It's been 3 years since we have been there, I think we were in building 13 (?) on the 3rd floor. The balcony was covered and a pretty good size. We could (and did) sit out in a rainstorm. We had a gorgeous straight on view of the ocean. I know many here say that the only view of the ocean is in the rooms in the Inn, but that is not accurate. I actually think we had the room you see on the website, as we had windows across the front and wrapped around the side of the unit. Glorious!!!
