The home side opened the scoring less than five minutes into the match as Pepe got forward to put a cross in for Karim Benzema, setting the French international up for a volley in from close range.
Cristiano Ronaldo had a chance to double the advantage inside the opening 10 minutes, curling the ball towards goal with a powerful free kick, but Vicente Guaita tipped it over.
Benzema did add a second just after quarter of an hour into the match, as Getafe left the striker in space in the penalty area, before Medhi Lacen missed a tackle, leaving the forward to slot the ball into the bottom corner.
The visitors started to see more of the ball as the first half progressed. Damian Suarez sliced the ball over, before a scuffed shot from Pablo Sarabia left Keylor Navas with a comfortable save.
Rafael Benitez's side soon found themselves back on the attack though, with Ronaldo flicking the ball on for Bale, who rifled it into the bottom corner for a third.
Ronaldo was on target himself just over two minutes later after using his pace to get past Roberto Lago, slicing the ball past Guaita after controlling a Toni Kroos through-ball.
