It sounds like it is but in reality most patio villas have solar shades or blinds and are quite private if you want them to be. It's the front lanai facing the street that allows you to see and quickly interact with all your neighbors that is so wonderful.
We moved but I've been thinking about adding a little front wall at our entrance to put a seating area to try and get some of that back. Before everyone had backyards, the veranda was where you sat and socialized and people interacted with passing neighbors less when we moved to the backyard.
