PARAISO

A vision to create the Philippines’ first leisure-art-design-farming destination. Aims to provide an authentic farm-nature experience as a background to families and communities creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Making our vision of putting down roots to create a genuinely sustainable and reinvigorated community around farming, food and culture into reality– one that will continue to grow and bring the countryside and the cities together.

PARAISO is also equipped with its own ATI-accredited learning center. We are the pioneer of aqua shade technology in RXII. In this design, we will also provide on-site learning sessions on agroforestry, bee culture, aquaculture, aquaponics, coconut production and cultivation, poultry, swine production, organic farming techniques, food processing, food as medicine, and many more.

Popis projektu

The idea of PARAISO is to be known but to be hidden. Known to locals and tourists as a one of a kind aquaculture farm but to be visually hidden to instill its brand with the nature as one.

The main attraction for this one is the reception facility overhanging in a slope that would actually capture the entire view of the vicinity. From the surrounding coconut trees to the overlooking tilapia ponds.

Our Garden Alcove features a spot overlooking our refreshing ponds and has a view of beautiful sunset.

The Moor, features an exclusive platform in the middle of a lagoon amidst the backdrop of the refreshing sound of flowing waters and lights with an overpowering forest vibe and nature sounds that will surely help visitors relax.

PARAISO tends to be a destination for learning, relaxing and appreciating our own nature.
