i would say it is a pretty poor location - but it depends on what you want from your holiday. You may prefer not staying in the hustle bustle of Kuta but it will be easy enough to get there from Tanah Lot - only about 30-45 minutes depending on traffic.
I always split my Bali holidays between varying combinations of Sanur, Legian and Ubud - but mostly Ubud.
Problem is we are all different and to give you good advice we would need some more info about what you want.
