About Mae Terra

‘Mae Terra’ literally means to personify Mother Earth, and this 121-year old restored Portuguese style premium luxury villa nestled in the mangrove forests of Southern Goa is no less of a heavenly abode formed by Mother Earth’s magic. The private villa stands 60 feet atop a mountain surrounded by Dr. Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary, while the waters of the Mandovi River lace the land, forming Chorao Island. It’s a spectacle worth adding to every tourist’s itinerary. The private villa with swimming pool in Goa is adorned by Bangalore based architects’ signature thatched roof and has a unique, incredible design that gives a feeling of living ‘inside out’. The large open spaces, aesthetic living areas, open sky showers, and attic bedrooms opening to their own private gardens leave you with a feeling of living in a lavishly made film, like a long-lost dream coming to life.
