Condominium in Playa Pelada

Nambú is a boutique condominium of four three-story residences set into the hills above Playa Pelada in Guanacaste. The scheme totals roughly 1,512 m2 across the four homes and shared areas, each unit opening onto deep terraces, a private plunge pool, and a rooftop lounge framed by thatched pergolas, exposed volcanic stone, and timber screens. Acting as project manager, José Pablo Ortiz (then operating as PrendasLoria) led the engagement from schematic design and 3D visualization through construction documents, permitting, and competitive bidding, then carried it into construction with monthly on-site inspection and technical direction. Architecture and engineering were delivered in-house.

José Pablo Ortiz led the management of every phase — Design Management, Building Permit Management, and Pre-Construction Management — during his years at PrendasLoria.
