I stayed here with my family for my 40th birthday, and the team went above and beyond to make it special. From a surprise champagne toast at breakfast to personalized room touches I didn’t even have to request, everything was perfect. I’m so grateful to the staff for making my stay unforgettable. I would absolutely come back again! ##### Ashley Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bianca Jul 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful spot, great location ##### Bianca Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Iain Feb 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great stay and location ##### Iain Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew May 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Nice hotel with great staff and good view ##### Andrew Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great balcony view and the hotel had a good breakfast but the grill restaurant was the best.

The room was very spacious, bigger than we expected and the breakfast offered a wide selection. The staff were also friendly.

A wonderful end to my time in Madeira. The hotel was stunning and the staff were so lovely and welcoming. My room was one of the best hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed out of all my various trips - extremely clean, well ventilated, warm and cosy and as someone who is passionate about interior styling, I really appreciated the minimalist design. Breakfast and dinner at the hotel restaurant was good and the close proximity to local restaurants and shops was a bonus too. Already dreaming about my next stay here 😍 ##### Shanae Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Krystal Feb 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Krystal Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vitor Sep 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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! ##### Vitor Stayed 9 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lorena Jun 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had an incredible time at sentido Galosol.

Not great, not bad. The adult only hotel, Sentido Galomar looked much better and the facilities e.g spa, nicer restaurant, lounge was located in the other hotel meaning you have to walk (very short walk though). Breakfast was very basic, the buffet lunch and dinner were much better. ##### Oluwagbemisola Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tranda Feb 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our room had a ocean view and the surrounding area was beautiful and peaceful. ##### Tranda Stayed 11 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kirstin Nov 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Kirstin Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Riu Cancun - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Riu-Cancun-All-Inclusive.h1087292.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Royal All Inclusive Ocean & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Royal-Premium-All-Inclusive-Ocean-Spa-Resort.h487421.Hotel-Information) > > [Calheta Beach - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Calheta-Hotels-Calheta-Beach-All-Inclusive-Savoy-Signature.h1056570.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana CR7 Funchal](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-CR7-Funchal.h15737408.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradox Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Paradox-Hotel-Vancouver.h70417639.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Madeira Mare](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Melia-Madeira-Mare.h2264070.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Casino Park Ocean and SPA Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Casino-Park-Ocean-And-SPA-Hotel.h14349.Hotel-Information) > > [Reid's Palace, A Belmond Hotel, Madeira](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Reids-Palace.h11185.Hotel-Information) > > [Enotel Lido](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Enotel-Lido.h881176.Hotel-Information) > > [ Saccharum Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Calheta-Hotels-Saccharum-Resort-Spa-Savoy-Signature.h10225046.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cliff Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-The-Cliff-Bay.h190859.Hotel-Information) > > [Deerhurst Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Deerhurst-Resort.h23864.Hotel-Information) > > [The Residence at Vila Porto Mare](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-The-Residence-At-Vila-Porto-Mare.h8034952.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Carlton Madeira Ocean Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Carlton-Madeira-Ocean-Resort-Hotel.h14327.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Lisbon District](https://www.expedia.ca/Lisbon-District-Hotels.d178278.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel Ocean Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Hotel-Ocean-Gardens.h2591201.Hotel-Information) > > [Allegro Madeira - Adults Only - Member of Barceló Hotel Group](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Allegro-Madeira-Adults-Only.h1548302.Hotel-Information) > > [Savoy Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World - Savoy Signature](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Savoy-Palace-The-Leading-Hotels-Of-The-World-Savoy-Signature.h32089418.Hotel-Information) > > [TURIM Santa Maria Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Turim-Santa-Maria-Hotel.h39013081.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Santa Cruz Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Vila-Gale-Santa-Cruz.h1376009.Hotel-Information) > > [Sé Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Se-Boutique-Hotel.h19531083.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Grand Premium Ocean Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Funchal-Hotels-Pestana-Grand-Premium-Ocean-Resort.h1052356.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Korean Air](https://www.expedia.ca/Korean-Air-Flights.cKE.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Lisbon District (LIS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/lis/edmonton-to-lisbon) ### Cruise
