I’m sure the posts you have read are regarding living too close to any beach, not to any specific beach.
Probably a number of reasons
When it rains in Spain, excess rainwater is designed to flow downwards, beach front areas are low, so they tend be the areas that flood when it rains. But adverse weather usually comes in from the sea and the sea and after bad storms, walkways etc have been ripped apart from sea/storm damage.
This area is windy, so buying close to a beach will mean a constant battle sweeping up sand from your property.
Most importantly is the summer tourist invasion. Your quiet little home, will be surrounded by holiday home owners visiting for their holidays or renters who have no respect for peoples property .You could find yourself sandwiched between people who just want to party all night long.
There is an influx of holiday makers in August, so parking spaces are a premium. You could pop out to buy a loaf of bread in July and not be able to park anywhere near your property until September. The Spanish holiday makers drive to their holiday homes and don’t usually more their vehicles until it’s time to go home. Even the roads leading to beach areas can be chaotic during the summer.
If you are in a beach area it’s likely that the bars restaurants and supermarkets are also seasonal and everything could be closed during the winter months.
All above really is worst case scenario, but I would not contemplate buying near a beach without a lot of homework and most definitely visiting the areas in Jan/Feb and again in August.
