Our favourite mall in the world! It’s got all our favourite American shops and a variety of eateries. It’s huge! It took us a couple of days to find our way around as it’s vast, but once you work out where things are, you’re good to go.

A big shopping mall. Many shops, restaurants and people. After coming out from ABC store, we saw a show at the center stage. A traditional dance event was taking place. Enjoy the show very much.

Still huge although the food court was a little disappointing. Very hard to get a table and hard to even find a coffee in that area. Good range of shops. Went there on black Friday and place was busy but still not as crowded as previous visits.

This mall is one of a few favorites offering a world class collection of fine stores, entertainment and food options that’s hard to beat. I also like the fact that it’s outdoors since Honolulu has the perfect climate (not too hot, not too cold and except during storms) for comfortable walking and browsing. Too bad Saks closed in the International Marketplace. It would have been perfect here with the other upscale department stores (Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Bloomingdales). Even the Macy’s here has a better and broader selection of designer merchandise than you find in most. Great place to spend the day when you get tired of the beach.

Easy access to all the public transportation. Walmart is nearby too. Beach area is minutes walk. Waikiki Trolley Bus is also accessible until 8pm. Best price for food, alot of varieties.

As it is mentioned online, this mall is very large! I rated it the highest mark, as I haven't been to nor don't think I'll get to another mall this big again. There are so many stores to see, and we didn't have a long enough time here, as we had toured a museum in Honolulu late morning, then decided to get off the Waikiki bus to go to the mall, early afternoon. Seeing the floor plan, after I returned home in central Canada, I had missed seeing some stores that I could have gone in to. It was a bit confusing, knowing which way to go, as there are branches of corridors, off of the main corridor. In one area, we had to cross the path through the parking garage, where cars were coming in and out of! We picked up some items at the wonderful grocery store, Foodland Farms. We were also able to enjoy a show of Hula dancing at the main stage, in the mall. Although we enjoyed looking around, we didn't purchase anything.

This mall is huge and has pretty much every store you might want to shop at, including luxury high end stores, and even a Foodland grocery store. I read that it is the world's largest open air shopping center. We came here to walk around and to watch the free daily hula show at 5pm on the Centerstage. The mall is both outdoors and indoors and has free parking. To get to Foodland, we had to walk across the parking lot from the rest of the mall. This Foodland was very convenient for us since we stayed in the Waikiki area while on Oahu.

The Ala Moana Center in Honolulu is the world's largest open air shopping center with over 350 shops and over 150 food options. It offers shops for every need in every price segment, from inexpensive shops to 4 department stores to luxury boutiques. In addition, it also offers a variety of entertainment options such as free Hawaiian Hula shows and fashion shows. There is a huge free parking garage available for those arriving by car. Since it is very close to Ala Moana Beach Park, it can be easily connected. A stroll through the tropical ambience of the Ala Moana Center is particularly suitable on cloudy days, but keep in mind that prices in Hawaii are higher than those in the mainland US.

Depending on what you're looking for, this mall can be the right place or a waste of time. Most of the stores are high-end luxury chains that I had no desire to shop in; however, there is a food court and other dining options, and it's a nice place to walk through in the open air if you have a bit of time to kill I was disappointed not to find any local businesses to shop in. Very conveniently located near the Ala Moana beach and park.

You can really shop until you drop here. Plenty of branded stores as well as Hawaiian branded stores. You can spend as much or as little as you choose. For those under the misconception that items at the high end stores (Gucci, LV etc) are cheaper than the main land, the savings are minimal and in some cases not even 2% if that. For example the price of Gucci shoes in Hawaii is the same as mainland but handbags do carry a discount. Sales tax is cheaper here if you pay over 5% in your home state.
