This is one of the bigger malls in the Shellharbour/Illawarra area with over 200 stores. Parking is quite easy (covered and outdoor parking) and there are parking spaces nearer the mall which have a 3 hour time limit on it, the rest will be for as long as you need. Parking is still free which is useful. You get a good mix of fashion retail shops, food, supermarket and departmental stores. While the mall hours are the usual 9am to 5pm or thereabouts, the supermarkets (Coles and Woolworths) and Target and K-Mart open earlier and close later at 10pm. I must confess I shop more at Target, K-Mart and supermarkets because of the hours. There is also a fish market which sells a large variety of fresh fish and seafood like lobster, crabs, prawns, oysters etc. The prices for raw oysters are also much lower than you will get in Sydney city. I love the coffee emporium which does a good coffee and hot chocolate and pastries. Simply perfect for a pick me up. The place is huge and does not feel claustrophobic crowded even when there are many people on a weekend. This is a decent mall with almost everything you need. read more

STOCKLAND SHELLHARBOUR - 211 Lake Entrance Rd, Shellharbour NSW 2529 (AUSTRALIA) Why shop at Stockland Shellharbour? It has everything at the one location and under the one roof. Not only do they have major stores like Myer, Target, Kmart, Best & Less and two major supermarkets Coles and Woolworths, they also have over 250 specialty stores! If you can't find what you're looking for here, then you won't be able to anywhere else. What is more inviting is that they have over 3000 outdoor and indoor FREE parking spaces for your convenience - you can't beat that! People near and far travel here because of the FREE parking. What impressed me the most, but only discovered it by luck really? They have thought ahead into the future, not only do they have solar panels and wind turbines, to reduce their carbon footprint, they have also installed FREE Electric Car ChargePoints! Yes... you read it correctly! I only discovered this hidden treasure during one of their busy times (their busiest times are during the festive seasons or public holidays) when I couldn't find an indoor parking, so I drove to the 'Level 5 Rooftop' car park. And there it was, four Electric Car ChargePoints - side-by-side for those who have electric cars. To make your shopping experience a lot more pleasurable, people with toddlers, may hire 'Kidz Kabs for FREE. For the adults who are disadvantaged with mobility, they too can hire Motorised Scooters or Wheelchairs for FREE as well. Just go to 'Customer Care' to hire one for the day. Of course after a full day of shopping, you would like to wind down, there are so many places you can do that and refuel at the same time. For those with children, try 'The Coffee Club' (located on Level 1) or 'Fibonacci Coffee' (located on Ground Level). Children will be busy entertaining themselves while playing at 'My Funland' area you can have that deserved break while watching them at the same time. Service? Unbeatable! With friendly, knowledgeable people and friendly service to go with their smiles! The latest addition (September 2016) at Stockland Shellharbour is this amazing 20 metre high mural completed by two artists - Claire Foxton and Mikey Freedom. They have brought colour to this place. Their mural is to represent the region, people and lifestyle - I believe they delivered just that. And just behind this amazing mural is the new additional dining precinct. Grill'd - must taste their amazing burgers, they cater for the vegetarians and meat eaters. I highly recommend you try their hot chips - don't know which one to choose? Why not try 'Chips Share Plate' where you get to have the potato, sweet potato and zucchini chips served with three chip dips - sweet chilli mayo, hot chilli mayo and herbed mayo. Then there's Lone Star Rib House where you can sink your teeth into mighty tasty steaks and ribs - so succulent and tender! Now I am waiting for the opening of Chong Co Thai Restaurant sometime in October - I cannot comment on their food but I'm pretty sure this new addition to the food precinct won't be a disappointment. read more
