Default La Isla shopping mall...

How far is La Isla shopping mall from Temptation Resort?

How many minutes would it take me to get there if taking the bus?

What is there to see?

Anyone suggest La Isla or Market 28th?


Thanks so much!

Hola,

La Isla shopping mall has a very nice selection of stores and resturants. I prefer it to Market 28. Then I dont care much for the flea market environment.

Default La Isla

La Isla is only a few minutes by bus from Temptations, I dont remember the exact time frame, but I think it would be safe to say less then 10 minutes. I would much rather go to La Isla over Market 28 , a lot less hassle to get to La Isla then 28 and you wont have people hoarding all over you at the mall.

La Isla and Market 28 can only be compared to as a mall and a flea market. Las Isla is the mall, Market 28 the flea market. Totally different experiences, totally different shopping.

La Isla is a nice air conditioned mall that the chain stores run.

Market 28 is an open air market that the locals run.

Depends on what you want, apples or oranges?

Definitely La Isla mall. Forget about market 28. It definitely isn't worth the time and hassle.

Is it safe to go there alone during the day if you are by yourself?

Most definitely! If you take the bus you can ask the driver to announce when you are there...if you take a cab they will take you directly there. It is right in the hotel zone. Its basically an outdoor mall, not a flea market.
