We chose this unit because of the 2 beds in one room (just felt safer with our small kiddos in the room with us) but still having the ability to put them to bed and go out and watch tv for a bit. The proximity of this unit is great for walking to the beach! We got a lot of use out of the beach umbrella and towels. There were no kid toys but we left some sand castle stuff we bought if anyone can use it! During the earlier part of the week we were good with the parking, but toward the weekend the parking became so busy we had some trouble even getting into our designated spot. You honestly don't "need" a car for this location, but we did due to having our kiddos with us.
