Hotel Tigaiga (SPAIN)

Circular Hospitality – Regenerating Tenerife through tourism Hotel Tigaiga, in Puerto de la Cruz on Tenerife, is a family-run hotel with a simple idea: a holiday can leave a place better. The team cares for the island through everyday choices that guests can see and feel. It starts in the gardens. More than 4,000 m² are planted with native and endemic species. These green spaces help pollinators and support local biodiversity. In the kitchen, organic waste is turned into compost and returned to the soil. Water-saving systems reduce consumption, and solar panels provide clean energy. Small actions, repeated daily, can bring big changes. The hotel works with local producers, artisans and cooperatives, choosing seasonal and regional products whenever possible. This supports Tenerife’s economy and keeps local expertise alive. Partnerships with the island’s associations and public bodies strengthen shared projects and community ties. Tigaiga also opens its doors to learning. Students, professionals and local groups can join guided visits to see how a hotel can combine comfort with care for nature. It is practical, honest, and easy to understand. Travellers drive this change. By choosing this stay, guests support local suppliers and help these actions continue. Step by step, a holiday break in Tenerife becomes more than rest, it becomes a small way to preserve this unique island.
