ABOUT
Our Story
Yasumi means a break, day off, or holiday.
We were born in Santa Teresa with a simple yet profound intention: to create a space where time slows down — where stepping through the door feels like being transported somewhere else.
We designed an intimate experience — a sushi bar with only 10 seats, where each guest can observe the chefs up close: true culinary artists preparing each piece with Japanese technique and the freshest ingredients.
The warm tones of wood, the attention to detail, and the direct connection with the one preparing your food invite you to pause, taste, and enjoy.
Yasumi is not just a restaurant — it's a moment to return to the present.
EXPERIENCES
Tap to View
Fishing Experience
Begin the day at sea with a local fisherman, catching what you'll later enjoy.
Return to Yasumi for a fish-cutting ceremony where our chefs guide you through each cut — from sashimi to tartar — before savoring your own catch.
Helicopter Experience
Take flight over the Arenal Volcano and witness Costa Rica from the sky.
After landing, a private omakase awaits — crafted by our sushi chef and served with the volcano as your backdrop.
Omakase Experience
Omakase means "I leave it up to you."
Let our chefs guide you through a 10-step tasting journey, guided by Japanese technique using fresh local ingredients.
Home Experience
Yasumi at home — the calm, the craft, the counter brought to you.
Enjoy private omakase or handroll service at your villa, with customizable menus and drink pairings for an intimate dining ritual.
Closed Doors Experience
Experience Yasumi behind closed doors — where the lights dim, the music flows, and the restaurant becomes entirely yours.
Whether it's your birthday celebration, a private dinner with friends, or an evening meant to feel unlike any other, Closed Doors transforms Yasumi into a space reserved just for your group.
