What owners should know before getting started.
Clear scope, authority and reporting matter. These answers explain how Driftwood’s private home management in San Juan del Sur and surrounding Southern Nicaragua communities works.
What does private home management include?
Driftwood coordinates residence oversight, preventive-maintenance planning, cleaning, laundry, household supplies, owner or family arrival preparation, and owner-approved staff and vendors.
Does Driftwood provide private home management in San Juan del Sur?
Yes. Phase 1 serves selected luxury villas and private residences in San Juan del Sur and approved surrounding communities in Southern Nicaragua.
How are maintenance decisions and costs approved?
The owner sets written routine and emergency authority limits. Material work begins with a documented issue, recommended scope and approval; third-party costs, receipts, photographs and completion evidence remain visible.
Is this the same as vacation-rental management?
No. This is a separate private-home service for owners. Phase 1 excludes rental listings, reservations, booking-channel management, paying-guest services and rent collection.
How does a new management relationship begin?
It starts with a confidential consultation and Private Residence Review, followed by a property-specific operating plan, maintenance outlook, authority schedule and commercial proposal.
Private homes only in Phase 1.
Phase 1 covers residence oversight, maintenance planning and coordination, cleaning, laundry, household supplies, owner or family arrival preparation, and coordination of owner-employed or approved third-party staff. Driftwood does not present itself as the specialist trade performing regulated or technical work; approved third-party costs remain separately visible. Phase 1 excludes rental listings, reservations, booking-channel management, paying-guest services, rent collection, cooking and childcare.
Protect the home you have built—and enjoy it with greater peace of mind.
Driftwood is selecting up to five founding residences in San Juan del Sur and approved surrounding communities.
