Madeira

Gorgeous hotel, highly recommend. We were in a sea view & it was worth every penny. Breakfast is small but with everything you need & an amazing view. We booked with wellness escapes so had a spa package pre-booked, every treatment we had (there were 4 of us) was wonderful so all therapists are as good as each other. Definitely treat yourself, you’ll float out of the spa

Not only is the island of Madeira beautiful; Galomar is situated in an amazing position, the views are breathtaking. The staff were professional but friendly and very helpful. Everywhere was very clean. The food (buffet) was varied and plentiful. I did not use the spa facilities on this occasion, so I cannot comment but if the rest of the hotel is anything to go by, it will be excellent.

Very good 2 week January Ayurveda visit. They well tailored daily yoga sessions for an older inflexible man. Treatments/massages daily also excellent, helped with various niggles. Food was new for me, enjoyed it a lot. People all very helpful/friendly.

We had chosen the Panchakarma ten day/ eleven night program. Lovely place, friendly and service minded staff, daily medical follow up, great food and wonderful Ayurdvedic treatments.

This is a lovely modern hotel, that had gorgeous views and is adults only. The hotel rooms are quite large and modern, with plenty of power points! I had a view over the pool and the sea, which was lovely. Random bonus points for them - they have actual hand wash and body wash in the showers - many hotels just use bars of soap, which I hate, so that small detail was much appreciated. I was there on a Pilates wellbeing escape wherein I did an hour of Pilates a day. The Pilates takes place in the Galo Active gym, which is in the hotel next door (galomar is adults only and the gym is in Galosol, which is child friendly). Both the trainers I had were well trained and knowledgeable, however, I was quite surprised that I was only given one day to do reformer Pilates, when I thought the entire week would be reformer. I was happy to do mat for one or two days, but it ended as four days out of five as mat, which was disappointing. I don’t end up doing my 5th day which was supposed to be reformer, as it’s actually a bit much to do Pilates 5 days in a row. There’s no room service option, nor was there a coffee machine in my room. The restaurant and breakfast is fine, but nothing to get excited about. I was also put out when I asked reception if they could call me a taxi, and a local young man in a car that was not a taxi picked me up and charged me €35 to go 15 mins into Funchal. I used Bolt after that, and journeys into Funchal cost about €15. It would also be beneficial if they had water stations on each corridor - even though it’s probably perfectly safe, people don’t want to use to the bathroom tap to fill their water bottles. I also wasn’t mad about the spa. I had a few treatments that were fine, but I did have a very expensive pedicure that was supposed to include a foot mask and didn’t - it also went for 10 minutes shorter than the advertised duration. Overall, a “fine” stay.

Service was fantastic. Holiday, hotel was as advertised by Wellbeing Escapes. Did not dissappoint.

Helpful and friendly reception; excellent up to date meal variety. Shops, restaurants and attractive residential streets in easy walking distance

Lovely hotel, friendly staff, fabulous location. Clean and peaceful

Lovely hotel, clean and nice staff

Beautiful Hotel and great food.Great Customer service from EVERYONE at the Hotel.

Hotel was in a lovely location by the coast, where you can enjoy dips in the sea and explore the local area.it was beautifully decorated , rooms were spacious and great facilities. The staff could not of been more helpful, and the choice and quality of the food was delicious. Spa facilities and treatments were excellent and the yoga sessions which were a short walk away were very professional. Galomar resort caters for mainly couples, not for young children.. So relaxing we wish we had stayed longer. Fabulous holiday!!

Excellent hotel, friendly staff and fantastic location. One of the best spa experience I have had.

I had a really lovely time staying at the Sentido Galosol, the staff were always very friendly and helpful. The food was great. I had a sea view room and it was beautiful. The spa treatments I had during my stay were wonderful, the ladies there were great. The spa facilities I would highly recommend, especially the saunas and the relaxation area overlooking the sea. It was the relaxing holiday that I needed and will definitely recommend here to my friends and family.

Very good, well run hotel. Slightly disappointing in that they had allocated a twin room when a double had been booked. Setting is fabulous, spa is excellent and breakfasts are wonderful.

A very small and personal retreat in a great location. The consultations with the Ayurvedic Doctor and the treatments were excellent.

Nice hotel with great amenities and excellent service at the reception desk. Buffet breakfast is good too and they keep the rooms nice and tidy (they change sheets and towels everyday). Would recommend!

Lovely location and facilities, service and hotel team hit and miss, not always very helpful or friendly which was disappointing at times

Outstanding venue, beautiful views, wonderful staff. We loved this place especially as the on-site food and cocktails we very high quality and presented well. The number one aspect that made our vacation here was the Ashoka Spa which is located onsite. Having traveled a lot and used a number of spas, this is undoubtedly the best. If you go to this hotel you have to have a treatment at this spa - it will make your holiday. We fell in love and we are definitely going back.

Just perfect - friendly and welcoming, a place for both calm and entertainment / activity. Had everything I was looking for - really delivered and then some. Can't wait to go back.
