In the village of Melides on the Alentejo coast, Vermelho is Christian Louboutin’s maximalist boutique hotel, with 13 individually designed rooms and suites, two villas, the Xtian restaurant and a spa.
Vermelho is the boutique hotel created by Christian Louboutin in the village of Melides, on the Costa Alentejana near the ocean. Entered through historic wooden doors, its interiors are maximalist and artful, curated by Louboutin himself, with frescoes, handpicked artworks, antiques and local Alentejo tiles, and 13 individually designed rooms and suites, each with its own tonalities. There are also two villas, La Salvada with a rooftop terrace and La Maison des Bateaux overlooking the rice fields. Dining centres on Xtian, the Portuguese restaurant built on Alentejo seasonal produce and local artisanal tableware. There is a pool and a wellness sanctuary built with stones from ancient churches, blending French cosmetics and Indian mindfulness. A member of Relais & Chateaux, it suits couples and design-minded travellers who want a characterful, art-filled base in a quiet coastal village.

This suits you if you want a characterful, art-filled base in a quiet coastal village. Settle into one of the 13 individually designed rooms, take in the frescoes and artworks, dine at Xtian on Alentejo produce, and unwind at the pool and the wellness sanctuary. The ocean and Melides village are close by. It is intimate and maximalist rather than a big resort. Best for couples and design-minded travellers who want somewhere truly distinctive.
