This mall is quite big and has several floors. Inside, there are a lot of international brand stores and an big electronics store, which are more expensive than in our home country (Europe). There is also a Food Court. Shops for tourists are less. Only one little souvenir shop with a limited choice. And the supermarket in the basement for buying local alcohol, cocoa or coffee. It was very difficult to change money inside (Euro to local currency). But it is more a place for local people than for tourists. I think a tourist you can skip.

We stayed near the airport for a day during our Costa Rica holiday and was looking for some place to go to spend some time. I saw this was not too far from our hotel so decided to take a trip here... it was just like any other shopping center and we just needed somewhere to hide against the heat.
Still, plenty of shops to browse in for a few hours.. we travelled with small kids so they enjoyed looking at the various souvenir shops, toys shops and getting some ice cream.

I needed to replace my so called waterproof binoculars after they malfunctioned during our river rafting trip. I was overjoyed when our river guide suggested the Columbia sotre in the City Mall. The mall in general had a nice parking garage, the stores were light and bright, appeared to be well stocked. The Columbia store was well stocked and had several pairs of binoculars from which to choose. My friend was able to find just the right cell phone/tablet charge for use during our trip. There appears to many food choices in the mall. A vibrant mall not far from the airport.

I'm at Rosti Pollos at the time of writing this review. After having waited for the table they tell me that there are no sodas or ice and that they don't feel like selling me bottled ones. Why not let people know before you get in line? Why not close? If they do not maintain the soda machine, they must assume the costs of selling bottled

We came to the mall to find a nail salon and massage. There were many places you can do nails but only one place for massage (BNH Beauty Hair). We did gel pedicure and manicure and 1 hour massage each. They have only one bed so we had to take a turn, which was fine. For two it came out to be 99k colones. Cant complain. At the hotel an hour massage was going for $140.

Once you have found that parking garage and gotten into the mall it is a real treat. If is amazingly beautiful inside. The lower two floors are half parking and half small stores. The top three floors have all of the upscaled shops and stores you would expect in a large US mall. but the mall interior is almost unbelievable. The food court is also a great place to get almost any kind of fast food you would like.

If you want to go shopping near the airport this mall is exactly what you need to visit.
There is a great variety of shops and nearly all well known labels are available
There is a very big parking area and a food section if you are hungry

We did get to go to the City Mall, according to a later informant, the largest in central America. The mall was beautiful, large, clean, and friendly. From an American perspective, the mall was unique in that there were no department stores, just dozens of smaller stores. Also, interesting were the relatively large numbers of toy and children’s stores.

We are coming from Manuel Antonio and cant check in for our flight before 3am the morning after. We are thinking of spending the day at the mall but we have our luggage. Is there somewhere at the mall where we can leave our luggage? Like lockers our something similar? We have big backpacks.

Not that I can recall but then again, I didn’t look for any lockers. I wish I could give you a better answer. Good luck.
