We use our balcony a lot especially if we are staying at our favourite hotel as the room we have overlooks the beautiful garden.

We will sit out on it when we get back from breakfast, from the beach, when I need to paintball on my lip gloss for the evening and when we come back from our evening out. If the hotel have put on a dance show, we can sit out and watch it for free.

It was in a great place Danny. Dimos studios, Kassiopi, Corfu. I'm sure we'll be back there some day but will have to go diy as the major tour operators don't feature it any more.

Hi when were self catering we eat our breakfast and lunch on the balcony alot, also may sit out there a bit when we go back to the room in the late afternoon and sometimes when we come back at night. This yr I'm assuming well do the same, maybe even use it more if we put our baby bed then sit out, but I'm going to request a ground floor room and hopefully have a terrace/patio as I'm worried our little one could fall off a balcony!

Glynis - that looks like a lovely peaceful scene.

Yes we love to sit out on the balcony, Most recent favorite being Cancun as we had a fridge and mini bar well stocked daily so it was great to watch the sun go down with a cold beer and some snacks.

:( Its awful when you get a rubbish view tho!

We have not been to lucky with views over the last few years so lets hope were not disappointed on the first of October ;)

I like to sit & read, have a tea or coffee, & if there is a view I just sit!
Here's a few from the last 12 months or so,

View of Monemvasia rock (look it up if you've never heard of it, it's an amazing place, the old town inside the fortified walls is on the other side of the rock!)

The first thing I do after checking in at the hotel is open the balcony door to see what sort of view there is. Personally it's a major issue for me as I feel it's part of the holiday to sit out on the balcony/terrace and have a drink or just peruse the surroundings. Just thinking about it.... watching the sunset and people passing by all dressed up ready to go out, lovely.....and the photos are great everyone......Caz

Another view- from our balcony in la Carihuela at Easter this year- should say that it was a standing room only balcony, almost non-existent really.
