When you walk in there is a sign that says be courteous, be safe, stay 6 feet apart and wear a face covering. Well, as Capt Barbossa said, “it’s more like guidelines” adults and teens everywhere not wearing mask and in the play area with the kids. Basically a super spreader paradise. Asked a security guard to enforce the face covering, he said they were not. Grabbed our child and hit the road. Nice place to eat and get some air, but not if that air is potentially loaded with covid 19 smack dab in the height of a pandemic. Won’t be back until the pandemic is over. Go to downtown Disney where they care about your health!

Sometimes I go for Bristol Farms because they have Cocomels. Sometimes I'm here for Habana (or Wahoo's). Most recently, we were there to shop at H&M. I have been to the Hello Kitty Cafe and the Barnes and Noble. I have been on the Ferris Wheel. Sometimes they have fun events. I think it is difficult to get in and out of here though and so generally try to avoid this shopping mall when possible or at the very least go during off-peak hours.

We stopped here kind of randomly on our last day in California. We had a wonderful afternoon shopping and eating. The stores were great (and there was a great variety). We enjoyed the food, and there is good coffee shops. There are also some nice fountains and seating areas. Great place to spend an afternoon!

In town for business and staying at nearby DoubleTree. Came here to eat dinner and get a few dress shirts. This is a giant outdoor entertainment complex with shops, restaurants and and movie theater. We have something like this in Florida where I’m from. Definitely worth stopping by to explore.

Tons of shops and restaurants. Also, there’s a Ferris wheel and other kids activities. Nordstrom is there too. Some of my favorite restaurants there are PF Changs, Yardhouse, Cheesecake Factory. Really fun place to hang out, but I don’t like the parking situation. Can be really hard finding a spot on the weekend.

Excellent place to shop, stroll and eat. Lots of places to eat… we went to the movies at this place and saw West Side Story. Wonderful Theater with great sound. Looks as if during the lock down of Covid they were able to remodel the lobby. Great idea- very sleek and minimalistic. Perfect Addition!!!

An adventure of walking outside to over 130 stores. Several locations to eat for all ages and price ranges. Kids can enjoy a huge ferris wheel and merry-go round. A great place to take a date for dinner and a movie. Ample parking surrounds the entire spectrum. Easy access from all directions.

This a very nice upscale mall. It is right off 405. It is a huge open air mall with all kinds of restaurants and shops. Parking was adequate. We also saw Star Wars in the 4D movie theater. Great place to spend half a day.

I love out door malls; great variety! They should put in some more children's shops, like Gymboree. My daughter loves playing in the fountain infront of Target! Too many smokers walking around; ick!

Are you talking about the Marriott across the street? if not then you will need to clarify where you are asking about staying.
