I stayed for 4 nights and could not have been happier. My bungalow was so comfortable with close access to the pool and the ocean. The staff made me feel so welcome, cannot wait to go back!

Had such a great time at this resort. The hotel was super walkable and convenient. The outdoor bathrooms were a little odd for us, but still nice. Staff was super friendly and helpful.

The staff was super friendly when we needed help getting a taxi to go outside of town. There was also a situation where a drunk man followed us and the hotel staff helped protect us. They also provided great recommendations and the complimentary breakfast and welcome beverage was a perk. The bed was also extremely comfortable! Thank you!

Wonderful stay began terribly & ended badly too;but everything in between was great.Beginning:we were alarmed to read more than 1 review re guests had booked&paid more for "luxury pool front bungalow" but they were not given one of the two pool front bungalows.We had paid more for this too..We arrived & were taken to our bungalow:NOT pool front; instead one near the back of the hotel,with road behind. We refused it but the staff said nothing they could do. After standing our ground getting nowhere,we demanded they gave us the room we had paid for or money back:6 nights £300+per night.More staff got involved,phone calls made;40 minutes later the occupants of our correct bungalow had been moved out, & we had correct luxury pool front room.To be fair, staff were apologetic & when we said this happens a lot doesn't it? they looked embarrassed & said the owners & their daughter do the bookings & they are not on site.Anyway after that GREAT food (including 7 vegan options for dinner),very good service,especially from Jimmy in charge of the restaurant, on the beach. Breakfast watching the waves & sunsets in the evening were incredible too. Breakfast menu was good;as we are vegans chef was happy to help with our vegan requests.Only criticism is only 1 drink included with breakfast is stingy. Our room was lovely, clean, pool was refreshing, day-beds comfy &available.Location perfect.Owners got our leaving date wrong,no apology. Due to owners errors have to mark down to 4 stars.

The property and our actual bungalow was eclectic, artistic and beautiful. The resort is located very central, and walkable to so many restaurants and shops. This property is on the beach and the outdoor restaurant has swinging chairs, benches, gazebos under romantic lighting, as a DJ plays soothing music in the evening. We stayed in Bungalow 8 which was large, decorated uniquely with some Asian decor. We loved it !

This was my second time staying at this property. The first time was great however this stay was tainted. When we arrived I placed an envelope containing 1300 US dollars in the safe (the safe had a lock with a key not a pin pad). On the 3rd day I went to get cash out of the safe for a private boat tour and noticed over 400 dollars was missing. The safe was kept locked at all times when we were not in the room. I reported it to management and we were compensated with a complimentary boat tour.
The property is nice and in a great location but be cautious with putting valuables (money, jewelry, etc..) in the safe. I would not stay at this property again.

Ocho Artisan Bungalows is a lovely property with great bungalows and a beautiful pool, restaurant and beach. Those who work there are very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner was the best that we experienced in Costa Rica. The surrounding area of Tamarindo is quite loud with pulsing music late into the night that you can hear loudly in your room. We also had a small amount of money taken from our room which we reported to the front office. Hopefully, they do address that issue as there are so many lovely people who work there.

The beachfront location of our bungalow could not be beat! We enjoyed listening to and watching the antics of a group of Howler Monkeys in the trees above our bungalow. The restaurant food was very good. We enjoyed every meal we had there and also liked the walkability to many other beachfront restaurants. The bungalow itself has a unique Bohemian feel. We also enjoyed the nightly music and fire shows. As far as the service,Miguel, Miya, Sebastian and Jose were top notch. I'm sure I'm forgetting someone but the vibe here is very warm and welcoming. I wish we could've stayed longer!

Unique property in the area right on the beach. It's a busy beach but long and beautiful. The property feels secluded.The bungalows were very private and beautifully decorated. They are a bit rustic but feel luxurious with welcomed air conditioning. The staff were helpful in booking excursions. The breakfast included was generous.
There was an on site DJ but we did not have the experience during our stay. I would recommend a stay here.

We absolutely loved our stay at Ocho! While the photos made the property seem larger and more luxurious than it actually was, that was only a small hiccup in our stay. And I only mention it because if you are very picky and want sumptuous luxury, Tamarindo isn't the place for you. I wanted to get an authentic feel for the country and Ocho didn't disappoint. The bungalow that we stayed in was quaint and cozy as well as very clean.
The staff is phenomenal. Miguel, the GM is an absolute superstar. He made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived and continued to be an absolutely perfect host for our entire stay.
Ocho Artisan Bungalows gives you the feeling that you are in the jungle with nature while actually being in town. We walked the beach and soaked up the sun for days. Amazing!!!!
Miguel organized a seafood feast for my birthday and the chef deserves a five star review. We never had a bad meal at Ocho. It is undoubtedly the best place to stay on the Beach in Tamarindo...maybe the best place in Tamarindo period!
We are back in Canada missing our new friends at Ocho and really missing the stunning sun and sand. Thanks to those at Ocho for making our stay memorable and very enjoyable.

The staff is wonderful, we ended up getting in late in the evening but they were there to greet us with warm smiles. Our bungalow was wonderful and the resort was gorgeous and intimate. So many dining options right on the beach (including the onsite restaurant). We would love to visit again.

Positives about Ocho Artisian Bungalows…The staff was great, very friendly and helpful!
The place is a very good location in Tamarindo on the beach.
Negatives…The bungalow we stayed in could use some work. There was no hot water when we got there, they did fix it the next day but the shower was only a dribble to get hot water the whole time. The AC went out the next night, they did fix it and it worked great after.
The food was only ok and there are better restaurants walking distance.
There was music with bass pumping close by a couple of nights until 5:30am!! We didn’t need a quiet getaway but that was ridiculous.
We did not think Ocho Artisian Bungalow is worth the money we paid to stay here. That said, it did look like they were doing some renovations so hopefully they realize there is some upkeep to do.
