Ogre's Paradise FREE TOURS (Sloth Tour and Horseback Riding) La Fortuna.

El Paraíso del Ogro – A magical retreat in an ogre’s house, just 12 minutes from downtown La Fortuna.

At the end of the description, you’ll find information about the tours.

Can you imagine sleeping inside an ogre’s tree… but with all the comforts of modern, elegant accommodations? At El Paraíso del Ogro, that fantasy becomes a reality. This unique themed house, built inside a giant tree, combines the magic of fairy tales with the comfort of a carefully designed space.

The house features:
• Two bedrooms with king-size beds and air conditioning for a cool and pleasant night’s sleep.
• A very spacious living room with a double sofa bed, ideal for watching movies or sleeping comfortably, and air-conditioned just like the kitchen.
• An open-concept, fully equipped kitchen with an unbeatable panoramic view of Arenal Volcano and the pool.
• Two full bathrooms, each with partially open-air showers, offering a direct connection to the natural surroundings without sacrificing privacy.
• Additionally, an outdoor bathroom and shower—perfect for after a dip.

Outside, a lush 6x3-meter pool awaits you, built with volcanic stones that not only give it a unique look but also provide health benefits thanks to their minerals. These stones retain the sun’s heat, making the water feel naturally warm. The pool features a rock-shaped waterfall that adds a stunning and relaxing touch.

And as if that weren’t enough, you can relax in a whirlpool tub, perfect for ending the day with some snacks or a glass of wine under the starry sky. You’ll also find a terrace with a BBQ area, perfect for sharing a barbecue with family or friends while enjoying the sights and sounds of nature.

As part of your stay, we include free tours:
• Guided horseback rides around the ranch.
• Spotting sloths, birds, frogs, and other native species.
• Interaction with farm animals such as goats, buffalo, and more.

El Paraíso del Ogro is ideal for couples, families, or travelers seeking a unique, authentic experience with a touch of magic. Here, fantasy, relaxation, and adventure coexist in perfect harmony.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with an oven and a microwave. A Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a coffee/tea maker and a washing machine.

Ogres Paradise was exactly that. Everything was as advertised or better. Such a cool concept. Jose and his family were gracious hosts even serving us fresh juice. 100% plan to revisit.
