Set amidst the mountains in Coorg, this stunning villa is one of the most surreal spots, offering calming interiors, a floating pool at its centre, and panoramic views. Content creator Priyam Saraswat took to Instagram on April 12, 2026, to share the glimpses of this villa that offers luxury amidst nature at its best. Let’s take a closer look at the villa.

Inside the villa

Within Ayatana, a luxury nature resort, this villa is one of the recently launched projects that offers luxury to travellers amidst nature. In order to save the natural earth, all the structures in this villa are built on stilts. Surrounded by greenery all around, the property features minimalistic decor with calming interiors worth visiting for.

The highlight of the villa is its private floating pool built amidst trees and nature. The pool is designed with sharp linear geometry and vanishing edges that visually merge with the landscape. The water body acts as a reflective architectural element, amplifying openness and luxury while cooling the microclimate around the villa.

Into the bedrooms

The villa features two bedrooms, each with one master suite. The calming wooden and earthy interiors of the room makes it perfect for relaxation. The massive space inside the bedroom delights with a beautiful swing overlooking the mountains and views. The bathroom features an open shower space that looks surreal.

Decoding the architecture

This villa interior leans heavily into tropical modern architecture, where the design blurs indoor and outdoor living while maximising natural light, ventilation and landscape views. The central void creates a dramatic double-height atrium that visually connects different levels of the house. It allows daylight to penetrate deep into the interiors while also improving passive cooling and airflow, a signature feature in contemporary homes built in humid, hilly regions like Coorg. Large floor-to-ceiling glass panels erase the boundary between the interiors and the surrounding greenery.

The architecture intentionally frames the forest and mountain views almost like a living artwork. The space uses clean lines, exposed geometry and a restrained material palette instead of decorative detailing. The focus remains on volume, light and proportion rather than ornamentation.

The extended sloping metal roof with deep overhangs serves both functional and aesthetic purposes by protecting interiors from heavy rainfall and harsh sunlight, encouraging passive cooling, creating shaded outdoor transition zones, and enhancing the sleek contemporary silhouette.

Errol Fernandes, CMD, Ferns Estates and Developers

Bengaluru-based real estate company, Ferns Estates and Developers, which has entered the luxury hospitality business, is establishing properties that are close to nature and easy to reach.

The company estimates revenue of Rs 363 crore in five years from the hospitality segment alone, according to Errol Fernandes, CMD, Ferns Estates and Developers.

“We started our first resort in 2021 in Sakleshpur – a luxury property spread over 100 acres, with an investment of Rs 160 crore. At present, there are 126 keys and we plan to expand the resort by adding another 76 keys. The estimated investment for this expansion is around Rs 50 crore,” said Fernandes.

Going forward, two more resorts are being set up in Coorg, which is spread over 25 acres of coffee plantation, with an investment of Rs 60 crore, and another in Chikballapur, spread over 7 acres. “The best part is that all these locations are within a day’s drive from Bengaluru, which was one of the goals in establishing them,” he added.

The company is also acquiring a resort in Goa. “In Goa, we have acquired a 100-key property for Rs 150 crore. It is on the verge of being completed. We should be able to start operations in September 2023,” Fernandes said. The property would be funded with debt to the tune of about Rs 100 crore, and Rs 50 crore from internal accruals.

Real Estate

The company, which has been in the real estate business for the last 34 years, has built gated communities, apartments, and office spaces in Bengaluru.

“For our real estate arm, we don’t intend to venture outside Karnataka; however, we plan on going to tier-two cities such as Mysore, Mangaluru, and Hubli Dharwad. Initially, we plan to set up gated communities and then get into apartments later. As of now, we are scouting for land. We are developing another vertical called branded plots in Sakleshpur,” said Fernandes.

In the case of gated communities, it expects to grow by 20 per cent every year, and typically do around 5 lakh sq feet of sales annually. Similarly, it sells around one lakh of sq feet of apartment space annually and expects to grow by 20 per cent, said the CMD.

Ferns Estates and Developers expects to end FY23 with a revenue turnover of Rs 185 crore, of which Rs 40 crore would come from its hospitality arm.
