Divine Cuisine & Drink
Food & Beverage
One very unique aspect of Yaxa Nosara is our elevated and curated approach to our Food and Beverage offering. Yaxa co-owner, Lisa Baehni brings her classically trained French approach to the culinary aspects that are more reminiscent of timeless Parisian bistro than anything else. In addition, Yaxa Nosara is one of the few places guests can experience the amazing skills of a local mixologist.
The Story of Yaxa
The story of the Yaxa brand began in Switzerland over 130 years ago when, Yaxa Hotel’s co-owner, Lisa Baehni’s great great grandfather chose the word for his visionary automobile company, the first in Switzerland. To Frenchmen, when the slang word is spoken a certain way, “Yaxa” literally means, “The Shit”, which is important to note, holds the more hip and complementary intent of the word. Such a cool and avante garde way of expressing favorable sentiments was rather advanced for the late 1800s but it is all the more appropriate to be the current name for this one of a kind Boutique Hotel nestled on the edge of Costa Rican jungle just meters from the breaking surf.
