Orlando Premium Outlets: A Shopper's Guide to Both Locations

Outlet shopping is one of Orlando's most popular non-park activities, and the two Premium Outlet centers are the anchors. Between them you get a huge range of designer and brand-name stores at outlet pricing, which is a big draw for both domestic and international visitors.

The two locations

Orlando has two Premium Outlet centers, both near the International Drive area but at opposite ends:

• The International Drive location, at the north end of I-Drive, is the larger of the two and leans heavily into designer and luxury brands.
• The Vineland Avenue location, closer to the Disney/Lake Buena Vista area, is convenient if you are staying on the Kissimmee side and want a shorter drive.

From the main vacation-home communities, the Vineland Avenue center is usually the quicker trip.

How to shop them smart

• Pick one, not both, unless you are a serious shopper. Each is large enough to fill a half-day.
• Go early on weekends and holidays — parking and crowds build fast by late morning.
• Check for a VIP coupon book or app before you go; many brands stack extra outlet savings.
• Bring a bag strategy. It is a lot of walking, mostly outdoors, so dress for the Florida heat.

Staying nearby means you can shop in the morning, drop everything at the house, and still get pool time in the afternoon. See our Orlando-area vacation homes close to the outlets and the parks.
