Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We were directed to the new parking structure level P5. We parked our car and walked to the elevator. We took the elevator to the shops on the second floor. Unfortunately, when we returned to the elevator both were out of service. We repeatedly tried to find someone to direct us. We saw a door that said stairs but it was locked. We walked in circles without a person in sight to help.

This is all with an injured knee. We finally found a staircase we could access and walked up the 3 flights of stairs to our car.

The lack of elevators and lack of direction was outrageous!!!

I did call the main number for the mall once I reached the car. The young lady that finally answered the phone couldn’t have cared less.

I rarely write reviews but this visit had a parking attendant that I've never seen, she was amazing helping us and diffusing a situation with a guy who was racing through the garage, incredibly reckless driving. She stopped him and took us to a parking space quickly. We all appreciated her going above and beyond to make sure we felt good and safe. I believe her name is Jaime lee. You're lucky to have such helpful workers. My husband wanted to offer her a job, she was so good with her customer service. Definitely promotion worthy! The shops are always nice to go to.

the mall is a dump
grossly overpriced for nothing
building is worn down clearly know ones put any money back into the place in decades
the wannabes like to walk around and pretend it's a place to show off to other wannabes.
will never go back better malls with the same stores just miles away

Like Manhattan's Mad. Avenue, very few of these stores actually have customers buying stuff. It's mostly window shoppers , coke dealers, shady latin americans, and (UGH!) Kardashians.
Like Madison, most of the stores are planted there just for status.
Still, it's a lovely place.
Unlike its neighbor to the north, the Aventura Mall, you can actually hear yourself speak. Aventura is headache-inducing, and it's way too big.
Bal Harbour Shops is properly sized.
I don't mind the parking charges; it helps keep out the riff raff who would do better in the Aventura Mall.
Other than the diminished Saks, I'd rarely buy anything here.
Still it's nice to look.
I hear Neiman Marcus will be going bankrupt and out of business--like the late, lamented, Lord and Taylor.
It'll be interesting to see what replaces it if it does happen.
Le Printemps from Paris would be good, I think. Or Harrods from London.
The Bal Harbour Shops is a relaxing place to window shop.
But, dears, WHO wears all that stuff they sell there??
Prostitutes and Kardashians.

We dined here at most restaurants but were not impressed. We window shopped but knew this was not our kind of place to buy.
Watching the luxury cars drive up to the valet we are of the opinion that "everyone" in Miami has benefited from American capitalism. Or so we hope. In middle America there are few Rolls and Bentleys.
Happy to see the BH police presence too.

The prices in this shops are super high. As an example: $600 for swim trunks. The Mall is beautiful with restaurants and cafes.
