Enjoying the Sun at Alanda Marbella Hotel: The Benefits for Your Health and Well-Being
Marbella is synonymous with sun, sea, and a healthy lifestyle, and when you stay at our hotel, you can make the most of one of the city’s greatest treasures: the sun.
With an average of 320 days of sunshine a year, Marbella becomes an ideal destination for those seeking to relax, enjoy nature, and, above all, improve their health and well-being. Alanda Marbella Hotel, located in the heart of the Costa del Sol and just an 8-minute walk from Nagüeles Beach, offers you an idyllic setting to enjoy all the benefits of the sun.
Moderate sun exposure can have a significant impact on your physical and mental health. Here are some of the effects it has on your body:
Vitamin D Production: The Sun as a Natural Source
Vitamin D, also known as the “sunshine vitamin,” is crucial for the optimal functioning of our body. It helps maintain strong bones, strengthens the immune system, and supports cardiovascular health.
Spending just 15 to 30 minutes in the sun each day is enough for your body to produce the vitamin D you need. In Marbella, you’ll never have to worry about missing out on this.
Mood Enhancement and Mental Health
Sunlight has a direct impact on the production of serotonin, the neurotransmitter that regulates mood. Spending time in the sun in our gardens or by the pool can help you combat stress, anxiety, and improve your overall mood.
It’s no surprise that many people feel a boost of happiness when exposed to the sun; it’s simply part of serotonin’s natural effect, helping us feel calmer and more positive.
Quality Sleep
Enjoying the sun also contributes to improving the quality of your sleep. Sunlight exposure regulates your circadian rhythm, the internal clock of your body that influences sleep-wake cycles.
Spending time outdoors during the day helps your body better sync with the natural light-dark cycle, making it easier to fall asleep at night.
Skin Benefits
While the sun should be enjoyed with caution, moderate and controlled exposure can be beneficial for your skin. The sun has natural anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce symptoms of conditions like acne or psoriasis.
In short, at Alanda Marbella Hotel, we not only offer great facilities and services to our guests but also the perfect environment to enjoy the sun, whether by our pool or on the extensive beaches of Marbella and the Costa del Sol.
