Q:
Are there any photo booths in the mall?
A:
I just googled your question. If Google is correct then yes there is. Also Selfie Wld has opened there offering selfies and 'instagram worthy photo ops' whatever that means.

Parking is crazy. However it is a mall. Lucky that they still have free parking.
You are in a very touristy area. It's nice to visit and decent stores but the spaces seemed to be occupied by similar companies and not as much variety as it used to have. They are constantly adding on and the change to food court was a nice change.
Dont expect to have a decent walking time or not too crowded if you go on any of the prime times or weekends.
Used to go more frequently but not so much. Starting to feel like the outlets and due to lots of tourists it's hard to find specific items. I have changed how I shop or visit the stores in other states to get sizing needed.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Apr 20, 2024
There were many stores to choose from like Zara, H&M, Victoria's Secret, and many more.
There were several eateries to choose from that offer outdoor patios as well as many food court offerings. I noticed a gelato place that looked really good ect. Parking was slightly challenging but it was about the same as any other mall at peak time.
It seemed to be a pretty decent mall if you're looking to shop, or spend a couple hours ect.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Dec 3, 2023
In general, malls aren't what they used to be - except for the Florida Mall. It has the typical anchor department stores, big brands, and also some smaller and more local spots to explore. Everything is bright and clean and each store has a definite theme and aesthetic they're going for.
In addition to all the big name brands, I like that is has more unique spots like Magic Pearls, PopCult, Sushi Yummy (revolving sushi), and Gacha - having both in one place makes for a fun shopping experience.
Like most malls, I wish the bathrooms and parking were a little nicer but overall the Florida Mall is my go-to when I'm feeling that mall nostalgiaHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - 6189118Mar 24, 2024
Pretty happy with my experience in the mall, lots of open businesses and it was easy to park on a weekend in the afternoon. I'm retracting a star because there were way too many booths in the middle of the walkways that were soliciting business. I don't like being chased down every 5 feet by different businesspeople. I don't make eye contact, but some of them are pretty aggressive and it's unappealing

The Mall of Florida was very lovely. We were not there very long.
But we did enjoy a few hours at Crayola ExperienceHelpful 5Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 0 - Apr 23, 2023
Brand New Florida Mall in the heart of Orlando!!!
This mall had so many stores, restaurants, and activities to do all around.
A lot of major stores luxury or discounted. Whatever your looking for they have it here.
Tons of parking all around and they do have 16 TESLA CHARGERS in the main entrance of the mall so that is a plus.
Highly recommend this hip and new mall to anyone.Helpful 6Thanks 0Love this 6Oh no 0 - Feb 9, 20241 check-in
I am happy to travel almost an hour to this mall every once in a while for lack of shopping in my home area. Besides the big anchors stores, they have many unique smaller shops which my teen enjoys shopping at. As well as, a huge Mac pop up in the middle of the mall, a Sephora and several kiosks along the way. What I find the most annoying is the constant attack as you are going from store to store from the kiosks staff. Even avoiding eye contact they are coming up to your personal space trying to sell you something even when you try to avoid them. They try to make eye contact with you when you are leaving a store. It's so annoying! I also found a lack of stock in most stores. Unless you are an XS, S it's hard to find what you like in your size. Even Sephora seemed to be out of stock on most of the make up stands on popular items.

This is a decent mall.
Good amount of stores for various budgets. This mail is good for families & teenagers because of its layout. No hassle to get food or shop around since only one level. Looks like this is where locals go to shop. If you fancy designer stores go to Millenia mall.
Some stores I liked here: Windsor, Pandora, forever 21 (mainly fast fashion & jewelry). There's also few boutique stores.
A lot of people that work in this mall can speak English & Spanish. This area has a strong Latin community & I found several Venezuelan/Peruvian/etc businesses outside the mall & also Asian. If you're a tourist visiting & speak diff language, you'll feel at ease if you do decide to visit this area & mall.
I didn't like how i couldn't feel the AC as much. I come to the mall to escape the heat lol would've been nicer if it was stronger but that day I visited was crowded.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Dec 12, 2022
The Florida Mall is a long established shopping plaza that has a great selection of stores and even boasts a hotel on the property.
The Florida Mall has a great selection of stores and the shopping is an overall positive experience.
The Florida Mall itself is a large mall and has a lot of parking. In addition to all of the stores, the Florida Mall also has plenty of restaurant options.
Overall, I will give the Florida Mall five stars for a great overall shopping experience.Helpful 11Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0 - 119183755Aug 24, 2022
This mall is HUGE! And best of all, it's an indoor mall! Thank the heavens bc that Florida heat was really starting to get to me. Nothing like being able to shop at leisure, discover new boutiques, support local business, and doing it all in the luxury of AC.
They have a Carlos's bakery store front there! That guy, Buddy, on food network that does the famcy cakes. Those cake though.. OMG.. I personally loved the strawberry shortcake.
Parking here, despite having such a large lot, is a nightmare if you want close to the main entrance parking. Just park further away and enter from the side. It'll be fine.
The layout of this mall is interesting. They have over 250 stores/restaurants. I borrowed a map from the website to show. Plenty of unique shops with your common clothing shops.
It was nice. I would go again the next time I'm in Florida. And allocate more time to be there. I barely completed half the mall before it was time to go.Helpful 2Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Dec 31, 2022
Before I begin this review let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal opinion and my personal opinion alone, so with that being said let's go!!..
I used to come to this mall when I lived in Altamonte Springs so this is not my first visit here but my daughter wanted to get some last minute Christmas gifts so we decided to come here. Everything went as expected as it would like any other mall shopping experience. The reason I left a star off is because the mall was so crowded we had to valet because we didn't want to continue to ride around the parking lot looking and hoping to find a spot!
I would return but not around the holidays again!
Thank you for taking time out to read my review.Helpful 45Thanks 0Love this 48Oh no 0
