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.
