Sunland Park Mall

When will you wake up from the dead? Even zombies show more excitement than you. I feel like I should have a violin and tune to the Titanic sunken song. Cielo is so much hyper and better than you.

This is what would be referred to as a dead mall. I’ve been to a few of these and this place is definitely high up on the list. They actually have some of the more mainstream stores like Macy’s, Dillards, Express, The Limited, New York & Company, Old Navy, and Abercrombie & Fitch. It’s really not a bad place in fact. I like to come here when I don’t feel like being around people!

Maybe it was the day I went? Maybe it’s just too out of the way? Maybe Cielo Vista and/​or the Outlets are just too good? But this place was EMPTY! On a weekend too. I mean it’s small-​ish, but we walked around the entire mall, and it seemingly had everything a mall needs (store wise). My wife actually saw several stores she likes. Food court was decent. Parking was plentiful. Yea this place was ghost town… And honestly that made it more appealing! We were like wow, we can come shop till we drop and so so in peace! Hmm… Will have to come back again and see if it was just a fluke or not. Either way, way over on the west side, Sunland Park mall sits. Few stand alone department stores surround it. Few restaurants… Sprouts Farmers Market… I dunno. Seems legit to me? Worth a shot of you’re on that side of town.

The is the mall that could-​have-​been. It is a fairly good sized mall, however badly needs a makeover. Tge concept is good, but it just needs some work. For starters, the place was a ghost town. Several stores were not well kept, and there were a few on their last leg. Almost half of the escalators were out of order or not turned on, whichever was the case. Another thing that troubled me was that there seemed to be no restrooms. I was finally directed toward one deep inside one for the department stores. As far as inside the mall itself, I did not see a single sign pointing toward a restroom. This mall is definitely sub-​par overall, and is very disappointing for a Simon mall. New ownership and a new makeover would do this mall some good.
*Edit* If you enjoy mall walking, this is the mall for you!

Mall is less than mediocre and so is the service. Walked in, the associates made eye contact. Didn’t greet us, rude. Small store, didn’t find what I was looking for. No thanks to the girl on her cell phone that wasn’t wearing a badge.

I like it because it is never crowded. I am really not much of a clothes shopper for me, but when my family needs something we go to sun land park mall. Also the food court might be a little limited, but there are restaurants all over the place outside, across the parking lot or across the street. It’s a great place to go if you want to get all your shopping done because if you can’t find something, there are also more stores across the street. But mostly I go cause it’s not crowded :)

This mall has a good amount of well known stores BUT it can use some TLC. The décor is outdated but on the bright side it’s not as crowded as Cielo Vista.

Overall, the mall is in terrible condition. It badly needs a facelift and like other reviewers mentioned, the escalators are often broken and in need of repair.
Specifically speaking, Chick-​fil-​A does have an outlet here, which is one of the only reasons why one would even visit this mall as there are no other Chick-​fil-​A outlets in west El Paso. On that note, I’ve always received great service when buying food here and the entire staff at Chick-​fil-​A are always polite.
Gymboree inside Sunland Park mall is quite the opposite. The staff is rude, don’t even greet, especially the older woman that works in the mornings. I’ve gone there several times and she has often ignored me even though I’m the only customer in the store!
Dillard’s MAC counter has also left me with a negative shopping experience. This mall is really not worth the trip if you live on the opposite side of town.

Ahhh, Sunland Park Mall. *Sigh* It could be on par with Cielo Vista and even Basset, but it’s almost the one forgotten mall in EP. I still love it though and with the movie bistro that’s opening in the coming year, I have high hopes SPM will make a huge comeback.
This mall is almost always relatively empty (which can sometimes be a good thing), but it has so many stores that it’s baffling. SPM boasts the only two-​story Forever 21… that means it’s the only one with men’s clothing too. Victoria’s Secret, Agaci, PacSun (pretty sure I saw a sign saying they now carry Brandy Melville), Aeropostale, American Eagle, FYE, Claire’s, Hollister, Gymboree, and others far too numerous to mention. One pro about this mall never really being packed is almost nothing is over picked. It has just about every store you’d expect, so shopping wise you’ll be pleased.
The food court is kind of lacking. Subway, Teaze, Steakpeados, and a few others. Of course there are a few other food places throughout the mall, but not many. My issue with the food court is the cleanliness. Birds, there are birds in the food court. I get it, the skylights are entirely to high for anyone to catch them… but these birds are complete a-​holes. Not only will they fly over you as you’re eating, they also sit nearby scrutinizing everything about you, scheming how to take your food away or ruin your lunch. Okay, maybe they’re not that bad, but who wants to be cautious of bird bombs while eating?
SPM does seem a little worn down as well, they could revamp everything so it doesn’t seem so… so old. The «art» down stairs, I don’t get it. Giant bugs. I guess it’s just not for everyone. With a little TLC this mall could be great again, but I think only good things are in store for SPM.

Maybe it’s just me, but I find that this is a pretty good mall. It’s clean, most of the employees are friendly, and they have some really nice stores. I’m a huge fan of the Greenery, there is a nice Macy’s and the Sears is good too.
It’s not enormous by any means, and it could definitely use a few more doors to allow disabled people better access, but overall, this is a pretty good mall.

Terrible facility, outdated, escalators always broken, lights always out, broken tile everywhere, leaks in the roof when it rains, management staff is oblivious to issues and uses dictator like ways to keep tenants from complaining. Oh and let’s not mention the over abundance of vacant spots inside. Not sure but I bet Simon Malls is pumping every bit of revenue they can into Cielo Vista Mall in an effort to bring it up to standard before The Fountains open.

Not the best mall ever. Its nicely bright. Its pretty clean. Most likely cause noone is here. Food court is is weak.

Not the best mall but for what we have to work with in El Paso is better then the others. Has a Macy’s, Sears, Dillards, Old Navy, some nail shops (both of which I don’t care for), sports shirts and hats, some shoe stores. I did find the Santa at Christmas time very nice but the pictures were overpriced. Every one is pretty friendly here. The stores are clean and well organized. It is hard to find good service in El Paso so when I find it I tend to shop at that place instead of spending my money in places that could care less if I shop there. I like the Sears store most I have yet to find a rude or lazy person working there. Always helpful and very nice.

I have never seen an empty mall in my life however if you go to the Sunland Mall that is what you will find. Several stores have closed down and the only thing you will find there of interest is Macy’s and Dillard’s. The food court? What food court… it has like six eateries. Not the best mall unless you are running in to Macy’s for the sales. Cielo is the best mall in El Paso… did I mention Sunland is one of two malls in the whole city. Good Luck Shopping.
