A treasure in Melides

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 29 Jul 2024
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.
Date of stay: June 2024
Room Tip: Ask for directions to the hidden beaches!!!

        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!

        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!

        Room tip: If you are even considering coming and see a room with availability- book it now, there are less than 15 rooms on site!

        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!

        Room tip: If you do not rent a car, be sure to book your taxis with the concierge so they can pre-arrange for you

        Absolutely gorgeous in every way. We loved our stay and were just so sad to leave this beautiful Oasis! Lovely people, food, setting, and of course the amazing hotel itself. Everything was thoughtful and beautiful as you would expect from such an artist. Close to stunning beaches and in a charming town. We hope to be back someday. Thank you Vermelho for a perfect escape...and our straw hats!

        Room tip: Town is very small and it took us a minute to find it but once you do you will not want to leave.
