Outdoor rug(s) is the easiest option, upon which you can set 2 small seating groups, or one larger grouping with multiple seating and tables, outdoor lighting, outdoor bar, etc.
I would probably keep with the paint. I think indoor outdoor rugs need drainage underneath so they can dry out thoroughly, plus putting an enclosure around it will keep it partially shaded , not a good idea for carpet . But if you use a good quality out door paint , you could stencil a pattern or paint a rug !

I like exterior ceramic tile.
Hi Curtis, how about some 12"x 12" snap together tiles, then add a little water feature, like a tabletop fountain
These are two articles that show how we took our small and sad deck and turned it into a gorgeous entertainment space complete with a pergola. Hope they help with some inspiration! Hugs, Holly
