La Isla Mall is an upscale shopping center currently operating in Cancun and Acapulco, now the developers have their sights set on Puerto Vallarta.
The planned La Isla Puerto Vallarta is to connect to the current Peninsula Plaza overlooking the Pitillal River.
Once completed, the La Isla Mall will boast stores and brands of national and international prestige, upscale restaurants and boutiques.
The “Vallartenses Voice” asks you, does Puerto Vallarta need another shopping mall?

Some feedback from social media:
Dulce AP: I think we need a good mall with more stores & restaurants, It’s difficult to find options here!
Ed Brimer: I don’t even go to the mall that’s already built lol
Marie Connelly: What we need is better infrastructure to welcome the tourism and reopen the Malecon.. Too many business closed down because of that dumb move
Marie Connelly: No we don’t?? We just need better stores in the mall
What we need is places where the family can have fun together! Bowling alleys, public roller skating rinks, parks. Not malls,clubs or bars!
Absolutely NOT!! What percentage of the local people can even afford shopping at Liver Pool mall?? Unless of course they are catering to the tourists who don’t come here to shop in a mall!! Leave the in the bigger cities and clean up the shops that already exist. Morelos looks like slum town and hurts the image of Vallarta. I say let’s stay small and leave the BIG for the big cities! Ugh!
NO!!!! We do NOT need another mall. We need to inform owners of the downtown properties, in particular, as to how they can rent out their storefronts and how to keep their renters.
We need to clean-up the downtown, including windows, make it colorful and seasonal.
Support from ALL of Vallarta is needed. Do all of these things and there will be more jobs, more business, more happy people. Viva Puerto Vallarta!
The Acapulco-ization of Vallarta is exactly the wrong way to go. Support local businesses.
We need to improve the stores and street behind the Malecon…
No, let’s not Americanize Vallarta. This is Mexico. Support the small, local stores in Centro and the Romantic Zone.
Please NO! Go to the US if you want to go hang out in a big mall. Let’s support small, local businesses… encourage shopping in Centro, encourage local entrepreneurs… We do not need conspicuous consumption… let’s keep it simple, and keep it local!!!
No… We need to fill up the empty spaces in centro first
nooooo…..make the existing shops better…..plus soooo many empty ones already
Definitely NOT! Centro is dying and another mall will not help. Of course the developers could care less.
We don’t need any up scale mall, it would hurt the small businesses we have now
No, it will take away from all the local downtown businesses? See what happened in US when big malls went in. No no please no more
