This Interactive Catalog is published on garden.tigaiga.com: The plant guide can be viewed from any modern computer and device.

The development has been carried out by is-real.net.

This Catalogue of Plants, is very innovative in the tools used. In Spain there is no other hotel that has used the www to show such a specialized and comprehensive information, particularly to present this case all the plants in the garden. This equates the Tigaiga with the pioneering vision of hotels like the Plaza and the Royalton in NYC, who have opted to use the iPad to give an extra service to their customers.

The desired information can be obtained by selecting different criteria: flower color, plant family, with a map location in the garden, its ornamental value, the origin of plants or the numbers you will find when you are walking around the Tigaiga gardens.

In 2009 the Tigaiga celebrated its first 50 years, so that there are plant species of “different ages”. The garden has been enriched over the years: a corner devoted to cacti and succulents, the hotel boasts to have more palm trees in their gardens than rooms does the hotel, with over 30 different varieties. There are several places to retire and enjoy the views of the colorful garden, the lawn with the ocean on the horizon.

The flora of our garden is not only endemic, as the visitor looks, especially in the winter months for contrasting colours with nuances of their winter home countries.

We look forward to your visit in situ, but meanwhile, enjoy the online page.

All comments are welcomed!

There is also a lot of singing and dancing to music played by folk groups. The procession passes along the streets of the town always attracting a large number of people. Traditional food also plays an important role in these celebrations, which the local people are proud to share with all visitors.
