My friend and I spent several hours here. We had lunch at the food court. Then we browsed the shops. After shopping, we went to The LUME, which is adjacent to the outlets. (There is supposed to be a tourist lounge where out of area visitors can pick up coupons. I could not find that lounge so I would say to download the coupons on your phone beforehand.)

Pretty average. Being from Tassie we thought this would be amazing, yet the prices did not seem that great. Me thinks the prices are inflated and then "heavily discounted". Having said that, we still spent lots in many shops and all the staff were very helpful.

Direct Factory Outlet (DFO) South Wharf suits shoppers with an eye fora bargain. DFO South Wharf has an outstanding range off apparel and footwear. DFO is a place to explore, it has all sorts of cost-effective products. DFO South Wharf is near the Melbourne Convention Exhibition Center.

Was so excited to go but unfortunately it didn't meet expectations. I think we just went at the wrong time, end of year is not the right time. It just looked like it was a seconds dumping ground. Waste of time.

Driving an RV can be a challenge especially in finding a parking place, but it wasn't too bad here as there is a parking garage but also an outdoor parking place. The roads around it are a little confusing so keep an eye out for the navigation. It is a good place to look around for certain items. What always gets me that there are quite a few expensice brands/shops. I understand they try to sell to, but in general i could do with some 'normal' shops. Having said that, there are many shops around that were interesting and it also provides different restaurants
