Sentido Galosol is the ultimate family-friendly getaway on the sun-kissed south side of Madeira. Sharing its sprawling complex with the adults-only Sentido Galomar, this hotel is all about keeping everyone entertained while offering a slice of island paradise. Expect a dizzying array of facilities, from a state-of-the-art gym and fitness classes to a private swimming bay and house reef with four incredible snorkel spots. Dining is a treat, too, with two fabulous restaurants – buffet and a la carte – and bars that include a poolside hangout and a lively lounge with entertainment. It’s the perfect recipe for an activity-packed escape where the whole family can unwind.
Perched 44 metres above the Atlantic, Sentido Galosol boasts breathtaking ocean views and easy access to Madeira’s best. Just two miles away, Canico invites you to wander its botanical gardens, take in the Cristo Rei Viewpoint or ride the cable car down to a secluded beach. Eight miles out, Funchal, the island’s buzzing capital, tempts with its historical cathedral, Sao Tiago Fortress, bustling marina and eateries – from laid-back to luxe . For nature lovers, Ponta de Sao Lourenco, 15 miles away, delivers dramatic coastlines, stunning rock formations and wildlife-spotting adventures . Golfers will be spoiled, too, with Palheiro’s scenic 18-hole course – six miles away – and Santo da Serra’s award-winning 27-hole course – nine miles away. Madeira Airport is located approximately six and a half miles from your hotel.
Sentido Galosol spans three family-friendly buildings, all echoing the chic coastal vibes of its adults-only sister hotel, Sentido Galomar. Its organic, breezy style flows right thought the lobby and communal spaces, and into the rooms. Effortlessly calming, accommodation come wrapped in a palette of soft neutrals and ocean blues. Spaces are warmed with fawn tones, wood accents and a sprinkle of Mediterranean charm in the fabrics and tile-inspired patterns. Bathrooms are spa-like with marble-style sinks, sleek silver hardware and more natural tones. Back-lit desks and curtain rails in some rooms also add a modern twist.
