Vermelho Melides

Here you may lose yourself admiring the hand-sculpted façade by Italian sculptor Giuseppe Ducrot. You may lose all sense of time as you gaze at the details of the artisanal local tiles or at the frescoes by Greek artist Konstantin Kakanias. You may be tempted to open each door created by the Grenadian carpentry Los Tres Juanes, marvel at unique pieces such as our Klove mural chandelier or even be enticed by a cocktail served at our bespoke silver bar made by Villareal goldsmiths. Eclectic, maximalist and daring; Christian Louboutin’s essence oozes throughout each space and passage of our intimate and welcoming boutique hotel in Melides. Over a dozen winters in Alentejo became an inspiration…

Fall head over stilettos with Vermelho Melides, the first-ever hotel from shoe designer Christian Louboutin. Situated in the fashionable village of Melides just minutes from the Alentejo coast, this 13-room hotel provides well-heeled travelers with a playfully extravagant retreat featuring elaborate wall frescoes, plaster sconces, and colorful Azulejos tiles, as well as furnishings, antiques, and art objects from the owner’s private collection. Enjoy a tipple at the hand-forged silver bar before dining on artisanal Portuguese fare in Xtian restaurant.
