    My favorite shopping mall. It has mostly all the brands, without being an overwhelmingly big shopping mall. Hypermarket, food court, cinema and a playground for kids. Enough free parking space, . My favorite part is that it has plenty of outside areas, while still having an indoor space if it’s too cold (or too warm).

    Good selection of shops here plus a huge supermarket selling just about everything! Quite a few fast food options too (Burger King, KFC, Pizza Hut etc). Plenty of seating and toilets available here too. Ample parking which seemed to be free.

    Very clean and safe shopping-center. Most shops are on an portico, so there is in the most regions fresh air. Very clean toilets and cheap but good coffeeshops. Lot of shops and a very big supermarket.

    The shopping centre was beautiful and had so much to offer. Many different types of stores like luxury clothes and jewelry to fast food restaurants upstairs. Definitely reserve some time to look around the place and find what interests you.

    I visited the shopping center and was pleasantly surprised by what I found. The center was very clean and had a diverse range of stores as is typical of shopping centers, along with a good selection of dining options. The center was bustling with activity and had a very pleasant atmosphere. Overall, the people were friendly and welcoming. The only issue I encountered was the presence of pigeons, which would land on the upper parts of the wooden structure and leave droppings. There is a high likelihood of getting hit by a bird dropping or having it land in your food or drink. However, this issue could easily be addressed with bird deterrent measures. Additionally, the walls were also covered in pigeon droppings. Despite this, I still highly recommend the shopping center as it is truly worth a visit. The culinary offerings are good and the prices are reasonable. Despite the pigeon issue, I give the shopping center a five-star rating and will definitely return in the future.

    When in need of a shopping break and some international coffee and food options this is your place in Faro. A really good place for a beach and warm weather break. This is the shade you need.

    The largest shopping mall in Faro with good shops. Food and beverage outlets could be better but anyway, it's a nice shopping experience. Especially, the outdoor shops are nice.

    You can pretty much buy anything here from clothes to food, furniture to bottle openers - there's all the medical and health places too as well as a vast selection of eateries inside and out 😁☀️

    Very nice, open air, good energy mall. Good food area and some good shops including Apple re-seller, Lacoste etc It does not have big name designers, but no mall in the Algarve does per se.

    One can find good collections of beach wear in this mall. Best part is if you have kid who dont like shopping. There are bunch of best people in the ground floor who will take care of your kid. They keep them busy and happy. I could shop happily and all thanks to these people. There is large food court and wide variety of food choice for you. You can see live how they cook your noodles.

    Huge shopping mall with massive Auchan supermarket - perfect to stock up for a week's shopping - plus loads of shops and also a great food court on the upper floor with plenty of good quality, tasty options including Mexican, Poke Bowls, Sushi and even Kebabs.

    Enjoyed our family time there! Comfortable for adults and kids. Ice skating - the best !!! Everything there is very well-organized. Definitely want to be back in winter.

  • 5/5 Alina L. 4 months ago on Google
    I love this place! Because it is an open space the shopping experience is quite calm. The bathrooms have drinking water and makeup stand. You can leave your luggage there and have fun while waiting for your bus/plane. The food court and terrace is amazing. And the Christmas lights are awesome, you can really feel the unique Christmas+Portuguese feel. There are things that are quite important to note: 1. The floors are really slippery after the rain. I had to carefully walk around until I got the shoes in which it was safe to walk. I think the administration can put anti slip mats after the rain, not only the “wet floor” sign. 2. The navigation can be quite confusing, after some time I got it, but it wouldn’t hurt to have more signs for people not to walk in circles as I did. Overall, I can for sure tell that this is the best mall that I’ve ever been to, I’m really anxious and this place definitely suitable for people like me.

    Great place to go shopping. Nice open space with shops dotted around the outside. Good variety of shops and eateries. Lovely day out

  • 5/5 Deeptanil C. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic experience. Bought a belt and a dress for me wife. Kids absolutely loved the playing area. Shops were big and not overly crowded. Parking was free for that day, not sure why. And most importantly very close to the Faro airport. Places to eat if hungry

  • 5/5 Katryna S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great for Kids, families, shoppers! Has something or everyone! We enjoyed the time walking around, shopping, stopping by Starbucks, and generally taking in the atmosphere! Where we are from, our malls are all gone so this was a wonderful thing to enjoy for a few hours! My child loved the play area!

  • 5/5 Sandra W. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice shopping center, some regular stores, so always good. Above you have a food corner with a lot of choice. For the kids you can get a bracelet for €4,00 to play unlimited. Recommended for a daily trip in Faro combined with this shopping center

    Guys, they have a huge flamingo in the middle of the interiour court!!! How can you not five star it? The lady at the pharmacy gave me a really good cream for my sunburn. It was nice being able to grab a kfc but the best part is the fountain and the benches that can give you a moment to rest.

    Not so big but organised !

  • 5/5 Viljamin S. 2 years ago on Google
    Because of the playground and activities for children I must give all 5 stars. Other than that it's huge, confusing and slow. Only for true shoppers.

  • 5/5 Eric W. 2 years ago on Google
    Great shopping mall. Beautiful space. One of the biggest grocery stores I've ever seen outside the USA.

  • 5/5 Arts and Crafts Art s. 2 years ago on Google

    Good selection of stores with affordable shopping. Restaurants had a nice variety of food. Had a nice time there👍

  • 4/5 Mary Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Masks are compulsory within the forum. All shops are open and reasonable busy. People in Portugal are very careful and no one gets away with ignoring the rules. The cleanliness is excellent and I wish that it was adhered to the same in Scotland
