ArchitectureThe large tents, yurts and tipis stand on platforms in the middle of the valley. Francisco made all the wooden constructions and thatched roofs, as well as the large open-air pavilion, together with local craftsmen. All materials come from the region. Francisco and Claudia brought most of the tents, such as beds, bedside tables, chairs and mirrors, from their numerous trips to India, Vietnam, Thailand and Morocco. They also made sure that the furniture came from local and sustainable production.

FoodAterra has its own chef, who provides guests with delicacies on a daily basis: from breakfast with homemade bread, homemade jam, cold cuts, yoghurt and seasonal fruits, to lunch and dinner. Only fresh, mostly organically grown ingredients from the region and from our own vegetable and orchard are placed in the pots and plates. Most Mediterranean dishes are vegetarian, but if you like meat and fish, you don't have to do without them. There is a barbecue area and a pizza oven in the garden, which is fired with wood. There is also a bar in the dining lounge, which provides guests with drinks, smoothies and fresh juices. If you want, you can also order a filled picnic basket from the chef for your excursions.

EnvironmentFrancisco and Claudia tried to create a holiday destination in Aterra where the environment and resources are protected and protected in the best possible way: the electricity comes from renewable energies, a solar system on the property supplies the showers with warm water and there are compost toilets that are emptied and cleaned daily. The resulting compost is used the following year to enrich the soil and naturally fertilize the plants.

Well-BeingIn the Aterra, guests can attend yoga classes twice a day. In addition, the native Indian Utkarsh Vyas offers a wide variety of treatments and massages. He learned his craft at the Bodyology School of Massage in London. With the massages, Vyas wants to help restore the spirit and body of the guests with youthful energy. All massages are based on a combination of old and modern techniques and knowledge. The offer ranges from Indian head massages, stone massages, aromatherapy and Reiki healing to various Ayurveda treatments. Vyas is also happy to advise holidaymakers with his Ayurveda knowledge of healthy eating.
