I would too.
The drive is an easy one and is mainly on the freeway. There is small toll across the bridge.
Having a car is handy for sight- seeing.

While it is not on the beach it is only a few minutes walk.
It is about 15 minutes to the main restaurants, supermarkets etc along the flat.
If walked along the surfbeach it is a very scenic walk.
I last stayed there two weeks back.
One morning we walked down to the main centre for breakfast. walking along the beach is a great way to start the day.

If a regular hotel has a heated tropical swimming pool complete with fish that you can swim with, sandy beaches, Spa Treatment Rooms, a tube water slide.......
Though yes the car parking is conveniently accessed via the lift.
A car is handy...but not vital. Any tours will pick you up.
