Ocho Artisan Bungalows

Maravilloso lugar, excelente ubicación y gran servicio

Pasar mi cumpleaños en Ocho Artisan Tamarindo fue como habitar un sueño frente al mar. Todo en este lugar tiene alma: las texturas, la arquitectura, la brisa. Pero lo que realmente lo hace inolvidable es su gente. Lourdes, Gerardo, Yimmy, Paul... cada uno con una energía que acaricia, que acompaña, que eleva. Me regalaron no solo hospitalidad, sino momentos. Tamarindo me abrazó con sol, con calma y con estilo. Volveré, porque algunos lugares no se visitan, se sienten.

I just can't stress enough how wonderful this place is. We absolutely loved it. The bungalows are gorgeous (and air conditioned!). They are incredibly comfortable and spacious. The pool is great and the beach is AMAZING. The food at the restaurant was EXCELLENT. We had a wide variety for both lunch and dinner and just loved it. The staff couldn't have been more accommodating and helpful. We had to leave early and they packed us a fruit / yogurt / granola bowl for each person in our party. After having mediocre experiences elsewhere, this location was a breath of fresh air. Thank you for helping us end our vacation on a VERY high note!

The bungalow was very private, clean and decor was very typical Costa Rica, which we loved. We had a small porch with seating, a well-stocked kitchen area, and the bed was super comfortable. Short walk to the lovely pool, and the beach. Get ready for glorious sunsets! There are many dining options nearby, and the area is super walkable. A couple things to note: wear shoes as you walk the property. The paving is a bit uneven & can get quite hot during the day. The outdoor pathway lighting is a bit bright at night, which is great for safety & security, but can be a bit intrusive if you like to sleep in complete darkness. The staff here are the real stars, however. Ilse checks in every day, but in the least obtrusive way. She has a ton of knowledge about the area, and is more than willing to help set you up with whatever you need, or wherever you want to go. She was fabulous and so friendly. The bar & service staff were incredibly friendly & professional. Breakfast is included, and you get to eat right on the beach:) Overall an incredibly comfortable & enjoyable stay.

The room was very comfortable and the Ilse and Sue were very attentive hosts/concierge. I appreciated their daily check-ins ensuring our room was cleaned and ready around our schedule. Ilse also ensured we had reliable well-timed transportation. Thanks to all the team for a great stay.
