Vermelho Melides

This hotel has the kindest most attentive staff of any hotel I've ever stayed at. Never did they give a pretentious air but always cared for our every need and desire. The decor and architecture lures you in and helps to relax your mind transitioning you from the mundane to the fantastical. This state of mind is enhanced by the cocktails served at the bar and the gourmet food served in the restaurant. Each night I looked forward to taking a bath in our grand red tiled tub using the wonderfully scented bath products. My husband and I slept with ease in the soft bed. We woke early, went horse back riding and then explored hidden beaches mapped out for us by the hotel staff. I was sad to leave and hope to return soon.

Wow! My wife and I spent three days at the Vermelho as part of our honeymoon in Portugal. This was the last leg of our trip and without a doubt the best. Not only is the hotel spectacular, the staff is very friendly. The hotel went out of their way each day to make our day and night that much better than the last and we could not be more impressed. The hotel is immaculate and truly one of a kind. Perfectly located between 10+ beaches within a short drive. We were there in July which is peak tourist season in Portugal and all the beaches were far less crowded than what you see just outside of Lisbon, Algarve or in the US (where we are from). The breakfast was amazing and we ate dinner a few nights at the Xtian hotel restaurant which was equally as great. The pool is very relaxing and a great way to spend time. We will be coming back!

This hotel is most unique in its physical appearance and unique interior and exterior decorations The staff goes above and beyond to accommodate clients A highly recommended jewel where you can emerge yourself You never have to leave the grounds when on a short get away

Unbelievable. Incredible. Impeccable. Vemelho Melides is the definition of beauty, design, and service. I stayed here for 2 nights to celebrate my wife's birthday, and we loved every second of being on property. The town of Melides is very small but quaint and has a few things to do, and the beach nearby is a short and lovely drive and worth spending an afternoon at. Can't recommend this property enough, we will be dreaming about it for years to come, bravo VM team!

No notes! This hotel is incredible. The design is flawless. From the moment we booked our trip the concierge was in touch with us and could not have been more friendly and helpful -- and responsive! The rooms are beautiful and comfortable and the restaurant was delicious. Perfect for a 2-3 day getaway. We hope to be back soon!

Excellent in every way Would definitely return for a future stay

Every detail in this hotel is amazing. The rooms are unique and the staff very welcoming. Worth it!

Magical, unique, original decor made for a wonderful stay at Vermelho. The design and architecture makes it feel like a “home” not a hotel. The details in caring for visitors are so endearing. Great young hosts welcome you through the marvelous iron gate into a world of escape and serenity. For such a lover of art, unique interior decor and fashion the whole experience at Vermelho was sublime for me. The beautiful flowers and garden provide an idyllic backdrop to the restaurant dining room. Food was amazing as well as drinks. The complimentary breakfast was such a treat and the eggs Benedict scrumptious . The Bar area was one of my favorites , great drinks but the art and decor fabulous. The small detail of leaving a different tea kettle and cookies in our room in the afternoon so classy . Massage therapist Liliana was wonderful as well. The ladies in the reception area absolutely adorable and very helpful in giving good local information. They were very accommodating when I went shopping at Vida Dura last morning before check out and got lost in their amazing local pottery and items found all over the hotel and arrived after check out time. Mr. Louboutin thank you for your gift of Vermelho in my beautiful home country of Portugal. Now living in Southern California. Can’t wait to go back and buy a place in Melides so we can be closer to Vermelho. Muito obrigado por uma experiência inesquecível.
