Which room to book at Sentido Galomar
The Double Room Sea View Balcony. It has the same balcony, twin beds made up as a king and fittings as the Garden View and Side Sea View doubles, but the balcony faces the open Atlantic rather than the garden or the sea at an angle. On a cliff hotel chosen for the water below, that view is the stay. For one night on Tuesday 8 June 2027 it was €261 for two, with breakfast at the Atlantis.

Prices are a guide from our last check, not live rates.
Why this one
The four doubles share one fit-out: a balcony or terrace, central air conditioning, blackout curtains, a 40-inch TV, a kettle with tea and coffee, a safe and a bathtub or a shower. What changes is the outlook and, at the top, the bed. The Garden View rooms face the garden on the west side, the Side Sea View rooms see the water at an angle, the Sea View rooms face it, and the Cliff rooms, on floors 0 and -1, sit very close to the cliff edge with a king-size bed rather than twins made up as one.
For one night on 8 June 2027, for two, the Side Sea View was €222 room only and the Sea View €261 with breakfast at the Atlantis, which is the adults-only breakfast room and set into the cliff above the sea. Since that €39 a night buys breakfast for two as well as the full view, the Sea View is the better value of the two. It is the cheapest room that looks straight out to sea, the reason to book a clifftop hotel, and the Cliff rooms add the edge itself and a single mattress for those who want them.
- Ask for
- If the cliff edge or a single mattress matters most, ask about the Double Room Cliff Balcony, on floors 0 and -1. The hotel will also prepare a room to ECARF allergy-friendly standards on request, and keeps one accessible room in the Side Sea View category.
- Avoid
- The Double Room Garden View Balcony, on the west side of the building facing the garden, if the sea is why you are booking.

A clifftop adults-only building with a seawater pool, sea-view saunas and the Atlantic at the foot of the lift, for couples happy to share dinner and the lido with the family side of the resort. Check availability for the Double Room Sea View Balcony.
