Restaurants and Bars
Food is a real strong point at Zafiro Bahia, especially if you opt for All Inclusive Plus.
Caprice Buffet Restaurant is the main hub, serving varied buffet-style breakfast, lunch and dinner with live show-cooking stations, themed evenings (Majorcan, Latino, Mediterranean and Oriental) and regular “special” dinners featuring seafood, Spanish tapas and more.
Mirablau Beach Bar sits by the pool and beachfront, offering à la carte dishes and snacks with Mediterranean, Italian, Spanish and local flavours – ideal for casual lunches or relaxed dinners with a sea breeze.
Bar El Patio is your go-to for coffee, drinks and a pre- or post-dinner tipple on the terrace.
All Inclusive Plus typically includes buffet meals, snacks between set times, one à la carte dinner per week at El Patio with reservation, and selected international and local alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks (including cocktails and soft drinks) until 23:00. A smart casual dress code may apply in the restaurants, and openings can vary by occupancy and season.
Pool Areas and Beach
The pool scene at Zafiro Bahia is tailormade for both splash-filled days and lazy afternoons.
Outdoors you’ll find three freshwater pools, including:
– A large main pool with sunbathing terraces, Balinese beds and parasols

The colourful splash park ups the fun factor with a tipping water bucket, jets, sprinklers, water cannons and a water dome, usually open from late March to early November during daytime hours.
Indoors there are two heated pools: one general-use and one adults-only at the spa, ideal in cooler months or as an escape from the midday sun. Pool towels are provided free of charge.
Step beyond the hotel’s edge and you’re straight onto Playa De Muro beach, a long stretch of fine sand and shallow, usually calm water that’s perfect for paddling children and sunset walks.
