We have just stayed at Awelfryn at Newborough on Anglesey, it is a great little site and almost fits your criteria. Walk to one of the best beaches on Anglesey is about 30 minute walk, pub and shop in the village a 10 minute walk away , the site isn't completely covered by Wi-Fi, but there is wi-fi at the house and the kids can sit in the conservatory and use it, maybe a chance to compromise and wean them off a bit. Great views too.
Darfan Rhos is in a great location, but we found the owners a bit uppity and they have some of the strictest sets of rules I have ever encountered, we had a friend who was staying elsewhere on Anglesey come and pick us up and because we had a fair bit of fishing gear went to let him onto site, they wanted to charge us a day visitor fee for him to drive to our pitch and drive out again.
For Anglesey it's expensive, they charge for Wi-Fi and the kids wouldn't be included in the pitch fee. But the site is well kept and secure with keyfob entry.
If the proximity to the beach is crucial to you and you can put up with the foibles then it is OK, but we wouldn't ever stay there again.
Bodfan Farm at Rhosneiger again is great but won't tick all your boxes, no Wi-Fi(I have stayed on a fair few sites on Anglesey and few have had genuine site wide Wi-Fi), but loads of room for the kids to run around and play. about 10 mins walk to a brilliant beach, and on top of that it's cheap. The beauty of Rhosneiger apart from the fantastic beach is that the village has plenty there, a chippy, numerous places to eat, a couple of grocery stores and the usual seaside shops. Most other villages in Anglesey don't have much.
As you have found most of the Welsh mainland beach resorts are busy, whereas Anglesey is much quieter.
Maybe the solution to your Wi-Fi dilemma is to get a 3 or giffgaff(on o2) sim(check it will work there and buy an all you can eat data add on and let the kids tether to it.
Anglesey as you know is a wonderful place and well worth the visit especially if you get some decent weather.
