Located in Sunrise, Florida – about 15 miles west of downtown Fort Lauderdale – Sawgrass Mills mall is a shopping destination like no other. Known by locals simply as "Sawgrass," it is the largest outlet mall in the United States. Within the 350-store complex, you will find a variety of retail sections with shops ranging from budget-friendly options like a Super Target, Marshalls, J.Crew Factory and Nike Factory Store to the Colonnade's exclusive luxury-brand outlets like Tory Burch, Prada, Jimmy Choo and Kate Spade. Sawgrass also houses a cinema with an IMAX movie theater, a post office, two food courts and several restaurants, including The Cheesecake Factory, California Pizza Kitchen, Rainforest Cafe (a great spot for families) and conveyor belt style SushiGami. If you hope to see the entire mall, plan on spending at least one full day here.
Sawgrass Mills is such a major shopping destination that it is not uncommon to see vacationers wheeling empty suitcases around the mall and filling them up with their purchases as they shop. Though Sawgrass Mills no longer offers an official tour bus to and from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, there are third-party direct shuttles and town car services available. Still, the best way to travel to and from the airport (and around South Florida in general) is by renting a car of your own. To cater to international travelers, the mall even has its own currency-exchange station. For transportation from the Fort Lauderdale-International Airport, take the Tri-Rail train to the Fort Lauderdale station and transfer to Broward County Transit bus No. 22 westbound directly to the mall.
Recent visitors note that the mall can become extremely crowded – especially on weekends and around the holidays – and you may have to search for a spot in the free parking lot. To avoid these issues, get to the mall at opening time or plan your visit for a weekday. You can also look for a parking space in a less popular corner of the mall or opt for valet parking (between $10 and $25) outside of the Oasis and Colonnade sections, or in front of the Seasons 52 restaurant. Sawgrass is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday. Holiday hours vary. To plan your shopping expedition, visit the Sawgrass Mills website.
