This new store at Miromar Outlets will be Barazi’s first location. The outdoor shopping center features over 120 retail outlets and was recently voted best shopping mall in Southwest Florida. Located at 10801 Corkscrew Rd. in Estero between Naples and Fort Myers, the beautiful beaches and palm tree lined streets of the surrounding area make it an ideal destination for Maui Wowi.
