Hotel La Semilla B&B has a laid-back atmosphere. The organic forms and simple design reflect a sense of Mexican history, heritage, style and simplicity. The property, located in Calle 38, is in the middle of the trendiest part of town and surrounded by jungle. This nine room B&B, adults only, embraces the mystery of its past with the strong artistic personality of its present.
Great place in a great location, near the beach and some good restaurants. The gardens inside are beautiful, the breakfast was really worthy and the staff is also great. The shower is weak, and there were a few mosquitoes, but that was expected for the amount of trees and beautiful plants there. They also provide mosquito’s repellent. Would stay here again without a doubt. You can also see some cute wild animals through the window while eating breakfast. Really cozy place.

Lovely small boutique hotel that’s part of the Marriott family. The garden areas are a peacefu place to hang out between activities. Chef Gabriel and the team made a lovely breakfast, with each day being a unique entree. Juan, Brito, and Ale were very attentive and responsive to any requests. The location is extremely convenient to restaurants and the central part of town.

Beautiful property! Very charming and relaxing, delicious and varied freshly cooked breakfasts each morning. Lovely room with good air conditioning as well as a ceiling fan. The garden area and rooftop were great spaces to relax and meet our fellow guests. The location is perfect; surrounded by beautiful trees arching over the street and a short walk to the beach. Many great restaurants within a block or two and just steps away from bustling 5th Avenue.

Disconnected for a little bit here, staff is fantastic! Everyone but specially Ale at the front desk. Great food in the morning for breakfast, I recommend you always try their daily special menu, authentic Mexican food. The chef is exceptional, very attentive and caring.

The courtyard at La Semilla is a really special place to have breakfast before the beach or enjoy a drink after a long day. We love this special hotel and always feel so welcomed. The location is perfect and the vibe is very relaxing.

Love La Semilla! So rare to find a hotel with real soul, and La Semilla has it. Perfect for a getaway. This was our second stay and it still has the same romantic, personal feel as the first. Can’t wait to return.

The hotel is fantastic. The rooms are comfortable and unique. The garden and lounge area are beautiful and peaceful. The staff is great. Juan and Ale are always attentive and helpful. Gabriel is a master cook and creates the best breakfast. We will stay here every time we come back to Playa del Carmen.

It's a beautiful hotel with lovely rooms, welcoming staff and amazing garden/restaurant area. We arrived super late in the evening but were still checked-in and were given a bottle of wine on arrival. The garden area is stunning and the food in the mornings is incredible (fruit and granola followed by freshly cooked Mexican dishes and your choice of smoothie. The staff were lovely and helped us with booking tours and taxis. There are also bikes you can take out if you don't want to walk or use public transport. My personal favourite thing was eating breakfast an seeing the wildlife just beyond the seating area: Coatis, large birds and capybara-like animals. I would definitely come back it felt like a hidden gem in Playa del Carmen.

Hidden gem in Playa with beautiful gardens, rooftop area, great location to beach and restaurants. Brito made our stay so pleasant by being so welcoming and handling busy breakfast time with a smile. He was great to talk to and you could tell he really cared and enjoyed his job. Highly recommend this cozy place of 9 rooms with lush gardens!
