Fodor's Review:

PV's most popular mall with locals, Plaza Caracol, aka Gigante Plaza, is lively and full on weekends and evenings, even when others are dead. Its anchors are the Gigante supermarket and the adjacent LANS department store. Surrounding these are tiny stores dispensing electronics and ice cream, fresh flowers, manicures, and inexpensive haircuts. Adding to the commercial center's appeal is the sixplex movie theater.
