San Pedro de
Atacama - the restaurant in our traditional hotel, near desert hot springs
Our daily food, from the buffet
breakfast with fresh fruits, natural juices, home-made bread and pastries,
to meals of traditional Andean fare prepared with local ingredients like
quinoa, maize and fresh vegetables, will give you a feeling of wellness
that comes from food prepared with care.
Wines specially selected for
us from world-renowned Chilean vineyards will be offered to accompany
meals. Food and drink were considered sacred by the ancients, and thus
they are considered by our chef and his small staff from San Pedro de
Atacama.
While most guests prefer our
traditional offerings, which remind the of the earth that we inhabit,
we are always careful to offer alternatives more familiar to our guests
from abroad. We are keen to look after your needs so that you can enjoy
your time and activities to the full while in San Pedro de Atacama.
The lodge called Terrantai
or Place of Calm is situated in the heart of the village of San Pedro
de Atacama next to the village church, just steps from the craft market,
and close by the small assortment of restaurants and shops that comprise
San Pedro today. The inspiration of the lodge, from the breadth of its
traditional stone and adobe walls to the meandering layout of its traditional
stone passages and patios, will transport you to another world. Our tours
and trips - soft adventure - to the surrounding desert, salt lakes with
flamingoes, altiplano, el tatio geysers, volcanoes, sunset in valley of
the moon (valle de la luna), will inspire you and fill you with the spirit
of the Atacama and its people.
Terrantai is built on the
ruins of an old house, which rose from ruins of a very old house that
is next to the plaza that is the centre of San Pedro. In this house, through
the very thickness of its walls, and the natural stone of its making,
one feels not only the tug of history, but also the energy of ancestors.
Today, our lodge accommodation, daily adventures and meals are inspired
by the history and sharing that has passed between these walls. In an
age of transcontinental flights, orthopedic footbeds, and waterproof breathable
fabric, we are sure that you will find that adventure amidst tradition
opens an inspiring doorway upon another world where discovery and comfort
exist side by side in this friendly welcoming hotel.
