Coconut Mall reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', as part of the first wave of the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]''. It appears as the fourth and last race of the [[Golden Dash Cup]]. Coconut Mall is the only ''Booster Course Pass'' classic course not originally from ''Mario Kart Tour'' to be the final course of a cup without serving as such in a prior game, as {{classic-link|DS|Waluigi Pinball}}, {{classic-link|Wii|Maple Treeway}}, and {{classic-link|3DS|Rainbow Road}} are the final courses of ''Mario Kart 7''{{'}}s Banana Cup, [[Leaf Cup]], and [[Special Cup]] respectively, while {{classic-link|Wii|Rainbow Road}} is the final course of ''Mario Kart Wii''{{'}}s Special Cup. | Coconut Mall reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', as part of the first wave of the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]''.

This time, the course is completely redesigned, retaining its shortened length from ''Mario Kart 7''. The archway starting line has been stylized to instead resemble two palm trees curving into one another with a pair of shopping bags and some palm tree leaves occupying the space between the top, and now uses the modern ''Mario Kart'' logo. Like with ''Mario Kart 7'', there are no longer posters containing Miis, instead, they are replaced with simple adverts. Among advertisements and sponsors in the course, signs that make references to the [[Vanilla Lake]] courses from ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' and [[GCN Dino Dino Jungle|Dino Dino Jungle]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' are present, most notably at the starting line and just before the second U-turn. The escalators have now been replaced with flat [[Conveyor Belt|conveyor belts]], with arrows that are similar to the ones in the ''Mario Kart 7'' version, but much brighter. The floors are now orange instead of white. The top path exiting the mall is a [[Glide Ramp]] like in ''Mario Kart 7'', while the bottom path exiting the mall is a [[Ramp|boosted ramp]] similar to ''Mario Kart Wii''. The arches after the ramps and before the parking lot have been removed. Some other changes and additions include [[Mario Kart TV|MKTV]] vans parked outside the mall, a cruiser ship and sailboats appearing in the harbor outside of the mall, and the music being remade for the game. The course's music was also used for the reveal trailer of the DLC.

This is the only course in the Booster Course Pass to feature [[Noki]]s, likely due to the mall being heavily influenced by ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' in its original appearance. | ||
Inside the mall, the first shortcut is once again a shortcut that requires a speed boost to utilize, though its extension is no longer off-road and does not require any further boosts to execute. At the turn after the second pair of conveyor belts, there is a large mural of a landscape resembling an above-ground level from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', featuring [[? Block]]s, [[Brick Block]]s, [[Empty Block]]s, and [[Warp Pipe]]s. The Coco Burger restaurant before the turn into the Glide Ramp now features a sign reading "Food Park" above it. On the glide ramp, the "Have a nice day!" sign has been removed. | Inside the mall, the first shortcut is once again a shortcut that requires a speed boost to utilize, though its extension is no longer off-road and does not require any further boosts to execute.

*In the original ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' version of the course, the Dash Panels are rainbow-colored, similarly to the versions seen in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', whereas every other track in the game uses a pink-yellow-orange coloration.
