Florida Mall
8001 S Orange Blossom Trail, Orlando, Florida
Despite the dozens of indoor and outdoor malls in Central Florida, The Florida Mall stakes its claim as the largest. Nearly 2 million square feet (609,600 square meters) of space is dedicated to shopping, dining, and entertainment. The Florida Mall attracts more than 20 million visitors annually—quite the feat, considering that’s more foot traffic than some theme parks in the area receive.
The Florida Mall is an attraction in itself. Retail therapy is always in session, thanks to hundreds of stores like Coach, ZARA, and Apple. Dining options can please any palate, while unique attractions like The Crayola Experience provide fun for the whole family.
Although it’s within a 12-mile (19.3-kilometer) drive of Orlando International Airport and the theme parks, the on-site Florida Hotel & Conference Center offers up the chance to stay and play for as long as you please.
The Crayola Experience is an interactive attraction that requires an admission ticket, though the Crayola retail store is always open to the public free of charge.
The Florida Mall’s attractions, stores, and restaurants are all on the ground floor, which can accommodate visitors with wheelchairs and strollers.
For families planning an overnight stay at the Florida Hotel, consider the special packages that include tickets to The Crayola Experience.
The Florida Mall is located 8 miles (12.9 kilometers) west of Orlando International Airport on Orange Blossom Trail. Most visitors arrive by private car, hail a taxi, or use a ridesharing app. Orlando’s Lynx bus system serves The Florida Mall via links 7, 37, 42, 107, 108, 111, 418, and FastLink 411.
The Florida Mall is a popular place to shop, dine, and simply hang out under the warm Florida sun. Expect the parking lots to be busy right when the mall opens and packed by the afternoon.
Ensure the little ones that a visit to The Florida Mall is far from boring. The Play Park, located near The Crayola Experience, contains more than 3,000 square feet (914.4 square meters) of exciting room to run, climb, jump, and play. This nature-inspired play pace has hidden surprises throughout to keep the kids entertained in imaginative ways.
