Playa Blanca property advice

Hi Everyone

Completely new to this forum (which seems like a really lovely community) and looking for some friendly advice. We are a young family (British-Mexican living in another part of Mexico) looking to buy/build a vacation home (freestanding house ideally) on Playa Blanca. We have been shown a few plots of land on the beach that all look promising, but it would be really helpful to hear anyone's experiences of the pleasures/pains of building/owning/staying on the beach for long periods of time. We understand the legal considerations fairly well, but any other things to consider would be very gratefully received!

Thanks so much!

I personally would never own a free standing house in Mexico that I did not plan on living in as my primary residence.
