Louboutin continues to expand in Portugal with two more private villas in Melides
After the opening of Vermelho, the French footwear designer known for his red-soled shoes, presents two new private homes in Melides. La Salvada and La Maison des Bateaux can now be rented, mirroring the exclusivity of design and architecture inspired by North Africa and also by the works of Mexican Luis Barragán.
La Salvada features 250 square meters spread over social areas and two suites decorated with art and personal pieces by the Franco-Egyptian designer. It has a swimming pool and open views of the sea. It costs 2,200 euros per night.
La Maison des Bateaux, with 150 square meters, highlights the rustic Alentejo in a typical restored house that stands out for the eccentric textiles in the decoration with Louboutin's signature, which pays special homage to Portuguese handicrafts. It accommodates up to six people and has a deck with a swimming pool facing the rice fields. The price starts at 1,700 euros per night.
Breakfast for two nights is served at Hotel Vermelho, and it is also possible to request a private chef, room service, or personal shopper.
According to Vera Gonçalves, the hotel's general manager: "These two villas are private design and decoration projects, which initially had no commercial purpose. The opening of these villas represents the opening of doors to the private world of Christian Louboutin, reinforcing the Vermelho brand as a symbol of creativity, authenticity, and exclusivity, always respecting what Melides has best to offer, its unparalleled natural beauty," she explained to Executive Digest.
