Very unique place, artsy, non-corporate, delightful. Bungalows had covered porches with very comfortable outdoor furniture, including tables, couches, fans and lighting. AC worked great. Ilse and her staff are incredibly responsive and go out of their way to make this a wonderful and welcoming place. Breakfast is right on the beach but in the shade of trees and umbrellas. Walking distance (5 min) to vibrant downtown with clubs, excellent restaurants and shopping. We ate at the hotel’s small beachfront restaurant several times in additional to breakfast (which included lots of different tropical, costa to an, and American breakfast options). Wildlife is all around including monkeys, egrets, a crocodile (fenced out), and we saw an iguana in the trees.

Our bungalow was a beautiful sight, and we had the privilege of seeing monkeys, raccoons, and even a crocodile! The restaurant area offered a breathtaking view. The entire staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, remembering our names and making sure we had everything we needed. Sue was particularly great—friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we required. Ilse was amazing, going above and beyond to make each day of our stay special. She provided recommendations, engaged us in delightful conversations, and made us feel truly valued. To celebrate my 40th birthday, Ilse elevated the festivities by decorating our room while we were away. She also spoke to the chef to prepare our catch, and dinner was simply delicious, complemented by the rest of the food. We had an incredible time here, and Ilse truly made our vacation unforgettable. If you’re visiting Tamarindo, we highly recommend this place!

Everything at Ocho was amazing, the customer service went above and beyond to make it have a family feel and that we were always taken care of. The rooms were amazing, breakfast every morning was delicious, the beach club and restaurant was one of the best on the beach with great music. The location is extremely close to all restaurants.I felt super safe which was something I worried about being right on the beach but the rooms are very protected. I have zero bad things to say about this place, 10/10 experience and would HIGHLY recommend staying here!

Staff were very welcoming and friendly, our garden room was beautiful and different from staying in an ordinary hotel. Location was perfect on the beach at the end of the restaurant strip , easy to walk along the front but not too noisy. Drinks and food were good but not served quickly, but that just CG ave you time to watch the world walk by on the beach or surf, we wish we could have stayed longer and will stay here again

Wow - what a magical time! I cannot recommend this hotel enough. Pri and Zula were INCREDIBLE - the best service and absolute kindest people. Gabriel at the bar was also exceptional - everyone staffed was so kind, warm, and friendly. We felt truly at home :) The rooms are absolutely gorgeous, bed is comfortable, and so charming/unique. Super safe area and the food at the restaurant was incredibly delicious - the fish and chicken tacos were some of the best bites we had on our entire vacation! The grounds were also gorgeous and we loved the pool and overall vibes. Would 100% come back and highly recommend Ocho to anyone visiting the area!

Our stay at the bungalow in Costa Rica was absolutely exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the entire team made us feel completely at home. I wish I had captured everyone’s names, as each staff member contributed to making our experience so warm and memorable. Ilsa was outstanding — she greeted us with genuine kindness and made us feel as though we had known her for years. We enjoyed every conversation with her, and on the day of our departure, she even arrived early to ensure our van was ready so we could leave on time. Her thoughtfulness and dedication were truly appreciated. Priscilla did a wonderful job surprising us with beautiful honeymoon decorations and a romantic dinner setup that made the evening unforgettable. The attention to detail and care she put into every touch showed how much pride she takes in creating special experiences for guests. Raziel was another highlight of our stay. He checked in with us daily, always ensuring that we were comfortable and well taken care of. His friendly demeanor, attentiveness, and professionalism made every meal a pleasure. Every member of the team went above and beyond to provide a personal and welcoming experience. The service, warmth, and genuine hospitality we received made our trip one we will always cherish. We truly felt like we were leaving friends behind rather than just a vacation spot — and we will definitely be back to see our new friends again soon.

The staff was warm, attentive, and friendly, and they immediately addressed any issues that arose. The secluded, intimate property in the heart of the bustling surf town was exactly what we sought for a 5 day/4 night stay. The pool was a plus, and the tub in the room was a nice place to relax during any rain showers that popped up. The property is walkable with direct access to the beach, a food truck park, and the rest of town. Right on the property, we saw monkeys, iguanas, and other wildlife. We would stay again, and we highly recommend Ocho to anyone looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating vacation.

Bathrooms were very moldy, and the rooms smelled moldy. The Glass on the windows is very thin, so you hear everything, including the local clubs all night. Sat down for drinks the first day and was hounded by my local salespeople. I think within an hour, we had 15 people walking up from the beach to sell us trinkets, and the staff did nothing to run them off. They joked and laughed with them and gave them drinks. It made it extremely hard to relax in the restaurant area when you have to tell someone no multiple times every 3 minutes. The entrance to the hotel is also very sketchy. Our driver was like, "Are you sure this is it?" lol Other than that, it was okay. If they fix these issues, they would be worth the price. But the mold smell and mold on the doors are overwhelming.

My spouse and I were overcharged for activities such as massages, transportation, and a catamaran. We pre-booked with the owner of Ocho, and learned later that they overcharge and it’s better to work with the team on site or to book them yourself. Very disappointed, because the actual staff on site were warm and welcoming. Our bungalow had mold/fungus growing on the ceiling. Poorly sealed bungalows lead to more moisture and creatures/bugs getting inside. We would not recommend this establishment and we will not be returning. Nothing was offered to rectify the issue. Lesson learned, research and book activities on our own next time in CR.

I’m not even sure where to start with our recent 8 night stay at Ocho. My husband and I had our first trip to Costa Rica and after staying at the Bungalows, I don’t know how we will ever vacation anywhere else. Everything was BEYOND top notch. Bungalows: exactly as pictured! Beautiful and private with all of the amenities you need. The housekeeping staff works tirelessly to make sure they are immaculate! The grounds are kept spotless and the pool is also beautiful. Location: Ocho is in the heart of Tamarindo, but when you walk in the property, you feel light years away from any city life. The bungalows are situated ocean front so you can wake up for beautiful morning beach walks as well. Beach Club: The food at the beach club is so fresh and fantastic! The fruit is to die for. Breakfast each morning was filling and so tasty. Choices included Eggs Benedict, fruit and yogurt parfaits, French toast, pancakes and traditional American and Costa Rican breakfasts. Lunch and dinner were just as good! Service: The service at Ocho Bungalows is what truly sets it apart from anywhere I have stayed before. Staff takes care to learn your name and likes/dislikes on day 1. They instantly make you feel like family while sharing their culture with you. I celebrated my birthday while there and Gio, Pamela and Priscilla went out of their way to make it absolutely perfect and amazing during a romantic beach front dinner. Both Gabriel’s, Bryan, Leny, Priscilla, Zuly, Gio, and Pamela were AMAZING!

Great little boutique hotel, staff was very nice and helpful. The food was surprisingly great, just didn’t expect it for a small beach front hotel. Pool was quite with a picture frame view of the ocean. We stayed in the beachfront bungalow, which has a nice outdoor seating area. It is a little small for two couples, which we were, but doable. Close walk to town for other choices to eat or shop.
