The Ferragamo Store! This is one of the best Ferragamo stores in the world. Small, discrete and stocked with some of the best of the brand. Louis is a product and service star. His knowledge of the intricacies and details of the fragrances and leather mastery is amazing. I have been a SF shopper since 2000 and every time I go to this store I learn something new about the brand and the way things are done. I just bought my first pair of SF boots which was a treat. Thank you to Everyone in the boutique. Our next visit to the Gold Coast and Pacific Fair is coming up. I have chosen the SF belt I think I will have next. A must visit! Ask for a fragrance lesson!
And a big shoutout to the Crew at Ella Bache as well!

This mall has just about every kind of shop including some high end boutique stores for expensive brands. Also has a movie complex. You may need an umbrella on rainy days as part is open to the elements!

Definitely a must visit for visitors staying on Broadbeach.
It’s been a year since we visited.
Stayed locally in Broadbeach with kids.
Loved it.
As visitors, getting there was (by memory) a $7 Uber fair from our Hotel, or an easy 10min walk.
Spent days there & still didn’t visit everything. But great for families, from budget shopping to high end, awesome food areas & cinema too.
I’m writing this review now because we were discussing our next vacation & I would love to go back.

It used to be the best place in the Gold Coast for shopping…… 5 hours free car parks moved to 3 hours a day…. Even if you leave and return a few hours later….your car is scanned at the main entrance so anyway you will have to pay after 3 hours…. ROBINA shopping center car parks moved is totally free…. Choice is yours

Just want to start with I’m not one to complain or even right a review but this is just not right.
I was there Thursday evening on the 29th of October, I came in to book an appointment, I walk up to the counter and the old brunette did not acknowledge that I was there and I waited at the counter for about 5 minutes, while she answering phone calls and doing other work on the computer I felt like i was invisible...
I work in hospitality and what I experienced tonight was completely unacceptable.
To be honest unsure why this miserable old lady has a job still, I have been on plenty of review sites and quite a number of people have complained about this particular woman.. something needs to be done.
Thank you
Sean

Went shopping for 2.5 hours and once I got to the car realised I lost my ticket. Had to pay $25 in order to get my car out of the parking. What a joke! When I asked them to look at the camera to see when I entered they said they’re unable to do so. I would have been happy to pay for the duration of the parking. And besides why did I get charged 8 hours when shipping se cree opened at 9am and I was leaving at 3pm. Shouldn’t I have been charged for 6 hours?

Lots of nice shops but incredibly hard to find the one you want. Much smaller shopping centres have interactive store locators and it amazed us all that such a large centre only had a very basic info panel which showed only a few of the more well known shops. Sadly we left without spending much or getting everything we wanted because it was too hard to trek up and down, getting lost and not finding the shops we knew were somewhere in the complex.

This shopping mall really had it all. Such a nice atmosphere with inside and outside areas which really make the experience nice. The multiple food vendors are also great and made my family happy and well fed. The best mall in queensland and far better than any we have in Sydney. If you need to go shopping I highly recommend going to pacific fair for a fun and amazing shopping experience. The only downside is that it might be a little too big!! often the stores are a 15min walk away but if you have the day to shop it really isn’t an issue.

Written 14 November 2017
Depending on your budget level, everyone's idea of a bargain is relevant to their budget. Harbour town is pretty good value, with lot's of outlet stores. Pacific Fair has both High end stores and mid range stores, then you have your K-mart and Target if you like shopping there.
