Where to begin! Beautiful, relaxing experience. Claudia & Juan were so welcoming, helpful, and kind. Assisted with great humour and spirit for everything I needed. I already miss Chef Miguel's breakfasts. Such a wonderful way to start each day; especially when it can be hard to eat later in the day, when it's hot. The room was lovely. My only complaint is outside the hotel's control- nearby business has very loud music and thumping bass until late. The ambience is worth a bit of missed sleep though. The gardens were peaceful during rain, and cool during sunshine. A very relaxing and rejuvenating space. Watching the birds and animals in the preserve was fun. Such a quick walk to the beach, and SO many great places to eat. Last day with major travel delays, Evelyn was beyond kind with luggage storage and space to chill. I am very appreciative of the restorative atmosphere this team provides.

When we arrived for 5 nights, the receptionist said that they had no record of the booking from Expedia! I produced my hard copy of the reservation. We were able to stay for 2 nights only as the hotel was busy, and had to find another hotel for 3 nights.
Unfortunately this is the second time that a reservation with Expedia in 6 months was not recognised by the hotel. Our previous problem was with Polwaththa Ecolodge in Sri Lanka in February 2025 and that was fully paid! The hard copy was important.
After 20 years of using Expedia, I am very unhappy with them as they are seriously slipping up!
Hotel La Semilla is a comfortable, bespoke hotel, which is a bit dated, needs a makeover and is in the lively centre of Playa del Carmen.

It is very traditional, unique and eco-friendly property. Lovely decor in an amazingly beautiful structure. Everyone was super nice and helpful. Complimentary breakfast was delicious, eating surrounded by nature.

Perfect location and service, but rooms need an update.
I had a mixed experience during my recent stay. On the positive side, the location is unbeatable, the staff were wonderful, and the breakfast was truly fantastic. However, while the hotel is marketed as 'vintage,' the room furnishings felt more outdated and musty than charming. Practical issues, like drawers that didn't work, made the stay less comfortable. It’s a great spot if you prioritize service and location, but the rooms could use some maintenance.
