Zahir country house is set in a beautiful garden setting with a very large infinity pool. A calm and beautiful retreat in the nature.
What we liked:
The Beautiful gardens, the very large and stylish swimming pool, the sitting and lounging areas around the pool and garden, the very friendly staff, who really go out of their way to help, the modern design of rooms and common areas, the free ample parking (in the shade below solar panels), the closeness to Noto, the beaches of the Vendicari nature reserve, the romantic lighting at night, the breakfast (once you know what you can order), the freshly cooked light lunches.
What could be improved:
Breakfast at first looks simple however there are loads of yummy items available on request, you just have to ask for them.
Photos of the rooms should be updated as eg the suite now has a mezzanine, which is important to know if you have kids.
There was some confusing communication with staff about whether it would be possible to have dinner, the final answer is: not in the resort but in a nice neighbouring restaurant.
Some of the building work/landscaping needs to be completed around the new car park and the suite which was extended by private accommodation. Once that’s done, it will be beautiful also in that area.
