Sentido Galosol

This is a very good hotel with some really nice facilities. The pool area is very nice with lots of comfortable sofas and nice basket like seats to relax in - breakfasts are very good too. The location is nice and the views from the room and indeed the pool area are very good - great views of kestrels flying around and resting in the trees too!!

We were upgraded to a suite which had a sitting area and a super large bedroom. There was also a number of exercise equipment in the room plus a stationary bike, this was all a nice surprise. The bed was kingsize and very comfortable. The shower was walkin. The facilities (swimming pool and beach access at the sister hotel next door) were great. We had drinks a couple times at the hotel bar (next door) and lunch. All was good - reasonable prices given the location and the food/drinks were good, also friendly staff.

Nice hotel with a beautiful location, with cool access to the water (natural platform on the rocks with a pool of seawater, with descents into the ocean) with the help of an elevator. The water was clear, warm and beautifully colored, there are a lot of beautiful fish swimming nearby (I advise you to have your own snorkeling gear, you can also rent nearby) and a lot of crabs crawling on the rocks. There is a restaurant and a bar overlooking the ocean. Good breakfast, buffet type. Very nice staff. We had a spacious room with a terrace and ocean view. Good internet. There is a free and paid parking lot nearby, very often filled with people coming from outside the hotel. There are small supermarkets and delicious restaurants within walking distance.

We liked the location, Caniço is quieter than Funchal but only 15 minutes away by Uber. Sea view from our room, & lovely views from the seafood restaurant & bar. We ate twice in seafood restaurant & the food was very good. Lovely sun deck beside the sea with easy access for snorkelling.

Amazing hotel & staff! They organised a nice surprise for us - we were celebrating 15th wedding anniversary! The hotel & rooms are exceptionally clean, the staff was amazing - they were very attentive to every request (lunch box, taxi etc) and were happy to help me to practice Portuguese with me:) The view from the room was amazing! Thanks a lot!
