Ellenton Premium Outlets is a shopper’s paradise, just a hop, skip and a jump away from the crystal-blue waters of Florida’s Gulf Islands. Whatever your Florida shopping pleasure, you’re likely to find it in the extensive variety of designer and brand-name outlet stores.
This outlet mall features more than 130 shops, including Coach Factory, Saks Off 5th, Dooney & Bourke and dozens more, all featuring top-quality apparel and accessories at significantly reduced prices. There are stores for every taste, from haute couture handbags at Coach to tasty snacks at Harry & David’s -- all offering discounts of up to 65% off.
Shop and Stay packages are also available, so you can find excellent area accommodations in perfect proximity. In addition, Ellenton Premium Outlets is pet-friendly, so bring the pooches for an afternoon. Leashed dogs are allowed in the common areas, and there are five pet-friendly stations located near Saks Off 5th, Van Heusen, Brooks Brothers Factory Store, Reebok and the food court. Stores that allow your furry friends inside will have a paw print decal on their window. If you don’t see a decal, check with the store before you bring Fido inside.
The food court also offers free WiFi, so take a shopping break and check your email, free of charge. Also, if you’re over 55, check out Prime Time Tuesdays for discounts of 10% off at more than 35 mall stores.
The outlets are located on exit 224 off I-75. They’re closed on Easter, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Hours are Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Sunday 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
