Each accommodation provides comfort, privacy, and stunning views of the surrounding landscape. Some villas come with private pools and fireplaces, making them ideal for both romantic getaways and family escapes.
Wine is at the heart of the Zornitza experience. The estate’s boutique winery produces premium wines that can be enjoyed during private tastings and paired with gourmet cuisine at the estate’s fine dining restaurant, a proud member of Relais & Châteaux. The restaurant emphasizes farm-to-table ingredients, many sourced directly from the estate’s own organic garden.
For relaxation, guests can immerse themselves in the ZOMA Spa, which offers a variety of treatments, mineral pools, and a serene atmosphere inspired by the region’s natural resources. Outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and exploring the nearby cultural landmarks, including the famous Melnik Pyramids and historic monasteries, add to the estate’s appeal.
