Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood
The Miracle Mile Shops (formerly Desert Passage) is an enclosed shopping mall at Planet Hollywood, directly across the Strip from the Bellagio.
The minute you walk into the mall you’re transported to a cool desert oasis with themed store fronts and even a beautifully realistic sky painted on the rounded ceiling. Speaking only from personal experience, this is one mall that got it right - instead of feeling overwhelmed and rushed it’s a very pleasant and calming shopping venue!
The 500,000-square-foot, 1.5 mile long mall contains 140+ stores such as Bisou Bisou, Hugo Boss, Sur La Table, and Sephora, and 15 restaurants that offer everything from pizza to upscale dining to Ben & Jerry’s ice cream.
There is also a Theatre for the Performing Arts that is free to all mall visitors and currently runs a variety show Monday through Friday every quarter after the hour, from 1:15 - 7:15pm. And don’t miss the live rainstorm at Merchants’ Harbor, featuring thunder, lightning and pouring rain. The cloudburst takes place every hour on the hour Monday through Thursday and every half-hour Friday through Sunday.
The mall underwent a name change and a streamlining renovation in 2007 as a nod to its new Los Angeles theme when the hotel became Planet Hollywood (formerly the Aladdin). The uneven cobblestone floors have been replaced with more comfortable flooring, and mall entrances from the Strip sidewalk have been made more easily accessible as well.
Parking is free, and valet accepts tips only.
Mall Hours:
Sunday – Thursday: 10am – 11pm
Friday & Saturday: 10am – 12midnight
Open 365 days per year; Restaurant and nightclub hours vary
