Zafiro Palace Palmanova

Fantastic Resort with great facilities Really enjoyed the meals, excellent quality and variety of food.

We stayed in Zafiro Palace Palmanova, for the 2nd time, May 2024. The place is amazing and the staff can’t do enough to help. We originally booked B&B, but after seeing the standard of local food and trying the in-house restaurants, immediately upgraded. No regrets! The good is first class. Thank you Zafiro for another amazing holiday. See you again soon

I couldn’t fault the hotel at all. Food was excellent and I’m alittle fussy. All staff were exceptional and couldn’t help you more. Loved having the Jacuzzi. Will be booking again.

Would recommend for family trip, a lot of kids, fun, very good quality in general. There playgrounds in the hotel and about 5-6 playgrounds near the hotel, walking around is also good

The food in the hotel restaurants was nice the lunch time pool bar was not that nice other than that lovely

Pool freezing- too cold for kids One bar open- terrible took ages to get a drink I would bother No entertainment by the pool Rooms lovely and staff friendly But nothing special Also very little entertainment

The variety of the buffet was pretty bad in comparison to most 5 star hotels I have been. The quality of the food was also terrible and tasteless. The gym smelt super strong of mould. The service was okay but not 5 star level. The facilities were starting to look knackered.

We had an amazing 10 days here in July 2024. The facilities were very clean and well maintained, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The pool area was spacious, and we loved the adults only terrace. The food was amazing and we can’t wait to be back there in June 2024

We stayed at the Zafiro from 3-10th May this year. Check in was amazingly efficient and the hotel foyer exudes 5 *. We had a Junior suite with one of the private plunge pools leading into a narrow shared pool area. The first few days were peaceful however then some families were allocated to our block (block 1) which made the experience less peaceful. We also had people from block 2 throwing a very hard ball over constantly from their narrow pool area. The ball landed on our private area several times which was annoying. The guys then decided to use our narrow pool to extend their ball throwing reach but were politely asked not to do that as we couldn't swim there while they were doing this. So for us as a couple, the junior suite was not as peaceful as we would like, but if you are a family these suites are a great way to keep an eye on your family while they are in the pool with a depth of 1.2M. and gates to stop the little ones going in without you. Plenty of sunbathing space outside the suite, however on block 1 after 3 pm you need to move across to the other side of the pool if you want the sun. If you are going with JET2, you need to be prepared to wait in a very long line (over 300 people) to be allocated to your coach for onward travel to the hotel when you arrive. We decided not to wait for this and paid for our own onward travel via taxi. Our return was much more simple and our coach collected us on time and only had a couple of stops to collect guests before going to the airport. We stayed on a B & B basis as we know the area very well and wanted to visit some of our favourite restaurants. The buffet style on offer was fantastic with everything from juices, freshly made omelettes, pancakes to a full English offering. Coffee from the machine was good, but the coffee in jugs which you can order to your table not so good and was probably made very early so luke warm. Just to warn those of you who who prefer some privacy in the bathroom......there really isnt any. The bathroom is an open area, with glass doors to the toilet and the shower cubicles but there is no door.....it is open and if you get up in the night and switch the light on, it illuminates the whole bedroom. There is also a bath but again this is in the open area with a large glass window straight into the sleeping area. Personally we would have preferred some doors into the bathroom area to give some privacy. We will be trying the new Fergus Adults only next time.
