Reasons why you should book your Mallorca hotel near the beach
We know it can sometimes be difficult to choose a hotel. The area, nearby services, proximity to the main tourist attractions, distance to the beach... There are always many factors to consider before you make that final decision, and especially in a destination like Mallorca where the offer is huge and of such high quality. But if you feel proximity to the beach is a must, we'll give you a series of clues in this post that will help you make the best hotel choice depending on what kind of holiday you’re looking forward to.

There are endless reasons why you should choose a luxury hotel on Mallorca near the beach, enjoying a relaxing holiday on the island.
The location of your hotel on Mallorca can – really – make a difference. It's not the same staying in a hotel in the middle of the island's capital as it is staying somewhere along the Sierra de Tramuntana mountain chain, or by the sea. So, if your intention is to enjoy the Mediterranean Sea, don't hesitate: always go for a hotel near the beach.
Comfort for the entire family
Having the beach nearby is a pleasure for all your senses. Besides, hotels near the sea not only have all the advantages of a hotel of the highest category, but also give you the ease of having everything just a few steps from your room.
This advantage becomes really important if you're planning a holiday on Mallorca with your family, since the beach is one of the best places to spend quality time with the kids, right there, safe and calm in the middle of nature.
Our luxury hotel in Palmanova, the Zafiro Palace Palmanova, is the perfect choice if you want to enjoy all the comforts of a great hotel and be very near the beach. It's located a mere 5 minutes' walk from the best beaches in Palmanova with blue flag, calm waters, and large expanses of sand. It's a pleasant walk here as well: on your way to the beach there are supermarkets, bars, restaurants, ice-cream parlours, shops and much more. So easy, with everything within walking distance!
Water activities and sports
The temperature of the Mediterranean Sea, its scarce waves and crystal-clear water make the Mallorcan beaches an ideal setting for all kinds of water sports, even if you're not an expert.
The kayaking routes along the Mallorcan coastline or catamaran excursions are other fun activities to be found just steps from your hotel. If you're keen on adding a bit of adrenaline to the whole experience, we recommend you try a water sport such as kite or paddle surfing, or scuba diving. If you think this sounds interesting, we'd recommend a stay at our luxury hotel in Puerto de Alcudia, Zafiro Palace Alcúdia, located 200 metres from the beach in Alcudia, in the north of the island. The area is known for its natural areas and beaches, ideal for these activities.
We’d also like to remind you that we have a Flight + Hotel section where you can book your activities and excursions, so you can enjoy your visit to the island even more.
Waking up with sea views
The third reason is our favourite. Imagine waking up and watching the sun rise over the Mediterranean, bringing a delicate breeze. And, in the evenings this dream room, the penthouse with private plunge pool at the Zafiro Palace Andratx, will allow you to experience the most beautiful sunsets on Mallorca. Watching the sun set over the iconic beach Camp de Mar from the privacy of your own terrace will be an unforgettable memory from your stay.
As you can see, staying near the sea brings a lot of advantages and lets you delight in an authentic 5-star holiday by the sea. If you haven't booked your next getaway yet, we invite you to discover everything that a Zafiro Palace experience would entail, and to book it at the best price taking advantage of our hotel offers on Mallorca.
