The view and location are great. Our daughter describes it as "A millennial's dream". The only drawback is that the TV service is internet stream only unless you bring a laptop and via HDMI can hook your laptop to the TV and view your cable service that way. But who goes to the beach to watch TV?!?! (Unless of course it's a very rainy day and there is something on (like a sporting event) that you might like to watch).
