The view was the reason we choose this place. To our surprise, we never were bothered by the wind on the balcony. The unit is located on a part of the building that does not get much of the wind. We have had this problem with wind on the balcony with other ocean front rentals.
Also was nice was that there was a great city view. At night when its dark, and the ocean is not visible, we enjoy looking at the city, and the boats in the inner channels. Also can see the light show at night with the Hard Rock hotel from the balcony.
The balcony furniture was comfortable so we could stay out there for hours, unlike Walmart plastic furniture found at other rentals we had in the past. On a side note, everyone at the Hyde was professional with us.
