Ocho Artisan Bungalows, Tamarindo
Unique beachfront cabins with a quirky, bohemian vibe, plus a bar, restaurant, and beach club.
Overview
Kimkim's Take
![Brittany](https://cdn.kimkim.com/files/a/users/profile_photos/f177f793045d492005121e8ba5e330c5983675a6/thumb-d5f1be1a9e5cbe122090c2bcde450692.jpg)
- Enjoy the ideal Tamarindo location, as this is a beachfront property within walking distance of the downtown area.
- All the units are individual bungalows or villas with kitchenettes, furnished terraces, outdoor seating and/or hammocks, and unique wood decor.
- Guests can enjoy the complimentary snacks and beverages in the fridge upon arrival.
- Relax at the outdoor pool or enjoy the property's beach club.
- Though some may enjoy the property's unique, rustic feel, the decor and vibe might not suit everyone.
- Because the property is right on the main road and its on-site restaurant and beach club are open to the public, it's not as quiet as some other properties in the area.
Authenticity
This small boutique hotel offers unique bohemian vibes that bring you back to the old Tamarindo. Bungalows have draped ceilings with a yurt-like feel and a mix of wood, stone, and metal decor. With the surrounding jungle and thatched roofing, it's easy to feel immersed in Costa Rican culture.Location
You'll find Ocho Artisan Bungalows right on the beach and just a few minutes walk from the center of Tamarindo. You can easily visit local restaurants and shops, though other highlights require a car or transfer. Getting to Playa Grande, for example, takes about 40 minutes. Keep in mind that online directions take you to the property's restaurant/bar, and the hotel entrance is via a pathway off the main street, Calle Cardinal.Rooms & Bathrooms
Though right in the center of Tamarindo, the hotel feels a bit hidden, with just seven bungalows and a beachfront villa. All units are independent—so you won't share any walls with your neighbors. Sleeping up to six guests, you'll have multiple beds, a complimentary minibar, furnished terraces, beach towels, and a kitchenette with all the basic cooking essentials. The decor is unique and a little quirky at times, though the villa offers fun perks like an outdoor daybed and shower.
Wildlife
Travelers have spotted a wide range of wildlife from their bungalows, including howler monkeys, iguanas, and common Costa Rican birds such as hummingbirds and parrots. The hotel's Ocho Beach Club has direct views of the coastline and you may be able to spot several turtle species that nest on the Tamarindo beaches.
Amenities
Ocho Artisan Bungalows has an outdoor pool area with a fountain and sun loungers, with direct access to the beach. There's no on-site spa, but the hotel can arrange for massage services in your room. The property isn't fully accessible, and travelers with limited mobility may want to consider other lodging options in the area.
Family-Friendliness
The hotel allows children of all ages, and the Ocho Beach Club has a children's menu available. Families will want to book one of the villas, which come in either two or three-bedroom configurations. Some travelers have found the property to be a little too noisy at night for children, as the adjacent Ocho Beach Club keeps the party going late into the evening.
Other Highlights
Though open to the public and day guests, the bar, restaurant, and beach club are nice options if you're looking for fun and energetic evenings on the shore. Reservations are recommended in the evenings.Like what you see?
