street if you look. Also, believe it or not, the food is also excellent here.
They do have sales, especially when it's not in season. You can find good stuff for 50% off. However, we're talking a $600 pair of shoes marked down to $300.
If you want to spend about $100 - fuggetaboutit.... -
Review from Charlie U.
Miami Beach, FL
The Taj Mahal of shopping malls.
So beautiful you want to live there - except you'd go broke since you couldn't stop spending at all the wonderful stores.
In addition to the best names in retailing, the Bal Harbour Shops has recruited some pretty good restaurants as tenants too. More reason to make the trek from whereever you are to see this monument to fashion. -
Review from Emma J.
I went here last February to get a Valentines day gift. I first went to Bloomingdales to the David Yurman section, but couldn't find anything in particular that stood out, so I landed at Bal Harbour in the David Yurman store. God their jewelry is amazing!
It is a small store, very organized. The staff their are very polite and helpful. He showed me a few jewelry pieces, and when I purchased my gift he threw in a free jewelry cleaner. Which was awesome, because who doesn't need that!? So whenever I can not find David Yurman in either Saks or Bloomies I head over to Bal Harbour. Plus the mall is unbelievably amazingly gorgeous to walk around and have a pleasant lunch. -
Review from RD S.
Mount Olive, NC
Bal Harbour Shops--the basics: it's a outdoor mall, two stories (three in Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus). Bathrooms are on the second level. Eateries are on the first and second levels.
You know this place is high-end when Saks Fifth Avenue sends models to walk around the mall in designer gowns and there are cars (Porches, Aston-Martins, etc) in the mall's courtyard.
Most of the stores here will cost you a paycheck (or two or three) to buy anything here, even if it's 60% off. The most affordable stores, in addition to the Gap, include, in my opinion, the restaurants, Banana Republic and Books & Books, a Miami-based book chain. Even if you don't buy the latest dress from (insert designer here), you can still buy a cheap book from Books & Books and a $8 (if $8 is cheap for you) at an eatery upstairs and people-watch.
And, um, yeah, salespeople are snooty here. Not in all stores (I met a friendly salesclerk in Dolce & Gabbana), but in some stores. Be careful. -

New York, NY
Bal Harbour is the toniest shopping area in South Florida. It's filled with all the big fashion logos any girl or guy desires. If you're in Miami and want to relive that "Julia Roberts on Rodeo" Drive experience...come to Bal Harbour and be prepared to burn some cash fast.
It's an outdoor mall that's right across from the beach, even the parking here is expensive.
Names here include: Chanel, Louis Vuiton, Burberry, Versace, Saks, Neiman Marcus, Bulgari, Chloe, Marc Jacobs, Dior, D&G, Fendi, Gucci, Hermes, Roberto Cavalli, Valentino, TIffany's, Yves Saint Laurent...
it goes on and on and on....this shopping place has been featured a few times on MTV's "Super Sweet 16" -

Review from Alex S.
Miami, FL
Great open-air shopping center to walk, and look around. Very calm, clean and really beautifully. Now, here are only the hi-end shops, so, if you are into a budget, forget about it. But as an experience, it's really nice, and it is a must to visit if you are in the area.
Also, the restaurants are great, pleasant, and surprisingly NOT expensive as you might expect from a mall like this. -
Review from Kelly T.
Miami Beach, FL
I love this mall, all high end stores yet not intimidating. Saks and Neiman sales are extremely helpful, even one Saks employee went out of her way to call the Boca store to get the specific item I was looking for and promised to mail it to me, two days later UPS man showed up with my favorite pair. Always a wonderful experience!

Review from JENN W.
Mount Laurel, NJ
Love, Love this place-its in a gorgeous area, near the water, its indoor-outdoor, the downstairs had some bistros-restaurants, sat under open sky , with waiters outside, as the sun beamed down. The security & police are in shorts, just fabulous!! Yes, this is prestine-not run of the mill, all High end designers, like Ferragamo,Cartier(* where the people with white gloves open the doors for you) to Saks Fifth .It is definitely upscale-with lush greeneries,guess why police in all corners-high end-YEah!! The parking, all I saw was European cars, German-, no hoopty's, valet-for most of it, small area-you can park yourself..Not far from South Beach-Miss it so, but wouldn't be able to go all the time..high end-high $$, doesnt stop me from going -love this place!!
