Hotel La Semilla

Calle 38 norte Mz 4 Lote 3, Gonzalo Guerrero, 77720 Playa del Carmen, Q.R., Mexico

“We hope you adapt to our bohemian philosophy,” say the staff at Hotel La Semilla, by way of explanation when guests ask why rooms have no televisions (there is, however, Wi-Fi and AC). With distressed walls and furniture, the hotel has a shabby chic feel (or, as they describe it, “rough luxe”), and owners Alexis and Angie treat all guests as friends. Part of the room rate is earmarked as a donation to the Friends of Sian Ka’an, a conservation group dedicated to the preservation of the nearby Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve.

Bohemian Chic Boutique Hotel

Bohemian chic best describes the petite Hotel La Semilla, one of Playa del Carmen’s newest B&Bs. Opened in January 2014 with only nine rooms, this small, adult-only member of Design Hotels has already made its mark on the tourism trail. The emphasis here is on promoting the destination, while offering a comfortable “home-away-from-home” feel. Refreshments are offered throughout the day in the small, welcoming lobby. Infused water and complimentary beer are served by day; wine and candlelight appear when night falls
