A famous French shoe designer opening a hotel in Portugal… it sounds a bit strange, doesn’t it?! But Christian Louboutin has loved coming to the west coast in the Alentejo below Lisbon for years and also has his own home there. So it was a logical step to unleash his creative brain on a new small-scale luxury hotel in authentic Melides.
He created a beautifully eclectic place where his love of art and travel come together in perfect balance. Of course, with every comfort and quality.
This Local Hideaway represents the Douro Valley at its best and is its personification. A feast for the senses and absolutely worth a stay. A fantastic wine estate, for connoisseurs, epicureans and outdoor enthusiasts. Combine your citybreak in Porto with trip to the Douro Valley and you have the best of both worlds!
The surrounding area of Granada is a fairytale of pretty villages and stunning countryside, a true paradise for walkers and nature lovers. A perfect base for both visiting the city (half an hour’s drive) and enjoying the natural beauty of the Sierra Nevada is this charming boutique eco-hotel. Beautiful, comfortable rooms, a lovely garden with a refreshing pool and a delicious, super-sized breakfast.
A beautiful old Andalusian estate, including chapel, large patio and stables was transformed into a fantastic hideaway. And only half an hour from Granada. Spanish life is delightful at this Cortijo and I definitely recommend spending a few days here, to unwind but also to explore the beautiful surroundings!
