History
The mall originally opened in 1986 as "Briarcliffe Mall", with the name later changing to "Colonial Mall Myrtle Beach." It was the second mall to open in the area, with the first being the now-defunct Myrtle Square Mall. The name was changed to Myrtle Beach Mall in 2007 after being purchased by Jones Lang LaSalle, who acquired it from Colonial Properties Trust in July 2007. The mall's last major update was in 2004. It is one of two malls in the area, with the other being the larger, super-regional Coastal Grand Mall. The second Belk store was added in 1994, as the original Belk store required expansion but was landlocked.
In the early 2000s, the mall saw a large improvement, as a Bass Pro Shops was added, demolishing the Kmart which had previously anchored the mall at that end. That is the only Bass Pro Shops location in South Carolina, and has helped keep the mall a viable retail establishment in the Grand Strand.
On May 17, 2014,it was announced Peak Financial Partners, a private real estate investment firm,as well as Msuma Holdings Corp have acquired the mall for $45 million and plains for the 521,000-square-foot mall were on available Friday afternoon
On May 22, 2014, it was reported that the new owners of the Myrtle Beach Mall say that architects have already developed a couple of new concepts for the mall and there are plans to change the mall in order to get more shoppers in its 521,000 square feet. The first changes will be to redesign the food court, then do a conversion of the center of the mall, as well as wll as the theater area and the mall's front. At some point in the future the mall will get an the interior and exterior makeover that, which Icing by Claire's manager Erika Gillard said earlier this week that she thinks it is needed. Allan Davidov, partner at Misuma Holdings, which is Peak's partner in the venture, said that Misuma, as well as Peak have the same goal as Gillard and other merchants and that is to get more traffic in the mall. "Anything they can do to improve the mall is good," Steve Harm, owner of Countertops & More, said when he heard what Davidov and Priel have planned. "You've got to spend money to make money."
