Get to know us

Welcome to Totally Tropical Shop, your ultimate destination for all things tropical, stylish, and indulgent in home and garden escapism!

Our Journey

Our story began with a deep-rooted passion for tropical gardening. You can follow the Totally Tropical Gardener on Instagram and Facebook for more inspiration on Hardy Exotic Gardening. We were enchanted by the lush greenery, vibrant blooms, and tranquil vibes of the tropics. As we cultivated our own tropical paradise, we realised that creating a tropical lifestyle at home and in the garden was a true art form. Thus, Totally Tropical Shop was born.

From Tropical Gardens to Tiki Bars

What started as a fascination with tropical gardens evolved into a mission to help you bring the tropical lifestyle to your own doorstep. We delved into the world of tiki bars and tropical decor, exploring the enchanting fusion of style and escapism that defines this unique aesthetic.

Beyond the Tropics

But our journey didn't stop there. We've expanded our horizons to cover all facets of escapism, from the creation of the perfect man cave or she shack to the design of home bars that transport you to distant shores. We've explored the world of home arcades, relaxing in hot tubs, and sculpting dreamy home gyms. And, of course, we haven't forgotten the importance of gardening and garden decor that transforms your outdoor space into a sanctuary.
