If you have a Camelia, isn't that the vinyl sided Gardenia? We put Custom Windows stackable sliders on the outside. They don't even take the screen down until the windows come in so you don't lose any use of your lanai. We don't have a huge lanai just the standard size so we open sliders to bedroom and sliders to livingroom. On the hottest days we put fans on in the lanai turning clockwise. Then put the bedroom and living room fan on counter-clockwise and the a/c circulates great. If you have a larger lanai you may want to put in a Mitsubishi split A/C. Go over to Custom Windows showroom and see all options and they know current building code because they will pull the permit, not you.
