Yep, impossible to go when it's in season. The hotel will be way stricter with parking then.
We were spoilt with our weekend accommodation. My brother checked out a 3 bedroom house nearby, also right on the beach, selling at 5 times the price of a luxury home in a good suburb, just because of its location and exclusive beach access. Crazy!
I'm not a fan of snobs! There are many really nice quiet beaches around.
