I've seen the brick layed on the exterior concrete, but why not tile it? Anyone have the experience?

At our house in CA we had ceramic tile installed on the entry concrete that is open to the weather. Many of our neighbors did also. Looks nice, not a problem with being outside (temp rarely gets to freezing in the winter).

I think, but am not positive, that deed restrictions preclude you from putting tile, pavers or even paint beyond the overhang. You may tile your lanai, and front entryway but not the sidewalk. You may not put pavers or paint the driveway of your CYV.

I've tiled my lanai, front entry, garage and outside patio under a pergola. It's not difficult and the results are terrific. Just three things to remember: use tile which will not become slippery when wet, use only medium to dark colored grout which doesn't show the dirt, and use a quality cement that will withstand outdoor conditions.

It is very important to make sure one uses a non slippery tile. When tile gets wet, it is a bear. Falling on your butt or worse is a distinct possibility. Be careful what type of tile you purchase and make sure it is non-skid.
