The room was fantastic, really spacious and well presented. There was loads of wardrobe and drawer space, unlike many hotels we’ve stayed in. The bathroom was large and very clean and the shower was really powerful. The only downside was the shower curtain which wasn’t ideal, a glass curtain is preferable. Whilst the room was cleaned every day, you could choose to not have it cleaned and towels changed whenever you wanted in return for a €5 voucher to be used in the bars and restaurant.
Outdoor areas were well maintained and frequently swept and cleaned. The gardens are extensive and enable you to get away from other guests and have time to yourself if you wish to. The main pool area is well looked after and there are plenty of beds. The pool itself is really clean and well maintained, with great views over the hotel grounds. Our son loved playing in the pool all day.
Whilst there is a ‘kids club’, this is really low key. Children can come and go as they please depending upon whether they fancy joining the activities on offer. This means that you don’t have to sign them over for the day. There is no loud music or irritating stuff going on to annoy those trying to relax by the pool. For example, they may do some painting, make a cake, go for a picnic in the grounds, go and play tennis in the grounds etc. We’ve never used a kids club before because we don’t like to sign our son over for the morning / afternoon / day but he did enjoy popping in and out to suit himself.
The pool bar serves a good range of lunchtime snacks which are of a good quality. Service is quite slow, but that didn’t really bother us because we were on holiday and not in a rush. One major downside for us was the cost of drinks and ice creams etc. We found it really expensive. For example, a small can of Pepsi Max was €3.50 and a large bottle of water was €3.
We were half board. We often swapped our evening meal for lunch and went out to eat most evenings. The set menu in the hotel is very limited. However, the food is excellent quality but portion sizes quite small if you have a big appetite. As already mentioned, drinks and wine to accompany your meal are very expensive.
We are out most evenings and found that Uber service was great to and from the hotel. There are some great little restaurants not too far from the hotel by taxi. Reception staff were always happy to ring ahead and book for us.
The staff at the hotel are a credit to the company. They are helpful, attentive and friendly. Our experience was that nothing seems to be too much trouble for them.
We would definitely return, however probably on a B&B basis next time rather than half board in one of the villas.

Read MoreI stayed at this hotel for 7 nights towards the end of May. This was my first visit to Albufeira and the choice of hotels was a bit overwhelming - especially given the size of the resort but Topázio was a winner.
I was in room 312 which had a (distant) sea view but, importantly, no noise whatsoever from the Kiss nightclub opposite.
The room itself was compact but nicely done and kept very clean. My only frustrations were around the practicalities - for example no mirror in the bedroom (only mirror was in the bathroom with no plug anywhere close), no shelf in the bathroom, no full length hanging space, no drawers but it’s really not worth sweating the small stuff when you are on holiday.
The staff were all friendly, breakfast was lovely, pool area great and the location pretty much perfect.
I enjoyed my stay and would happily stay here again. Read LessSurby_Girl6/01/2019 -

We booked via alpha rooms to initially stay at the Velamar hotel which was unfortunately closed due to under occupancy. We were relocated to this hotel and it did not disappoint.
Check-in - we arrived quite late. Check in was quick and safety measures were reiterated following the new covid-19 guidelines.
Rooms - we had a standard double. It was spacious, bathroom was lovely and we even had a partial sea view!
Staff - the staff at this hotel have went above and beyond during our trip. The staff at this hotel work extremely hard and it doesn’t go unnoticed - keep up the fantastic work!!!
Pool/ beach - pool area was really well kept and it was nice to see it getting a little busier nearing the end of our stay. The beach is a short 5 minute walk from the hotel which was a huge plus for me!
This was our first visit to Portugal and it definitely will not be our last! We loved everything about the place and upon return will definitely be staying here!
Thanks for having us, it’s been a blast!

This meant the hotel was at an occupancy rate around 40% so lower than normal. So pool area very quiet although its in a tranquil, beautiful setting. No issue with loungers/ sun umbrellas and good service from the pool bar.
There's normally a shuttle bus but this wasn't running due to Covid so taxi to Carvoeiro (10 mins and around 10 Euros)
Hotel rooms great: huge beds, air con, mini bar and modern bathroom and most importantly for me it was very quiet.
Whole place spotless and staff on reception 24/7 and very helpful. Spa area was open with treatments available as well as steam room, sauna and hot tub.
Low occupancy meant no evening bar or restaurant but there's a great place next door, Brasserie Rosal, we ate there every evening (Two of the party vegetarians) and good service.
Carvoeiro nearest town with bars, shops and we had several enjoyable evenings there.
Would definitely stay at the Hotel again Read Less972trevorb9/27/2021 -

We stayed in an apartment on the top floor (didn’t realise that there was no lift) up 3 flights of stairs. Our balcony had a very tall palm tree which kept our room cool. There were lots of little birds living in that tree - which were fun to see close up.
The kitchen was equipped with just about everything you need to russle up a cooked breakfast or snack. No oven or frying pan ( apparently the smoke alarms kept being triggered by frying. We managed by keeping the window open and putting the extractor fan on.
We decided that we didn’t need housekeeping to come in every day - you can sign up to the green scheme.
Every where was perfectly clean and the surrounding gardens well maintained.
The bed(s) two pushed together were very comfortable. It would have been better to have some drawer units instead of open shelves. The wardrobe in our room had no doors and only a few hangers each side (would have been nice to close the doors and not have to see my clothes piled up on the shelves. There was a safe and some duvet for when the temperature dropped at night.
We had a small table and chairs inside and also two chairs and table on the balcony. No clothes airier to dry our swimming things though.
There are some small local supermarkets to purchase water and provisions just across the road.
There was a large bottle of water in our room (3ruros) if you need it and also a small pack of washing up liquid, sponge, dishcloth,bin liner , surface cleaner for €3 to start you off.
We didn’t realise that the pool was unheated- it was far too cold 🥶 for me to get in . I think it was in the shade most of the day too. There were sun loungers and umbrellas and towels provided
to use by the pool. There was always some chilled music playing on the terrace too.
We ventured out each day - walking into the old town or discovering new beaches. Sometimes we caught the (noddy) tourist train 🚂 if we got tired.
The strip is a short walk away and I recommend that you pick up a free map. You are spoilt for choice with all the bars and restaurants nearby.
I have to eat gluten free as I’m coeliac and the hotel do gluten free baguettes. Local restaurants serve gluten free food- I always do a search on Tripadviser and found some lovely local restaurants 😋
The staff on reception were always friendly and happy to answer any questions.
The Kiss nightclub just across the road never bothered us at all - maybe it has closed as it’s mid October .

The room offered wasn’t the best so when we asked to change the reception staff did so. The room was clean and modern and the housekeeping go above and beyond to help out. The breakfast has a good choice of food and drinks - although watch what you leave on the tables as the seagulls will make their move. Drinks at the hotel bar are reasonably priced and the cocktails are good. I would recommend getting your sunbed early as you have to get your own off a stack - slightly strange for a four star hotel. The pools are small and the location of the hotel doesn’t offer much variety of restaurants around it. Price to and from the airport in a taxi is just under €50. Read Less

Ironically there is noticeably a lack of Attention To detail.! The pool/bar restaurant has a very slow we waited an hour yesterday for a chicken sandwich and a Cesar salad. We have noticed that the food varies for example the Val De Rei sandwich lists the it has Pesto this was missing every time we ordered it and despite several requests it never appeared. Our previous visit we found that the service was very very good and predominately Portuguese staff they all spoke very good English, however there is an abundance on non speaking English staff, when there is a language barrier do not seek support from their Portuguese counterparts. I personally think this is an issue that needs addressing especially when there are unable to find your room number when you offer it at breakfast time. We managed to fit in a massage which was lovely, the hospitality etc perfect. We did not eat in the restaurant we found the menu a little boring with. I thing really tempting our taste buds. We hired the tennis court it cost 10 euro we thought this was a bit steep . Due to the location of the hotel unless you hire a car you are very reliant on taxis . These can work out quite expensive, so down load the Uber App you will save at least 4/5 Euros per trip. All in all this is a very tranquil setting and has many plus’s . However despite asking for a price from Raquel for next year (3rd) visit the figures haven’t been given to me 5 days after the request. Again it’s that non urgency that keeps creeping through.

Overall it was a good holiday. Positives were a very clean hotel and the staff were all very courteous and helpful. Breakfast was very good. The location was pretty good although too close to The Strip for us. About a 25 min walk to the old town which was much better. We walked along the main road to the old town but were told about another route where you could walk along the boardwalks on the beach which was much nicer. Plenty of restaurants to chose from. The negatives were not enough storage in our room just a small hanging space. That’s it! So more or less lived out of suitcase. Not enough sun beds at times for the size of hotel. So unfortunately had to reserve our beds early in the morning. Which we really didn’t want to do. Be warned this hotel allows stag and hen parties so this can be a bit rowdy at times. Smoking allowed in all outside areas even where you can eat. Not ideal. Showers ran hot and cold which was a shock to the system!! No courtesy room or shower available if you have a late return flight. Read Less

Read MoreWe have visited this hotel several times in the past, but for one reason or another, not for the last five years. In the meantime, the hotel had become a boutique hotel. After parking the car in the hotel car park, we were checked in quickly and efficiently by the staff and supplied with electronic room cards that worked first time, every time. Not always the case with some hotel’s room cards.
In the bedroom the air-con worked well and was fully adjustable. The bedroom was of a good size, as was the fully equipped en-suite. Tea and coffee making facilities were all available and a very good choice of TV channels to watch, along with a good internet connection.
One or two issues arose, the most noticeable was that the bathroom hand basin was stuck closed, that meant that after the first use of it, one was left with a basin full of dirty water and no way to get rid of it. Upon notifying reception, the matter was quickly sorted while we were having breakfast. Another issue was that the water flow into the basin was very slow, hardly more than a trickle. This did not appear to be improved over the course of our stay.
The breakfast was comprehensive, as it has been in the past, but the coffee making machine while it offers quite a range of coffees, needs to use a better brand of coffee in my opinion. The breakfast room is located on the top floor and affords uninterrupted panoramic views of the sea and countryside. You can enjoy your breakfast inside the room, or, on the terrace just outside.
Albufeira, with all that it offers, is a quick trip of 6km from the hotel and there are paid car parks that will enable you to walk directly into the middle of town. At 1 euro an hour, that’s inexpensive parking.
We would like to say that all the staff were most pleasant and eager to help. Overall, it was an enjoyable stay.

From the welcome we received at reception to the cleaners and breakfast/ pool bar staff was very nice and friendly. The room we had booked was the superior side seaview which is an east facing room with balcony which overlooked the pine woods next door and along the coast towards Queintera. The balcony got the morning sun which was nice to sit on with a coffee from the provided coffee machine. The room and en suite bathroom was spotless and cleaned every day.
We had bed and breakfast and so glad we did as buffet breakfasts are plentiful with lots of choice and served in the nice looking restaurant or patio between 7.30am and 10.30am so never crowded.
We had couple of lunches and a few drinks at the pool bar on days we were chilling at the pool which were just right and good value. We didn't eat there in the evening at all, there's no point and the choice looked quite boring as a set menu. There are so many good restaurants locally and its a short taxi ride to old town for some fab choices. My tip is don't bother about Half board, just pointless and limits you to the hotel when there is so much great choice in the area.
The pool was a bit cool at this time of year but great once you got moving. There were plenty of good quality sunbeds and everything was clean.
Short stroll from the back gate to the small local beach and short stroll to other beaches was nice. The Beach cafe was a fab lunch spot which we enjoyed a couple of time.
Locally some good bars and restaurants with good choice and some reasonable value menus. Enjoyed a few beers and wine especially when watching football in the local bars on the sunday. Old Town is a 30 minute walk or 5 minute taxi or Uber which cost about 5 Euros
Overall, a fab hotel in a good location. Loved our week. Thanks. 5 stars.

El personal agradable, la habitación magnífica, las instalaciones muy bien, especialmente la piscina y un desayuno muy variado. Sin duda, repetiríamos

A superior twin and a one bed apartment and we went bed and breakfast. First of all the rooms are OK but the superior twin is nowhere near enough if you’re staying for two weeks as there is literally no space in the room for two weeks worth of clothes. We have to live out of our suitcases for the whole two weeks.
The pool isn’t that big but it doesn’t have to be as the everyone doesn’t feel the need to swim. There were only about 5 people in the pool at any one time.
The buffet breakfasts were very nice and hot every morning, enough food to keep you going til tea time (if that’s your thing)!
One more thing. Pray you have an earlyish flight as if they can’t keep the room for you past your 12noon check out time, you either have to shower next to the pool (so everyone can see what you have or haven’t got) or you’re sitting in reception for a while although you can leave your luggage behind reception and go for a wander until your pick up time!
All in all a pleasant holiday apart from living out of our suitcases!

Beach 10 minutes walk away again spotless, quiet with a snack bar and restaurant. Very good restaurants within a very short walk, 2 mins from hotel. The Indian was excellent also pizzeria across the road and all very reasonably priced. A few restaurants along there also did a set menu €12.50 for 3 courses and a drink. We loved our stay here and would most definitely come back. Read Less

Read MoreWe stayed for 3 nights in early July 2019 in 2 rooms with 2 double beds (four single ladies travelling). The hotel had a lovely buffet each morning and although we didn't have time to use the pool, it looked clean and was always busy.
The facilities and rooms were clean and our rooms had a little kitchenette which although we didn't use, would be nice if travelling with kids. The coffee machine in the room didn't make very good coffee but the one at the buffet more than made up for it with about a dozen options for coffees and hot chocolates!
The only issue we had was with pool towels - you only get one per stay unless you pay 3 euro to replace so if you are staying longer take care to keep your pool towels clean.
The staff at the front desk was very helpful with recommendations on restaurants and making reservations for us.
Overall a very pleasant stay! Read LessAndrea P7/25/2019Fabulous find ! We booked this charming hotel for a mini break , and it didn’t disappoint at all .

We arrived late morning, and the staff were most helpful, allowing us to check in pretty much immediately .
We had booked a ‘ standard room’ which did not have a balcony , for a 3 night stay , this was not an issue . The room was huge , lovely comfy beds , great quality bed linens and towels , excellent toiletries in the shower room , mini bar , tv with English channels and SPOTLESSLY clean !
The hotel has a small garden with a pretty pool and an outdoor bar area , plenty of sun beds , the pool though , was freezing cold !
There is an indoor bar area too , with a happy hour , breakfast is served on the top floor, with the opportunity to sit outside , as we did to enjoy the views .
Excellent breakfast selection , good coffee, fresh orange juice , fresh fruit selection , cold meats and cheeses , cereals ,fabulous bread and pastry offerings , as well as the ‘ usual suspects ‘ , bacon , sausages , beans , scrambled eggs etc .
The staff here were delightful , friendly , helpful and welcoming .
Just outside the hotel , turning either left or right , will lead you to a choice of bars and restaurants , and a pleasant 15 minute walk to the lovely beach area too !
The only slight downside is , the road it’s situated on is a relatively busy road , not at the time , but there is traffic noise, in our room , without a balcony, the triple glazing was very , very effective and we could not hear a thing, if you opened the window though , it could be heard at times , but don’t let this put you off, we would certainly return in a heartbeat !

Favourite restaurant Casa Del Mar, old town.
Also loved the Beach Cafe, close by.
Preferred old town to new, short taxi ride away.
Wild & Co also great for food in the New town.
Lovely pool but freezing, not a problem just a shock.
Lovely choice got breakfast.
We were a group of 8 girls so had to pay a deposit incase of any breakages or disturbance, we did neither so no issues getting the deposit back.
Used airport taxi transfer which were cheap, on time and nice safe drivers. Read LessKerry L5/23/2022Two weeks away The hotel is adequate. We had a two week family holiday and booked two rooms.

Read MoreOttimo hotel di nove piani, abbarbicato sul dislivello che caratterizza la città. La reception è all'8° piano, ci si può arrivare in auto per le contorte stradine e scaricare velocemente i bagagli; il parcheggio gratuito si trova al max a 10 minuti a piedi. Camminando un po' all'interno del 5° e 6° piano dell'hotel si giunge all'altro ascensore che va dal 6° piano in giù fino al cuore di Albufeira, dove si trova una miriade di negozi e ristoranti. La spiaggia si raggiunge in cinque minuti. Le stanze hanno tutte un'impronta moderna e sono quasi completamente bianche. Non sono molto ampie e mancano i classici armadi (almeno in alcune), in certi casi si fa difficoltà a trovare il posto per sistemare vestiti e bagagli. Scordatevi i bagni tradizionali, doccia e wc sono in locali separati e delimitati da vetri offuscati mentre il lavabo è in camera. Abbiamo soggiornato in due camere, la prima, che dava sulla piscina del 6° piano, era minuscola mentre la seconda, al 4° piano, era decisamente più ampia ed aveva una bella terrazza con i lettini. Spettacolare la terrazza al 6° piano, dove si trovano il ristorante/bar, la piscina ed un discreto numero di lettini. Questo è il posto più bello e rilassante. Buona la colazione ma attenti ai gabbiani, che sono veramente sfacciati: è bastato qualche secondo di assenza per ribaltare tutto quello che c'era sul tavolo. In tv mancavano i canali italiani e, nonostante la segnalazione ed il cambio di camera, nemmeno l'ombra.
Ci siamo trovati bene ma era fine aprile. Con il pienone dell'estate, vista la struttura dell'hotel e l'ubicazione (in camera ci sono anche i tappi per le orecchie), forse è meglio trovare una sistemazione più tranquilla. Non abbiamo usato la spa. Read LessRoby_62_195/05/2022 -

The reception staff are so welcoming and knowledgeable. When we arrived to our room my sisters reaction was fantastic , she said oh my gosh, that view is amazing. Our room was beautiful with everything you could possibly need and we were also provided with pool towels. The breakfast is very nice with a good choice of hot and cold food and good coffee. There is a lovely gate you can go through to access the private beach about a 10 minute walk away. There are some good restaurants and bars near by. This is truly a beautiful hotel and the fact that it is adults only is a bonus. We also had the most amazing massage upstairs in the most gorgeous room overlooking the sea.
