The best trips go beyond the destination; they immerse us in its soul and make us feel at home. This is the approach that has led Maria and Antonia Plomer, the owners of Zafiro Hotels, to create a very personal guide to Mallorca, offering an intimate look at the island that shaped them.
This exclusive keepsake, filled with cherished memories and hidden gems, is a special gift from the Plomer sisters to Zafiro Club guests at the Zafiro Palace Andratx and Zafiro Palace Palmanova hotels.
“The best memories of our life will not be found in photos, they’re stored in our hearts", they say. With that in mind, they’ve curated their favourite must-visit spots and treasured places so every guest can experience Mallorca in a truly unforgettable way.

A journey to the heart of Mallorca
This guide is an invitation to explore the true essence of Mallorca — an island rich in stories, hidden gems, and unforgettable experiences. Far from being a conventional travel guide, this personal selection of places and experiences offers a deeper connection to Mallorca, allowing you to discover it like a local.
The guide is organised into different sections, each highlighting a special area of the island and its most authentic experiences.
- Palma: the capital of Mediterranean style
In the first part of the guide, Antonia and Maria Plomer invite you to take a leisurely stroll through Palma. Wander its cobbled streets, soak in the elegant atmosphere of Paseo del Borne, and explore the charming boutiques where they have chosen (and still choose) special gifts for their family and friends.
- Andratx, Puerto Portals and Port Adriano: discreet island luxury
The next section of the guide takes us to Andratx, a place that holds a special meaning for the owners of Zafiro Hotels. They share that it was the peacefulness of its coves and the breathtaking beauty of its surroundings that inspired the entire concept of Zafiro Palace Andratx.
- Serra de Tramuntana mountains, nature at its most sublime
In this section, the founders of Zafiro Hotels take us through their favourite trails in the Serra de Tramuntana mountains, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where mountains meet the Mediterranean in spectacular fashion. They share with us their favourite towns and villages and most fascinating sights and attractions.
- North of the island: childhood memories
The north of Mallorca is the closing and most special chapter of the guide. Why? Because this is where it all began — in the bay of Alcudia, where Antonia and Maria Plomer grew up, spending endless summers by the sea with their family.
A very personal gift
As part of a family with decades of dedication to hospitality and a deep-rooted Mediterranean spirit, Antonia and Maria Plomer created this guide to share their personal vision of Mallorca. Their goal is to connect with their guests and inspire them to explore the island beyond the usual routes, discovering its most authentic and special places.
Only with Zafiro Club
An attractive personal gift that every Zafiro Club guest staying at the Zafiro Palace Andratx or Zafiro Palace Palmanova will find waiting for them in their suite on their arrival.
This exclusive detail is just one of the many refined touches in the luxurious Zafiro Club suites, inviting guests to discover the most extraordinary corners of Mallorca's stunning beaches and majestic mountains.
