I came here mainly for the SPA. I suggest to book the SPA in the morning during weekdays, since it will be very likely to be the only one guests there (and then they may allow you to stay more than only 1 hour and half! It was great!).
The SPA is not so big, it has a cap on the number of allowed guests fixed to 6. I did not like the "emotional shower", but the rest was pretty good, particularly the hot pool.
They also have a restaurant and a bigger waterpool outside. Discounts are provided if you are guests in this structure or in "Ramo D'aria", which is another country House at 1 km from Zash. Very kind staff, I will definitely come back again.
Un country hotel immerso nella tranquillità di un verde agrumeto con un personale professionale e sempre attento alle esigenze del cliente. Le camere sono pulite e spaziose e si puó usare una veloce connessione WiFi. Molto belli la spa e il ristorante diretto dal bravo chef Giuseppe Raciti situato all'interno di un vecchio palmento.
Fantasica location
Personale accogliente, struttura che richiama le tradizioni immersa nel verde e SPA davvero carina e bagni e ambiente pulito.
Unica pecca , i binari attorno la struttura con treno che disturba quando passa.
Quando si entra da Zash ci si aspetta un'atmosfera d'altri tempi con profumo e aromi da riscopriree l'aspettativa non viene per nulla felusa anzi.
La location è elegante e suggestiva, ricavata da un antico palmento che è stato arredato in stile moderno ma senza intaccare la bellezza delle mura originali.
In servizio in sala è all'altezza dei più blasonati stellati ma il maitre Giuseppe e la sua sqiadra riescono a farti sentire come fossi a casa loro. La cucina dello Chef Giuseppe e il team della cucina poi è un viaggio nei sapori siciliani. La maestria nell'utilizzare i prodotti locali e l'eleganza dei piatti ti fa capire quanta ricerca e passione ci sia dietro ognuno di essi.
Se vi trovare vicino Giarre (ma anche se dovete andarci apposta) non potete perdervi Zash.
Unfortunately Zash, as a hotel/accommodation experience, has a lot it really needs to improve. The rooms have a lot of rough edges. We stayed in the Green Room, by the pool, and found the following:
- The hot water takes a long time and has very low pressure.
- The normal shower head has no overhead mount and the rain show is so clogged with minerals from the water that it's more of a mist than a shower.
- The toilet smells quite bad, there is poor sewage extraction.
- The silicone sealant in the bathroom is really poorly done, going moldy in parts and and peeling or melting off in others.
- There is very poor light in the bathroom.
- Noise from the bathroom is very clear in the bedroom, which can detract from a romantic experience.
- There was a lot of noise from an animal running around inside or on top of the roof of our room all night.
- There were water rats in the toilets by the pool (next to our room), which isn't uncommon for the country but preventable through poisons and better plumbing.
- The bed base is chipped and scratched.
- The air conditioner is dusty and old, it should be better hidden.
With the service:
- they had forgotten about the extras we had booked, dinner and massages
- there was heavy rain and the polished concrete paths become extremely dangerous
Unfortunate to put this last, but the food experience was excellent. The chef did a great job with the preparation and presentation, and the wine pairing.
