Topazio Vibe Beach Hotel & Apartments (Albufeira, Portugal)

You can enjoy the warm Portugal sun in the lovely pool area Topázio offers its guests. You can sit around and soak in the rays or head in for a dip. There are plenty of lounges and chairs to go around.

Topázio is in a great spot – a short walk will lead you right into the main strip. Or, if you’d rather head to the beach for the day, that’s within walking distance as well. There are many shops and restaurants right across the street, either.

The rooms are spacious, with tasteful furnishings throughout. They’re cleaned on a regular basis, as well as restocked with fresh towels. The beds are made fresh daily, too.

Though the hotel does offer Wi-Fi, the signal can be pretty slow and unstable. You may find yourself getting frustrated because it tends to disconnect often, making it difficult to find a good signal.

Though the hotel offers the convenience of having a pool on site, it can be very cold, despite the warm Portugal sun. Also, it could benefit from being cleaned more often, especially because it gets used constantly.

Because there’s a nightclub directly across the street, you may deal with some noise, especially during the night on the weekends. If this is an issue, you may want to ask for a room further back.
