In a turnkey project, the property owner provides the project’s vision and capital, and the prime consultant does everything else, turning your dream home into reality. Turnkey gives you the same level of control and flexibility as a design-build solution but with a crucial difference: the design-build contractor also serves as the lead design consultant and provides end-to-end project management. They coordinate and oversee all aspects of the development process — from architecture and design to permits, material procurement, and construction.

This integrated, design-led approach has been the preferred solution for several Peninsula Papagayo homeowners, whose innovative projects from SARCO Architects have been delivered successfully, on schedule and budget, with a team of experienced design professionals at the helm.

It’s no secret that design-build projects are more time-efficient than conventional design-bid-build projects. Turnkey projects are even more efficient since the design and construction teams collaborate under one roof, from concept and pre-development to delivery. A multiple International Property Award winner (5-Star, Best Architecture Single Residence Costa Rica 2021-2022; 5-Star, Best Residential Property Costa Rica, 2021-2022) PARAISO 354 showcases what is possible when a collaborative approach puts project results ahead of the needs of any one team member.
