 Hotel description

Extensively renovated in 2017, the hotel retains the typical ZAFIRO style: bright, chic, modern, and stylish. The hotel complex consists of a four-story main building and four apartment buildings, each with four floors. All of this is beautifully set within a 5,000 ^m² garden .

Instead of "normal" double rooms, ZAFIRO Palmanova offers only apartments. 198 apartments feature a lounge, a bedroom, a terrace, and a kitchenette. This makes them ideal for families or tennis players who want to share a larger space. The sofa bed in the lounge sleeps two, so four people can comfortably stay in the apartment. You can choose from 41m² ^double apartments, swim-up apartments (70m² ⁾ with a private terrace and direct access to the swim-up pool, or treat yourself to a 75m² ^Royal Apartment or a Royal Apartment with a private Jacuzzi and panoramic views. True to the ZAFIRO style, all rooms are bright, modern, and elegantly furnished. The bathrooms are top-notch – all with walk-in showers. The kitchenettes include a coffee machine, kettle, microwave, refrigerator, toaster, dishes, and a small sink.

Several pools are spread throughout the hotel grounds : a main pool in the heart of the complex, a fun pool with a "Wet Bubble" water slide, and a children's pool with a pirate ship. Those seeking a more tranquil experience can relax by the Oasis Pool – accessible only to those 18 and older. Around the various pools, you'll find sun loungers, parasols, and beautiful Balinese-style loungers.

The nearest beach, Platja de Son Maties, is just 200 meters away – a stone's throw.

For children there is a playground with slides, a bouncy castle, mini golf and children's and youth entertainment (during peak season).

The Academy's large and loyal clientele at all tennis levels speaks volumes.

You can play at the Magaluf Tennis Club, just a 5-minute walk from the hotel. There you'll find 6 well-maintained clay courts , changing rooms with showers, a restaurant, a shop, and a 24-hour racket stringing service.
