I made two visits in July 2022 to the Sanda Premium Outlet. Once by bus from Sannomiya Station with my daughter, around mid July (return ticket 1360 Yen pp, duration 55 minutes, picturesque route through the mountains). Second trip was with a friend, in her car. We had to pay a toll of 1500 yen each way.
Both times I purchased beautiful designer goods and came back happy with my shopping. It's not too large and overwhelming like some of the outlets in USA and Europe. There was a small food court where you could buy udon, Italian food, ice-cream etc. There were plenty of wooden benches with sun umbrellas scattered all-over the outlet where shoppers could stop and have a rest. Restrooms were easy to find.
The second time I went was July end when most stores where on sale. People were quietly lined up outside the major brands like Prada, Ferregamo etc. Even though it was crowded people were polite and civilized. Overall a very pleasant experience. I was able to avail of TAX FREE in every store. That was a good savings for me.
Next to the outlet was Aeon Mall, a few minutes walk connected via bridge on 2nd floor. It was full of interesting Japanese stores selling local and imported items. You can find clothes, shoes, sports wear, home decor, kitchen items, super market, coffee shops, restaurants, and one multi designer goods store called Happiness.
I definitely recommend Sanda outlet!

This is an outlet mall that was actually worth going to.
The selection of stores was really decent. All the majors are here.
We went during the week, just after the COVID-19 restrictions were lifted. There were relatively few people there. It wasn't raining, it wasn't hot - it was perfect weather to wander around.
Food options are quite minimal. There is one food court and a restaurant area that has four restaurants only.
The prices are not as cheap as we expected.
Plenty of parking available.

This outlet has 210 shop and it is well design for the area. . However , the brands inside are not as big as those which I went to in Paris and Italy .. so I did not managed to buy much . This place was a bit tad far also as I stay in homachi osaka (central osaka)… I took 1.5 hr to come by train and bus.
When going back , I saw there are some bus and I took bus from this outlet to Shin Osaka .. that was more convenient.. bus ride was about 45 min to shin osaka station and cost 890yen. A good ride after a long shopping day .

This was my first visit, taking a train and a bus.
The official bus ride was about 20 minutes, but it took about 30 minutes, even though I took the bus that was scheduled to arrive almost at opening time, probably because it was a holiday, and even if I took the first bus back to the outlet, it was only 30 minutes.
The site is quite large, but it's flat, so it's easy to walk around.
I guess it's similar to Sano, Shisui, and Kisarazu.
Gotemba is divided into three areas, Karuizawa is a zigzag walk,
and Iruma is compact, but it's a pain to go up to the second floor,
which I personally liked better.
In addition, there was a wide selection of products, and I was able to find many items, including brand-name items that I couldn't find in Karuizawa or Gotemba.
I think the timing also played a part, but it was worth the visit and I was very satisfied.
I'd like to visit again if I have the chance.

The express train from Osaka station took 40mins directly to Sanda. Then just outside of the station we hopped onto a local bus that stopped directly at the doorstep of the outlet. The setting is similar to Gotemba outlet in Tokyo with all the known international brands like Bottega Veneta, YSL, Prada, Celine, etc. There are many local Japanese fashion and clothing brands here too. There were many choices on display racks. It's a matter of preferences and not fussy buying seasoned bags, shoes or clothing store. Store sales assistants were all ever willing to help and provide good service at all stores. The food court was big and always on full house with delicious food but price wise was on a high side just like eating in a restaurant in Osaka city

Apparently not many people visited this outlet.. i guess because the price are not that cheap. I was kind of disappointed since we came all the way from osaka. Not recommended at all. The worst part of this place is the Michael Kors outlet. I was wearing a MK handbag and when i walked in the shop, the sales lady keeps asking about my bag and she kees saying that it's a cheap version of the brand. I felt really insulted and of course i walked out without buying anything. I have never been treated like that anywhere.. what a jerk!!

The Kobe Sanda Premium Outlet mall is quite easily assessable. There is a shuttle bus on hourly basis, from Sannomiya station or the Shin Kobe station, costs only ¥660 per person each way. It takes just under 40 mins.
If you have been to other premium Malls in Japan, it is about the same, the look and feel are consistent, like walking in the Gotemba on in Tokyo, the Chitose one in Sapporo, the Rinku town one in Osaka and the Prince Shopping Outlet Mall in Karuizawa.
You can get good bargains from brands like Oakley (which surprisingly offered 20% discount on most models), but designs and Colours may be limited though. There are also the usual ones like Gucci, Armani, Prada, Bally, Michael Kors, and Coach. It was Coach that offered the 50% discount and an additional 30%.
There is also a food court within the compound if you are hungry. Otherwise you can just cross a link bridge to bring you to Aeon Mall.
Ultimately, it is a shopper's paradise, so bring your cards !

It's located in the Sanda in the morning. I took a JR fukuchiyama rapid train from Osaka to Sanda station for 40 mins and then took a bus which run directly to the outlet. Before the outlet, it stopped at Aeon Mall, quite an interesting place to visit if you have time.
The outlet is full of many shops and all of them sell good deals of goods. There are Levi's, Anna Sui, Nike, Adidas, Gaps and even Lindt. The price is greatly discounted and it's not old-fashioned. It's like the previous season goods so you still can wear fashionable clothes in a good sale price. I got a skinny jeans from Gaps for only 900 yen.
You should come visit here and spend some time maybe it takes nearly a day as there are so many many shops. Also high end brands are here such as Gucci, Celine, Yves Saint and Coach.
Don't forget to try Lindt chocolate shake, it's really delicious!

Kobe Sanda Premium Outlets shows why Sanda is one of the world's top 4 cities: London, Paris, New York, and of course, Sanda. They have UniQlo, which is great for buying very fashionable clothes, and a music shop where I can buy strings for the guitar that I am unable to play. There are a number of different reaturants, including Chinese, Japanese, and manyother kinds of foods. There is also an Aeon supermarket where you can buy your groceries, too. The outlet has many famous brands, such as Paul Mith, which si one of my favourites. Also, why not enjoy a Starbucks coffee when you visit?!

The place is huge but unfortunately, the shops are not so attractive compared to others that I have been to....like La Village, Paris. Even the prices are almost the same as in Malaysia. I prefer Johor Premium Outlet better that here in Kobe Sanda....not only that the place is too far from town, you need to catch a bus to go there....

Written October 12, 2015
You can check how to access there by visiting the Kobe Sanda Premium Outlet website, go under the direction&transportation button and choose bus or car.
It's quite pricey to get there but if you really plan to do the shopping then it might be worth your trip. Many great goods are there with an affordable price. Hope this help.
