The sun-kissed seaside island of Mallorca is catching the eye of discerning travelers worldwide as one of the latest luxury travel destinations. The island’s recent revival can be attributed to several new five-star properties and 11 Michelin-star restaurants leading the island’s hospitality transformation, complemented by a dramatic landscape with more than 200 magnificent beaches, a UNESCO World Heritage mountain range, and cultural sites dating back to the 13th century. Following the debut of a new direct flight from JFK via United, Mallorca is more accessible than ever. In 2023, a record number of superyachts anchored in its waters.
For those looking for a luxurious stay complimented by five-star hospitality, Zafiro Palace Andratx is a newly opened, family-owned five-star retreat surrounded by sweeping 360-degree views of the Sierra de Tramuntana mountain range overlooking the shimmering turquoise sea. The striking all-suite resort is built around the contours of a towering mountain, with a unique horizontal architectural design that capitalizes on outdoor spaces. Five restaurants, a trio of garden and skyscape infinity pools surrounded by nature plus two indoor pools, a luxurious spa and wellness center, and bespoke amenities bring the splendor of the island into the grounds of the hotel. A new all-inclusive option caters to luxury travelers seeking exclusivity and authentic experiences.
Luxury accommodations: Zafiro Palace Andratx’s 304 generously sized suites are resplendent in authentic Mallorcan character and adorned with locally sourced décor, including artwork from female-owned ABA ART.
