There aren't enough fans to make it tolerable. We tried to let the house AC assist, but the unit never cut off. IMHO, you need some type of air. I don't know about taxes, etc. I have read lots of opinions, not sure which is correct.
No, we do not live here full time but I do know it gets very warm, understated, during the summer months. But we have had our Lanai temp registering up in the 80's and 90's and with the two ceiling fans going and we also have Cool-la-roo blinds on our Lanai to cut down on the direct sun coming in, it is quite tolerable to us. My understanding that heat is not the major problem, but the high humidity is. One day we will experience the summer in all its glory in Florida.
