Hotel · Europe, International

Hôtel Vermelho, nestled in the tranquil village of Melides, Alentejo, Portugal, offers a luxurious escape just ten minutes from the Atlantic coast. Conceived by renowned designer Christian Louboutin, this Relais & Châteaux property features 15 uniquely styled rooms, suites, and villas. Its distinctive sky-blue façade, adorned with ceramics by sculptor Giuseppe Ducrot, hints at a baroque and joyful interior curated by Madalena Caiado. Guests can savor bistro-inspired Portuguese cuisine at Xtian restaurant, prepared with local artisanal ingredients. The hotel's design, incorporating red tiles from Azulejos de Azeitão and pieces from Louboutin's private collection, genuinely distinguishes this property as a design-led destination.
