Best shopping near to Gatorland?

Guest · 10 Feb 17, 05:42 PM

Hi all, hope someone can help with this one, please?

I am planning a day away from the parks, for our holiday in July/Aug. I am thinking of having a lie-in to start, followed by breakfast somewhere on i-drive, followed by a drive over to Gatorland for a few hours.

After this, I reckon it'll be around 3-4pm, so thought it would be good to go shopping and maybe grab an evening meal at the shopping place, or nearby.

So, the question is...where is best for shopping near to Gatorland?

My initial thought is to cut across to LBV outlet, then loop up to I-drive South to get back to the hotel later. Have I answered my own question, or can anyone suggest something better?

Many thanks,

Chris.

The Loop at Kissimmee would be your closest shopping area and even the Florida Mall would be an easy 15mins drive from Gatorland. Just a thought. After Florida Mall, easy drive back along Sand Lake Road to I drive

The Loop and Crosslands is nearby within a few minutes of Gatorland. Plenty of new stores keep opening, Burlington Coat factory has recently opened. Ross, Marshalls, Hobby Lobby.
At The Loop, Penneys, Ross, Old Navy, AE and Michaels. Lots of smaller shops.

We always follow a trip to Gatorland with a visit to the Florida Mall, but then I've not heard of the Loop before.
