We thoroughly enjoyed breakfast at Vermelho. Highlights included the array of Portuguese and French pastries that were brought to your table and the perfectly cooked a-la-carte eggs. Breakfast was delicious but also beautifully arranged, featuring tableware from Vida Dura.
Elisabeth Lincot's installation, Lagrima de Loros, graces an exterior hearth at Vermelho with glazed and colourful ceramic bird heads.
The open-plan common areas provide plenty of space to unwind and relax, including a living room with a cosy fireplace. Outside, the lovely terrace with a swimming pool offers a picturesque view of the Beja Cathedral's bell tower. The Mediterranean layout evokes the legacy of the region's traditional courtyards.
At Aljana, sustainability is at the forefront with eco-friendly practices such as selective waste collection, solar water heating, LED lighting, amenities in reusable bottles, and the promotion of towel reuse to reduce water waste.
In the morning, breakfast is mainly prepared with organic ingredients from the owner's family farm.
