This place has it all! It is the most beautiful outdoor mall, with fountains, lights, greenery. Great shopping and plenty of restaurants are available. A large movie theater, outdoor screen, Ferris wheel, and other entertainment are located here. Our family especially loves coming here at night at Christmas time.

South Coast Plaza is definitely the best shopping mall in California. I found it refreshing that the three shops that we shopped at had really nice employees. They were knowledgeable and friendly. They always made us feel that our needs were most important. “Mars Li” in Georgio Armani was wonderful. Georgio Armani is very lucky to have him working there. Austin Schroeter in Ralph Lauren was very helpful and courteous. Yes you expect that kind of service in high end shops. But you don’t always get that. He even offered to carry my purchase out to our car. Sabrina in Escada was also very nice, helpful and knowledgeable. They each represent South Coast Plaza perfectly. That is why we love to shop there. They have a few hundred shops to choose from. Great quality shops. Plus lots of really good restaurants.

Bella Terra is located of 405 Freeway at exit at Beach Blvd. To experience the many great restaurants, Department stores, Coffee Shops and Century Theater, including Old World Center [Bavarian], Costco, Grocery stores and Staples and Barns and Nobel. To experience all that is offered one would want to book into Hotel Huntington Beach, or if more time is needed, lease a new beautiful apartment located right at the west side of the parking lot and parking garage. Parking is free. Bella Terra is quite different from the Shopping Centers in Costa Mesa and Newport Beach. Bella Terra feels more like a beautiful town dedicated to shopping and entertainment. And I am unanimous.

We visited on a Thursday for lunch and a stroll around the mall. We had an excellent lunch sitting outside with a lovely ocean view. The shops seems mostly geared toward teens or young people but it is worth a visit.

We found this outlet mall walking distance from our hotel so decided to go. The mall has many shops and outlets plus many restaurants with great food plus a kind of fast food area which has many of the standard fast food outlets. Great to work around with many great deals. Nice atmosphere as relaxed with music in the background which was nice.
