How we delivered a truly turnkey furnishing experience for property investors in Puerto Vallarta

At CRATE Interiors, our benchmark is always the Big Reveal — that unforgettable moment when owners walk into their new home and realize there’s nothing left to do but enjoy it.

That’s the compliment we hear most often from our clients — and it’s the gold standard we’ve designed our turnkey furnishing program to achieve. When we say truly turnkey, this is exactly what we mean.

Design ideas to make every arrival unforgettable

Your entryway is more than just a door — it’s the first impression your home makes to the outside world. Whether you’re welcoming weekend guests or checking into your own slice of paradise, that first step sets the tone for everything that follows.

Even compact entrances and narrow hallways can make a statement with the right design. Here are a few CRATE designer-approved ways to create a warm, functional and unforgettable first welcome in your vacation home or rental property.

When Vacation Homes Evolve — and So Should the Design

Who’s ready for an upgrade? This past summer, many of our loyal homeowners and real estate investors joined our SUMMER☀️ REFRESH campaign — updating their vacation homes with elevated furnishings, new bedding, re-upholstered outdoor seating and luxe finishing touches that make a property feel brand new again.
