What makes a hotel really exceptional? What are the things that really make a difference today? What makes it the best hotel in the world? All of us at Zafiro Hotels are totally convinced that what makes a hotel really special is the experience it provides for guests. For us, luxury is about sharing extraordinary experiences with the people that we most cherish. Enjoy unforgettable moments in exceptional settings, accompanied by attentive service, a first-class team, and a genuine connection to the destination.
This very philosophy has earned all the hotels in the Zafiro Palace Collection—Zafiro Palace Andratx, Zafiro Palace Palmanova, and Zafiro Palace Alcudia—a nomination in the Best Resort category of the Condé Nast Traveller Readers' Choice Awards 2025, in both the UK and US editions.
And as a remarkable milestone for Zafiro, Son Sabater by Zafiro, our very first agrotourism hotel and a true gem within our Zafiro Boutique Collection, has secured a nomination as Best Hotel in the UK edition of these prestigious awards.
Read on to see how you can show your support for the team behind Zafiro Hotels—the people who bring excellence to life every day.
