Evaluation

Corte Ingles is the largest retailer in Spain and among world leaders in luxury department stores. You were there? Please send us your evaluation and grade. We would love to hear from your family!

Son's evaluation: It is my favorite shopping mall. It is similar to La Cañada. I go here for toys, video games, food and maybe shoes. It is surrounded by restaurants and little shops. Grade: 10 

Daughter's evaluation: I really like this shop because it has lots of different sections, there are sections on toys, sports, purses and wallets, food and shoes. It is surrounded by resaurants outside and there is a little cafe inside. In the toys section there are games, toys for little kids and bigger kids and there is also a part for nintendo games, wii games, etc. There are also nintendo cases. Grade: 9.0 

Mom's evaluation: Thank goodness for El Corte Ingles! It´s a bit more pricey than other places, but if you can´t find what you need anywhere else, they´ll have it. It´s good to know you can fall back on it if all else fails. 

Within the store you will also find a supermarket called Hipercor that sells everything from food to electronics. The mall has a gourmet section upstairs that is very pricey, but most food shopping takes place in Hipercor. 

Most of the staff speak English as the store´s location is in the heart of Puerto Banus and there are plenty of tourists around. 

I have started to buy most appliances and electronics at ECI, because they have an excellent return policy that is quite lengthy and absolutely no hassle. 

I was excited to see them recently open a Kiehl´s section and a Benefit counter in the cosmetic department. These are American brands which are never seen before around here. 

The shopping center also includes a post office, hairdresser, coffee shop, auto repair shop, shoe repair, key copying, watch repair, optician, florist, lottery agent, show ticket office, travel agency and more. So you really can do your one-stop shopping here. Grade: 10
