The Village at Hunter’s Creek

I’ve been a massage envy member for over a year visiting several locations throughout Florida, but this one is by far the worst massage envy I’ve been to! The staff at the front desk are highly incompetent at their position. Booked a couples massage one week in advance through Christian at the front desk. After checking in for our appointment and ten minutes of waiting we were told that we weren’t booked for a couples massage. The staff was not helpful at all for resolving their mistake. Total waste of our time and will definitely not be returning to this location again.

Really great shops in this area! It’s a really clean layout with water fountains and childrens’ play areas, which is a really nice touch.
I like the array of shops here, and the layout is spread out enough so there is not really a lot of congestion. Parking seems to be easy to find when needed, so there is no issue there.
It can be somewhat difficult to find some stores as they may be hidden. The signage could be a little bit more clear, so driving around is going to occur if looking for a store the very first time.
It seems that so far I only come here for Venezia Café and Bistro Europa Express. However, there is also a Cuban Café, the InterAmerican University of Puerto Rico, and Massage Envy, among many other shops.
In addition, events like the farmers market, are held here.

I love it here! you can get BEER at the house of beer, and then get SUSHI at MIKADO! Can’t get any better than that!

I am writing this more to provide an alternative point of view to Amanda. The Village is NOT a stuffy, dress-​up type of place and I would say the prices are VERY affordable. I would view it as more casual-​chic and certainly a place you can go no matter what you’re wearing. Also, I live in Hunter’s Creek and we spend a lot of time here and usually in my shorts, a tee-​shirt, and flip flops. Below is an incomplete list of stores to give an idea of what their range of options are.
Anchor Stores:
— Orlando Ale House
— Applebee’s (please at least consider one of the other places first)
Restaurants:
— Mikado Sushi
— Flat Rock’s Pizza
— Padrino’s Cuban
Drinks:
— House of Beer
Specialty Places:
— Venezia Bakery & Café
— All Italian Market (coming soon!)
Events:
— Farmer’s Market
— Events in partnership with the local schools

This little shopping center off of john young parkway has started to really become a wonderful place full of restaurants with great quality food and beverages such as Mikado Sushi, Padrinos, Wishes Brew Tea shop, House of Beer, and a Cigar Bar.
Also in the area is a some quick bite cheaper eats still good, such as Tijuana Flats, and some other chains.
It’s a wonderful area with less traffic and hassle than the near by Loop.

Getting on Down to The Villages!
The Villages is a great shopping center right off of John Young Parkway, and has a little something for everyone
The Good:
Bring the Kids: The Villages has two suprisingly nice playground areas with slides and rock-​climbingwhere the kids will just love to play after mom and dad get some hard shopping done. The grass is astroturf, so the play areas are very safe as well.
Fun Events: Although the shopping center just opened, they have several events planned throughout the month including kiddie back to school events and nightime concerts by local artists.
Free Wifi!: Need I say more?
The Bad:
High class: Most restraunts and stores here are very classy, and this is one of those shopping centers you need to dress up to go to. I was quite underdressed last itme I went, and I really felt self conscious about it.
The Villages is a great shopping center if you are looking for trendy clothes, an expensive meal, and a nice place to park the kids.
Overall 7.7÷10 Good Shopping Fun
