August is drawing to a close and, with it, we bid farewell to the summer holiday season. As September approaches, it’s natural to wonder whether it’s possible to live all year round as if we were on holiday… And the answer is ‘yes’, provided your home has the exceptional facilities to make it possible. Swimming pools, rooftop terraces, golf simulators, lap pools and chill-out areas turn everyday life into a little private resort, without having to pack your bags or even leave the building. Find out what you need to ensure that summer (and the good life) never come to an end!
Living in the great outdoors: health benefits
We all know how it feels after a weekend by the pool or an afternoon on a terrace with friends: a clearer head, a lighter mood and a deeper sleep. It’s no coincidence. Spending time outdoors and in open spaces reduces stress levels, helps you switch off mentally and improves the quality of your rest. Exposure to natural light helps regulate our circadian rhythms, and the simple act of moving around in an open environment – whether swimming a few lengths, playing a hole on the putting green or stretching your legs on a calisthenics circuit – means that physical activity stops feeling like a chore and becomes a pleasure.
What’s more, these spaces are also social spaces. A barbecue on the rooftop, an afternoon’s game of padel with the neighbours or an impromptu dip in the pool with the kids are the perfect excuse to socialise – something that has a direct impact on our emotional wellbeing. Living surrounded by these kinds of spaces is not a superfluous luxury: it is a direct investment in quality of life.
The problem is that, for years, enjoying all this meant booking a hotel, packing your suitcase and waiting for the summer holidays. Today, more and more residential developments are turning that equation on its head and investing in exceptional facilities that enhance your day-to-day life: instead of going to find the resort, the resort comes to you. And it stays all year round.
What to look for in a home where you can ‘feel like you’re on holiday’ every day
If you want your next home to give you that feeling of being on a permanent holiday, there are a number of exceptional facilities that make a real difference to your day-to-day life, not just in the brochure:
- Swimming pools (for adults, children or heated), for a dip after work or a family outing at the weekend.
- Rooftops that maximise the usable floor space of the home and offer the best views from the building, perfect for unwinding at sunset.
- Golf simulators and putting greens, for those who want to practise their swing without leaving home, come rain or shine.
- Swimming lanes, ideal for keeping up your exercise routine without having to rely on an external gym.
- Chill-out and barbecue areas, designed for socialising outdoors with neighbours, family or friends.
- Calisthenics circuits, gyms, spas and saunas, which round off the holistic wellbeing experience within the residential complex itself.
The more of these amenities a development offers, the more likely it is that ‘holiday mode’ will cease to be a one-off experience and become part of everyday life.
Exxacon’s special promotions where the holidays never end
At Exxacon, we know how important it is to switch into ‘holiday mode’ outside the summer months, and some of our developments are the perfect example of this, with exceptional facilities that will make you feel as though you’re staying at an exclusive resort!
Alura Living is committed to wellbeing in all its forms: it features a swimming pool for adults and children, a chill-out area with a barbecue for summer evenings, an outdoor calisthenics circuit for working out in the fresh air, an indoor gym, a spa and, for golf enthusiasts, its very own simulator. It’s the perfect development for anyone looking to unwind without leaving the residential complex.
Isidora Living Las Mesas takes the experience to new heights – quite literally – with a rooftop that’s unique in the area, featuring a hot tub and barbecue area, as well as a swimming pool, indoor gym and sauna. An afternoon out with views that are every bit as good as any hotel rooftop.
Alonis Living is probably Exxacon’s most comprehensive development to date, as it boasts a rooftop with an infinity pool, separate adult and children’s pools, a heated swimming lane so you can keep up your swimming routine all year round, a putting green with mini-golf and a gym. A true vertical resort.
Entrenúcleos Living, for its part, is all about an active and social lifestyle: 3 swimming pools, a padel court, a barbecue area and a gym… all designed to ensure that sport and socialising with friends are part of everyday life.
Four different ways of looking at the same thing: that home can — and should — also be the place where we unwind, look after our health and enjoy our free time.
Living as if you were on holiday, without having to pack your bags
Ultimately, it all comes down to this: if your home offers a swimming pool, a rooftop terrace, green spaces, outdoor sports facilities and places to socialise, you don’t need to wait until July or August to feel like you’re on holiday. You have it every day, just a lift ride away.
If you’re considering taking the plunge and moving into a home that brings this experience into your everyday life, we can help you find the Exxacon development that best suits your needs and offers the exceptional facilities you deserve – whether that’s a rooftop terrace with views, a swimming pool for the whole family or your very own private putting green.
