Any other malls?

We have been to the usual ones - premium outlets, Florida Mall and Altamonte Springs. We don't mind driving. Are there any others we should check out - just really to give us a change of scenery.

Thanks

We like the LOOP on Osceola Parkway or Winter Garden Village on the 429 Toll Road both pretty similar they are open air more retail parks really with loads of places to eat and the LOOP even has a cinema. Maybe not the best if the weather is bad but lovely for strolling around in the evenings.

Try the Seminole Mall, its off the 417 near Sanford. Eagle Ridge Mall is about an hour down hwy 27. Lakeland Mall is on the way to Busch Gardens. Or, google Florida Malls and you'll find more than you could visit.

Another vote for the Loop, not everyones cup of tea clothing wise as no big brands really but worth a trip.

As above, we love the Loop and Winter Garden Village. Maybe check out some on the Gulf Coast and have a beach visit too.

We did go to one earlier in the year when we went to clearwater - I think it was called Westfield.

I like all of the above - somewhat less frenetic than the Florida Mall.

Fashion Square Mall near the city centre is pretty good and West Oaks Mall and Oviedo Marketplace are OK too but none have the variety and number of stores offered at the Florida Mall.

During sales, those items which are snapped up quickly at the Florida Mall are often to be found at the smaller ones - my DW has bought a number of leather handbags at Dillards at Lakeland Mall which had already sold out at the Florida Mall.

Mall at Milennia? More high-end shops than things like Premium Outlets (love Premium Outlets, though ) We didn't buy much but it's a lovely mall, massive with marble floors - that sort of stuff.

Tried Eagle Ridge Mall 2 visits ago and wasn't impressed, although I don't want to put you off visiting something new - it may have improved.

No, It's even bleaker than Lakeland!

Here is quite good.
