Bucket list for 2025
It’s gradually becoming more and more difficult to find really unique and special experiences. Although it seems we’ve got more options than ever before to choose from, it’s also true that we have so many things that surprising someone with something really, really memorable is almost a miracle. That's why Zafiro Hotels would like to offer a bit of inspiration to help you create new experiences for the new year that will become memories that last a lifetime.
Below are a few experiences that we think would remain forever in your memory as moments of genuine happiness. Because what’s really important is not so much “what” you enjoy, but “how” you enjoy it.
From delicious dinners under the stars to serene holiday breaks, here are 4 Zafiro Hotels experiences that we think you should not be missing in the new year. Be inspired, dare to dream and start taking notes...

Experience for foodies
A culinary journey at the Zafiro Palace Andratx
If fine dining is what you really love, just imagine this! The murmur of the sea in the background, a gentle Mediterranean breeze caressing your skin, and a perfectly prepared table at which you are about to enjoy some of the finest flavours in the world. The team at the Zafiro Palace Andratx take their passion for fine dining extremely seriously, and have pledged to make every dinner an extraordinary sensory experience.
Five restaurants, five culinary journeys
During your stay you’ll embark on a journey through a world of sensational flavours designed to surprise and amaze you. From the authenticity of the Mediterranean at The Market Restaurant, with a wide range of rice dishes and tapas, to the unforgettable aroma of grilled meat at the Caliu Steakhouse. Don't miss the fusion of Japanese and Peruvian cuisine at Tastes & Sushi or the most refined Italian dishes at La Veranda, particularly the slow-cooked lasagna. And for those who really know how to appreciate something that is truly special, we invite you to savour the haute cuisine on offer at the Mare Nostrum Signature Cuisine, destined to become one of the most memorable experiences of your stay.
- Our top tip: The Market Restaurant terrace at sunset. Your favourite dish with a glass of chilled white wine as you admire the sun setting over the Mediterranean.
- Our recommendation: make a reservation for dinner at Mare Nostrum and don’t miss the desserts. You’ll only need one small bite to understand why we say this.
Anti-stress experience
Total disconnection at Son Sabater by Zafiro
The best way to combat stress. Press pause, turn off the alarm on your phone, and spend a long weekend in the heart of the countryside. If a quiet getaway is on your bucket list this year, then Son Sabater by Zafiro is the perfect choice. This hidden treasure in rural Mallorca is an ideal place to enjoy the luxury of simplicity in a magnificent natural environment protected by the Sierra de Tramuntana mountains, a World Heritage Site.
Located in a 16th century Mallorcan country estate, you’ll find yourself far from the madding crowds. Waking up to the sound of the birds singing, enjoying breakfast on the terrace surrounded by holm oak trees and spending a few hours reading your book or relaxing in the spa.
- Our top tip: a walk at sundown around the hotel's holm oak forest. The last light of the day filters down through the trees to create an image that soothes the soul.
- Our recommendation: book one of the private villas, enjoy a relaxing massage at the spa, and end the day with dinner in the hotel's outdoor gazebo.
The most exclusive experience
Zafiro Club: an experience beyond the extraordinary
This is the ideal experience for anyone who knows how to truly appreciate and enjoy the good things in life. If you’re fond of your pleasures and luxury living, Zafiro Club is for you. This extraordinary service is only available at the Zafiro Palace Andratx and Zafiro Palace Palmanova, and has been designed for travellers seeking just that little bit more. More privacy. More rest. More details that make all the difference.
If you choose Zafiro Club, you’ll enjoy the most luxurious suites in the hotel, with access to a private pool and bar, and personalised concierge services to help you arrange fantastic experiences and enjoy Mallorca without any limits. Every day you’ll also find little details in your suite such as fresh flowers or artisan chocolates, and you can also enjoy a massage for two people during your stay and a late check-out so you can enjoy every last second.
- Our top tip: the experience at the Zafiro Palace Andratx, where the suites with a private pool make you feel as if you were in your own private oasis of peace.
- Our recommendation: book a stay for 2025 at the Zafiro Palace Palmanova to become one of the first visitors to try an amazing experience that will forever change your idea of what a great holiday should be.
An experience for you
An adults-only refuge at the Zafiro Alzinar Mar
Because sometimes what you really need is just a little more “me time”, with no greater responsibility than just being as happy as you can and pampering yourself as much as you want, for which the Zafiro Alzinar Mar in the lovely Mallorcan town of Can Picafort is ideal. The perfect place to make a total break with your routine and dedicate some time to yourself.
Located just three minutes from Playa de Muro, one of the most beautiful beaches in the whole of Europe, this adults-only hotel has been designed for travellers seeking an elegant and serene environment. 3,500m² of gardens, sun-drenched terraces and a spectacular outdoor pool create a Garden of Eden for anyone longing for a few days far away from the rat race.
- Our top tip: enjoy breakfast outdoors accompanied by the fresh aromas of the gardens, the beautiful light of a Mediterranean morning and the gentle sea breeze so reminiscent of summer.
- Our recommendation: if you’re a bit of a sports enthusiast, visit our gym and outdoor sports areas or rent a bike to explore some of the best cycling routes on the island.
