In the picturesque coastal city of Funchal, amidst its timeless beauty and vibrant street life, sits a modern-day icon - the Pestana CR7 Hotel. A collaboration between the global football sensation Cristiano Ronaldo and the Pestana Hotel Group, this establishment promises an experience like no other. Topping this luxurious abode is its crowning glory: Off-Side, a rooftop bar that offers a blend of style, sports, and scintillating views.
As the name suggests, Off-Side takes inspiration from the world of football, yet its appeal is universal. From the vantage point of the rooftop, patrons are treated to panoramic views of Funchal's azure waters, bustling harbor, and the iconic CR7 Museum. There's an unmatched thrill in sipping a cocktail while overlooking the city that birthed a football legend.
Staying true to its sports-centric theme, Off-Side boasts a décor that's both sleek and athletic. Amidst the plush seating, modern fixtures, and ambient lighting, subtle nods to football are evident. However, the design never overpowers; instead, it seamlessly integrates with the sophisticated aura of the bar, making it equally enticing to football fans and the uninitiated.
A visit to Off-Side isn't just about the views and vibes; it's a culinary journey. The menu celebrates both local Madeiran flavors and international favorites. Tapas, inspired by global cuisines yet infused with a Madeiran touch, make for delightful accompaniments to the beverage selection.
Speaking of beverages, the bar impressively scores with its diverse offerings. From classic cocktails and a curated wine list to special drinks inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo's career milestones, there's a unique blend of tradition and innovation in every glass.
The energy at Off-Side is palpable. Whether it's the live screenings of major football matches, DJ nights, or impromptu parties, the rooftop comes alive with fervor and excitement. It's not just a place to relax but a venue to feel the pulse of modern Funchal.
Off-Side at Pestana CR7 Funchal is more than just a rooftop bar—it's an emblem of Funchal's modern spirit, a tribute to its most famous son, and a testament to the city's evolving landscape. It brings together the best of sports, style, and socializing.
