Zafiro Mallorca

Stuart Evans

We recently stayed at Zafiro Mallorca in Can Picafort and had an excellent experience from start to finish. The hotel strikes the perfect balance between being family-friendly and offering peaceful areas for adults, with thoughtful touches throughout that made our holiday feel effortless and enjoyable. From the moment we arrived, the reception team made us feel so welcome after a long journey. Their warmth and attentiveness went above and beyond, even upgrading us to a pool-view room. They were equally fantastic with the children, helping them feel at home straight away. The hotel grounds are beautifully manicured and immaculately maintained, with cleaning taking place daily. Everything felt fresh, tidy, and cared for, which really added to the overall atmosphere. Meal times were a pleasant surprise – none of the overcrowding or noise you sometimes find at resorts. Both lunch and dinner offered a varied choice of dishes, with excellent quality across the board. A nice touch was seeing senior management and entertainment staff dining in the restaurant with guests, showing real trust in the food standards. The pool areas were outstanding. The main pool was shallow in most areas, perfect for children to play safely under the watchful eye of multiple lifeguards who kept everything in good order. Meanwhile, the adults-only pool was absolute bliss – peaceful, relaxing, and well-managed, with children politely redirected elsewhere when needed. One of the real standouts was how the sunbeds were managed. From 8am to 10am, the general manager and his team ensured that towels weren’t left to reserve beds unnecessarily. He personally came down in the mornings, removing towels, chatting politely with early risers, and setting the tone for fair use of facilities. This proactive approach made a big difference. The poolside bar at lunchtime was another highlight. While there were naturally some queues, the bar staff worked incredibly hard, constantly moving through orders with energy and ensuring no one waited more than a minute or two for a drink. Their efficiency and friendly service didn’t go unnoticed. The staff at Zafiro Mallorca truly stood out. Every member of the team was polite, friendly, and always ready with a smile or a greeting. Many took the time to engage in genuine conversations, which added a personal touch to our stay. Even during the busiest times, when they were clearly rushed off their feet, they continued to deliver excellent service with professionalism and warmth. Their hard work and dedication didn’t go unnoticed and really enhanced the overall experience. Overall, Zafiro Mallorca exceeded our expectations. From excellent customer service and spotless grounds to well-managed facilities and thoughtful details, the hotel truly prioritises guest experience. We left feeling relaxed, looked after, and already planning a return.

This place really is lovely. Clean rooms, brilliant staff, more than enough pools and loungers and you're a few minutes from the beach at Can Picafort. But the best thing by far is the relaxed atmosphere, and it never feels crowded. Mealtimes at these kinds of places can often feel like a frenzied free for all, but here it never gets too busy so dining is far more relaxing. No young children so I can't speak for how well it caters for families with kids, but thry certainly have enough pools! Only been here a couple of days but I already know I'd be looking to come back again.

I had such a lovely experience at the spa during our holiday! My 6 year old daughter and I had a manicure together, and it was such a special moment. Daniele M was absolutely wonderful! so kind and gentle with my daughter, and she made the experience really fun and relaxed for both of us. Later in the day, I treated myself to a full body massage, and honestly it was incredible. One of the best I’ve ever had! I left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed. Thank you for such a memorable and rejuvenating experience we’ll definitely be back!

I recently spent a couple of nights here with my family and we had a great experience. We booked the family suite and the all inclusive package. Check in was smooth and the rooms were ready early so we could get started at the pools. There’s a perfect small kids pool area with slides and shallow water for the toddlers to play in. There are several other pool areas for bigger kids and adults. There’s even a 18+ pool in a separate area if you’re able to enjoy that. I thought the breakfast, lunches, dinners, and drinks were great! We had tons of options at every meal. We could even find things for a bunch of picky kids to eat in between them attacking the ice cream machines! Coffee was from automatic machines but it was surprisingly good. The room was very nice with an outdoor seating area and rack to dry clothes/towels. The bathroom was massive with a walk in shower and separate tub. There was a full kitchen with sink/stove/mini fridge. The A/C worked, but luckily the weather was nice in mid June so we didn’t need it much. You’re a ~10 minute walk down to the beach and there is a beach store/restaurants down there if you’re interested in getting out of the resort for a bit. All in all I would recommend this resort and I would stay again!

We booked a penthouse suite with a plunge pool at Zafiro Mallorca. The room was large and clean and our rooftop was huge! We had a bath, separate open walk in shower and toilet in a room with a door (not clear from photos on the websites) and the sink was separate outside the room. The plunge pool is not heated which meant it was cold on arrival but as the weather heated up over the week, it was much warmer. Food was as expected for an all inclusive at the buffet restaurant, a good selection of food with the usual children's options. The restaurant/bar by the pool has a good menu and cooks food to order at lunchtime and this was excellent. The pools were clean and every morning the cleaners washed the tiles around the sunbeds to ensure it was perfect. They also cleaned the pools every morning with nets ready for the day. The managers came out on a morning to ensure the sunbeds were not reserved and removed any towels that were left unattended. It is a shame this wasn't repeated through the day as it was very hard to get a sunbed after going out on a morning, but luckily, we had the rooftop sunbeds. Evening entertainment was hit and miss. Some acts were amazing, others were awful, again pretty standard for an all inclusive. The reception staff were lovely as were all the bar staff, waiters and entertainment team. The maids always spoke when passing and the staff all seem happy and approachable. Our son was too old for the mini club but the mini disco was good and had very enthusiastic staff! Location wise, the hotel is about a ten minute walk from the beach and shops. Perfect location. Mobility wise, the hotel is pretty much level, just a couple of stairs after reception, but there were more disabled friendly routes you could use if needed. The walk to the beach is slightly downhill and uphill coming back but not steep. We did dine out a few times in Can Picafort to vary our meals a bit and for a main and a round of drinks, this cost around 60-70 euros for three of us. We think the hotel deserves its 4 star rating. It really is a beautiful hotel with wonderful staff.
