Location

Hotel Tigaiga sits in an elevated, peaceful corner of Puerto De La Cruz, tucked beside Parque Taoro’s landscaped grounds. From here you look out across terracotta rooftops to the Atlantic, with Mount Teide dominating the skyline behind you.

It\u2019s a leisurely stroll or short taxi ride down to the resort centre, where you\u2019ll find the seafront promenade, dark-sand beaches and the famous Lago Martiánez seawater pools. The north of Tenerife is greener and more traditional than the south, making this a great base for botanical gardens, historic streets and drives into the island’s volcanic interior.

Restaurants and Bars

Food at Hotel Tigaiga has a refined-but-relaxed feel, with a focus on fresh produce and local flavours served in leafy settings.

Restaurante Jardín (Buffet Restaurant)
The main restaurant serves buffet breakfast and dinner, with show-cooking stations and a mix of international and Spanish dishes. Expect plenty of salads, grilled fish and meats, and vegetarian choices. Highchairs are available. The atmosphere is smart-casual; the hotel requests no beachwear and asks gentlemen to wear long trousers for dinner.

Restaurante A La Carta Tinguaro
An à la carte spot on the terrace, ideal for a more intimate lunch or dinner. The menu blends Canarian classics and wider Mediterranean influences, paired with local wines. Adults-only and with a relaxed, elegant dress code (no beachwear).

Bar Atlántico (Lounge Bar)
A cosy lounge bar (adults only) that opens in the evening, perfect for a pre-dinner aperitif or a quiet nightcap. Opening times may vary with occupancy, but it typically operates between 19:00 and 23:00.

Please note that reservations may be required for some dining, and a supplement may be payable depending on your board basis. Operational details and opening hours are based on the previous season and can be subject to change.
Board options here are Bed & Breakfast and Half Board rather than All Inclusive, giving you flexibility to sample Puerto De La Cruz\u2019s restaurant scene too.

Pool Areas and Beach

– Sunbathing area with comfortable sunbeds and parasols
– Complimentary pool towels
– Views out towards the ocean or surrounding greenery

Facilities and heating schedules may vary by season, but this is very much a space for leisurely laps and quiet reading rather than noisy activities.

While the hotel isn\u2019t directly on the beach, you\u2019re roughly 1.5km from Puerto De La Cruz\u2019s dark-sand beaches and the famous Lago Martiánez seawater pool complex, which offer plenty of sea-swimming and sunbathing options.
