A vile beach resort within reach (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

achievable

'within reach' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'a vile beach resort' is the wordplay.
'resort' is an anagram indicator.
'vile'+'beach'='vilebeach'
'vilebeach' is an anagram of 'chievable'.
'a'+'chievable'='ACHIEVABLE'

(Other definitions for achievable that I've seen before include "can be reached" , "Able to be accomplished" , "Doable, winnable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
