Spanish term or phrase: a cielo abierto
Generalmente las terrazas operan como extensiones espaciales de los lugares de comer o convivencia. A veces **a cielo abierto** y otras cubiertas o protegidas relativamente por pérgolas, en la semi-sombra, propician un ambiente informal y relajado.

Gracias nuevamente.

with no shade at all

Explanation:
Sometimes, with no shade at all, and others, shaded or somewhat protected..

a cielo abierto significa sin sombra o abierto a los efectos del sol (o la lluvia). "Uncovered" me vale también, pero depende del tono que quieres emplear.

Espero que te sea útil

If you wish to include a broader term, \"exposed to the elements\" could serve, but I think in this context we are referring to the sun, and shade from the same.
