I'd go for the resin, I've got one that we use outside occasionally and it's pretty durable. Don't know about full time, but it's worth a shot. I've also seen a lot of restaurants use the laminate bamboo flooring as a counter top and it looks nice, but again, don't know how it would do outdoors. Good Luck, I'd love to see pictures of what ever you decide!! What brand resin do you use? I'm out in TX, so its pretty humid.
