The breakfast was fresh, with a variety of choice. The bedroom was nice clean and spacious with a view that was amazing to watch the sunrise each morning from the balcony. The facilities were good, the bus services 155 into town always punctual and again the journey to Funchal had amazing ocean and hilltop views, with winding roads offering a nice sceneric veiws. I enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend.

The Spa was incredible. We used the ocean view sauna every day and loved it! Room was clean and tidy, we had a nice view from our balcony. Walkable to many restaurants in the area. It was a relaxing and quiet location compared to the more lively Funchal.

Absolutely lovely hotel, the breakfast brunch was fantastic every time. The location is great if you plan to travel around the island as it’s 20 seconds from the highway. The ocean view was great as well. The restaurant and markets that are 30 seconds walk from the hotel were phenomenal as well. Definitely staying here again when I come back!

Sentido Galosol is a lovely hotel. Few complaints - no luggage cart to bring luggage (no bellhop service), very limited onsite parking (street parking available at 4. Euro/fay), no lotions in bathroom. Still, I would recommend. Good location, good breakfast, good price

Inna

Great hotel, with lots of restaurants, lounges, loved the beach/pool/cliff area. Breakfast has a lot of variety. Limited parking and no dedicated shampoo or conditioner, only one bottle of soap/gel for both body and hair. Rooms renovated but not completely, the terrace and windows are still dated. Overall, we did enjoy our stay, there were a lot more positives than negatives.
