TL;DR
The sea entry is gradual but depth increases fairly quickly (about 2m deep after 6 meters from shore); the pebble beach varies from fine to coarser gravel but has no sharp coral. Water shoes are recommended for elderly travelers.
Bring water shoes for elderly parents — they make the pebble beach entry much more comfortable.
Depth increases quickly near shore: about 2 meters deep roughly 6 meters from the water's edge. Water is clear and comfortably warm; the pebbles vary from fine to coarser but there's no sharp coral.
It's possible to negotiate a room change at the hotel reception, not necessarily requiring the extra payment agents mention.
