Miromar Outlets, Estero

[Susan62]

Hi, we have just returned after 4 beautiful days at Marco Island and then 10 days at Kissimmee. On the way back to Kissimmee, we stopped at the Miromar Outlets which is between Naples and Fort Myers. All I can say is 'wow', we couldn't believe it! The car park only had a few cars in it and the shops were offering us discounts as we walked into them. I got discount on the spot at Coach and the Sunglass Hut. I managed to 'bag' excuse the punt two Coach handbags for $200 (excluding tax) and one of those was a beautiful black handbag which was from the Coach shop! (Apparently only 3% of bags from the Coach shops end up in the outlets, so I was really lucky! ). We ended up spending 5 hours there and did all our shopping in that time. We met our other DD at Orlando, as she had been on a cruise with her partner and my DH said, if it wasn't such a drive, then we wouldn't bother with the outlets in Orlando. So if anyone is heading that way, it's definitely worth stopping by and negotiating. (Got talking to a lady in Coach and parently it's their Winter period now - really - and things are very slow as the snow birds have left! ). Susan. (Sorry, so many typo's must be jet lagged! ).

Totally agree, we have been down there several times and got some real bargains.

We love it there!

I am never out of it! Oh the bargains I have had over the years.

All my best shopping is done there! We are lucky enough to have a couple of sets of friends who live in Naples :-)
The Abercrombie outlet can usually be relied upon to keep the teens happy, and the Bloomingdales outlet always produces jeans etc.
Definitely worth a visit if you're down that way.

Looks ace... shame it's nearly a 3 hour drive from Orlando

We'll be there one afternoon this week during our usual Sept stay!
September is the low season on the Gulf Coast & more common to see German rather than Brit tourists around the FMB/Naples area during this time.

We've been to Altamonte Mall as well but I must say it was much better here. Shops and car parks were empty! Maybe you could condense it with an over night stay, it was really beautiful at Naples beach. There were turtle nests along the beach and we saw dolphins from the pier! Susan

Funnily enough to we did hear German people at the mall, which we're just not used to in Florida but funny thing is my DD got a message via FB from an old primary school friend (she's now 22 btw), who asked if it was her at the mall as he wasn't sure. How unreal is that? Susan
