Vermelho is a five-star boutique hotel located in the village of Melides — the brainchild of designer Christian Louboutin, who first fell in love with the village over a decade ago. Entering through Vermelho's age-worn wooden doors feels like stepping into an art gallery adorned with an eclectic collection of antiques, curious objects, and art. Each of the 13 rooms has been individually designed, providing a touch of Portuguese craftsmanship that makes it truly special. There's a heated pool, the Indian Lounge, the acclaimed Restaurant XTian led by Chef David Abreu, and the Vermelho Bar — clad in hammered silver leaf.
