The colors of the buildings, the reflections on the water, and the way people move through the space all come together in a way that feels lively and full of energy. I noticed right away that there were a lot of teenagers there, and seeing them taking pictures, laughing with their friends, and exploring the shops made the entire place feel even more youthful and exciting. It is the kind of environment where teenagers can be themselves without feeling judged or rushed, and that adds so much to the overall vibe. One thing I really appreciated was how easy it was to enjoy the scenery without needing to spend money. The marina, the boats, the open walkways, and the bright storefronts all felt like natural photo spots. Teenagers were stopping every few steps to take pictures, and it made perfect sense because the whole place looks like it was made for fun moments. The scenery almost feels animated in a way, not because it looks fake, but because the colors and shapes are so bold and cheerful that they stand out in a really playful way. It reminded me of how the props at Funko Hollywood looked so perfect for photos even though they were just meant for fun. Ventura Harbor Village has that same kind of charm where the environment itself becomes part of the entertainment. I also loved how calm and unhurried everything felt. Even with a lot of people around, including groups of teenagers moving from shop to shop, the space never felt crowded or overwhelming. There is something about being near the water that makes the whole experience feel slower and more peaceful. I could take my time walking, looking around, and enjoying the moment without feeling like I needed to rush to the next thing. The sounds of the water, the smell of food from the restaurants, and the warm sunlight all blended together in a way that made the visit feel really refreshing. I have only visited Ventura Harbor Village once before writing this review, but it left a strong impression on me because of how enjoyable and welcoming it felt. It is honestly one of the most playful outdoor places I have been to in a long time, especially because of how many teenagers clearly loved being there. Watching them take pictures, enjoy the scenery, and just have fun made me realize how perfect this location is for them. I would highly recommend that teenagers visit Ventura Harbor Village because it gives them a place to be creative, take fun photos, enjoy the water, and feel free in a positive and uplifting environment. I have lived for 24 years, but I am not physically or mentally 24 years old. In the summertime of 2024, I learned that I am still physically and mentally 18 years old, and I also learned that my prefrontal cortex is far more developed than the average 25 year old. Maybe that is why places like this feel so natural and energizing to me. They match the way I experience the world, with that mix of youthfulness, clarity, and excitement. Ventura Harbor Village fits perfectly into that feeling, and it is a place I would gladly return to because of how much joy it brings to people, especially teenagers who want a fun and welcoming place to spend time.

It's free ... less convenient .. yes! I am at The collection multiple times a week and it's a great addition to Oxnard. So many things to do and I love how clean it's kept. There are different happy hours at different shops. I think you can find affordable or more fine dining options as well. There's something for everyone! Oh and so many events. Not sure I'd be back for The Christmas tree lighting though because it was a madhouse.. it was cool to see though. There's just way too many people. I haven't had a bad experience. Staff at the multiple establishments are nice. There's plenty of charging stations for those with electric vehicles too.

With nothing really planned today, we took the scenic drive from SCV to Oxnard to finally explore this outdoor mall and have lunch. Very well-maintained and thoughtfully designed, it turned out to be a great experience! There's a good number of stores of different sizes to shop and browse, Target, Century Theaters, Bowlero, park/playground, community areas with games, restaurants and food court. After our lunch we decided to sit at the park area to enjoy the cool cloudy day while watching kids roll around in the grass, people with their dogs and families engaging with each other. After that and some shopping, we ended up spending more time that we expected to. There's more than enough parking all around the mall and in the Target structure. We plan on visiting more often.

Although those days are long gone, and many of the stores that made it "premium" are no longer here, it's better than most. There are still some good deals. It's also fairly large so you'll spend a decent amount of time walking through every section. We're usually shopping for something specific -- today it's jeans for the husband. But we always end up with more than planned. :) We browsed through many of the stores, spending much of our time at Lucky Brand, Levi's, Lululemon, adidas, The North Face and Ralph Lauren. We got the best deal on jeans at Levi's and surprisingly found a nice lightweight sweater for him at Lululemon. We like to grab a light snack or drink treat while we shop. Wetzel's Pretzels is a favorite but today we discovered that Boba Time has joined the outlets! Overall, it was a really nice day. I realized when we left that I missed going to Pottery Barn! We'll need to start on that side next time.

JOE'S JEANS & SEVEN FOR ALL MANKIND ARE GONE!…read more I'm really disappointed because I drove down to Camarillo from Santa Barbara to go to Joes jeans and Seven jeans specifically. And yes, I checked the outlet website before I left for hours and it appeared that both stores were active and open. When I arrived, Joes was simply gone. I went over to the kiosk map to check and it was still listed in its usual location. But it had been replaced by another store, Reformation, I believe. An employee of the outlets walked by and said I looked confused and told me the map hadn't been updated in a minute. Disappointed, I then went over to Seven, which was also gone! Replaced by Fabletics, I think. The point is that Joes and Seven are still listed on the outlet website and they are still listed in the on-site kiosks as active stores. Not only am I disappointed that a few of my favorite stores are just gone like that, but I'm especially disappointed at the glaring lack of communication that lead to an entire afternoon being wasted. The outlets otherwise appear to be going down hill. I don't think I'll be back after this.

During my most recent getaway trip to Ventura, I made two visits.....the first visit, I found a woven straw fedora-trilby, the Circa 1921, to top off an olive-green Hawaiian shirt I purchased from a different store just a short time earlier. The second visit, I got a pecan-brown Scala Outback Hat. Both Amberlee and Jenny were such a great help; they are real assets to your store. Thank you, Amberlee, Jenny and the Wharf!!! See you on the next go-around!!

When I entered, the young lady at the registered welcomed me. I couldn't find the bag I was looking for because I didn't know what the bag looked like since it's a different brand than I am used to. I asked a young man that was loading shelves and he called for someone to come help me. Another gentleman came and helped me within a minute. They did have quite a large Oxbow small animal pet products more than I have seen at Tractor Supply. So, even though I probably won't be back for these pellet bedding bags when TSS opens; I would come back for all the rabbit chew toys and supplies they have. I was checked out quickly and on my way.

Mostly I see it's all Costco brand. Clothes are all new, if you are patient to look for your size you are guaranteed a great deal ( usually 50%off or more). They also have. Anne's and boxed goods. All the prices are marked with a sharpie so you know exactly how much everything is, if it doesn't, you asked them, I've tried haggling to no avail. However they usually just round out the price to your benefit. I've gotten a coat for $30, tennis shoes for my son $20 and books for a $1. Just sucks that's only cash accepted, so if you went bananas and bought more than you thought, then you're SOL. So minus one star for the inconvenience.

My watches have always been gifts, But I always told myself when I finally buy my own watch, this is where I'm going. That happened yesterday. I brought a couple of my watches in for batteries and band replacements and started looking around. There's a lot to choose from including Bulova, Citizen, Hamilton, Fossil, Timex, etc just to name a few. I focused on a Bulova. I wasn't sure of what diameter, Although I had an idea because my wrists are a little small. There are several sizes to choose from, I tried on a few to get the feel for them and find the size that worked for me. They were super helpful and accommodating and patient with my fickleness. We finally settled on a beautiful one with a nice burgundy colored face that fit my wrist size perfectly! The price was great, and the band adjustment was quick and efficient and the watch was super affordable, and I can't even tell you how happy I was with the experience when I was driving home and I couldn't stop looking at my watch! Hahaha! Thanks again for everything folks! Walter Wynn Ojai
