Vermelho Melides - Relais & Châteaux

We stayed for 24 hours and instantly relaxed - staff were extremely welcoming. Beautiful surroundings and very well kept. Our meal at the restaurant was exquisite - one of the best we’ve had in recent times. The lighting was fantastic and the music was just at the right tempo. Breakfast outside was delicious-great range of delights. We couldn’t fault anything. One thing I would point out is that Booking.com didn’t send us amended directions to reach the hotel as entry road was closed due to building works.

The best thing about VM is the staff. service is very good in every area. they give great ideas for day trips, beaches and restaurants. some might view the experience tranquil but it can also be viewed as "dead". bar was empty both friday and saturday and it is an incredible bar. biggest issue was the dining room. falls flat relative to the decor of the rest of the hotel and the food is merely decent. for the price, it needs to be amazing on all fronts

Beautiful hotel, lovely staff. Terrific location.

The restaurant was a disappointment. The decor was bland, and didn't match the splendor of the rest of the hotel. The food was bland and uninteresting. The restaurant did not match the caliber of the rest of the hotel.

Great Breakfast, nice gardens. Small but nice pool area.

Perfect breakfast on our patio

The most amazing property, experience, and staff that felt like family! Truly heaven on earth and the best hotel experience of all time.
