YAXA

Just a 10 minute walk to the beach. Great music and late night vibe. Does what it says on the tin... Burgers and Bar. Rooms are very clean, quite small with limited space for clothes. Plunge pool nice for cooling off. Fantastic choice of restaurants within a very short walk. Burrito Amor was our favourite combo of food and service. Owner kindly arranged transfer from airport and onward for us. He also kindly rang for tuk tuks when we needed them.

We weren’t staying but stopped by for food. Disappointed. Burger was average, no other options, music too loud to talk / not loud enough to dance

Yaxa is a very unique place in Nosara. It's a whole vibe. All of the staff of Yaxa treat you like family and curate great attention to detail in every aspect of their offerings: an intentional, beautiful design and art throughout the space, gorgeous and vibrant beverage menu made with fresh fruits/herbs, a delicious complimentary breakfast that is nourishing and culturally-driven, and regular cleaning and tidy check ups on the room. The owners, Lisa and Lucca, helped us set up accommodations during our stay, such as rides to/from airport and connecting me with a local language tutor. These folks have created something special here! Yaxa is in a short stroll to the main beach, Playa Guiones, and all other parts of the town are walkable. We hired a tuk tuk driver for a couple of occasions but that was easy as can be. The beds are comfortable and the wifi connection is great (I had to have some virtual calls for work during my stay and had zero issues). If you are looking for an intimate stay that feels more local and less resort with the same comforts and more, this is the spot for you. We left feeling very inspired and taken care of. Thank you, muchas gracias, grazie mille!

What a sweet gem in the heart of Nosara. Best burgers in town

Only came to the restaurant so the review is not indicative of the hotel. It’s an OK burger. But it costs 15-17 bucks for what’s essentially a shake shack burger. Service was slow and sassy. Nothing terrible. Just an expensive and disappointing dinner when there’s other options in town.
