Is there some good basic wisdom from you all?? I know everyone is different but is there any general consensus? I would think that due to the heat that we would need an enclosed lanai to be able to spend time out there most or all of the year. I know I sound like such a rookie but we really are perplexed. Thank you in advance!!

I think it largely depends on where you're moving from. We moved from near Buffalo New York so we completely enjoy our screened linai I almost everyday of the year If only to sit out in the morning on those cold days. Even the cold days are much warmer than anything we're used to in the off-season!
We wouldn't think of enclosing our Lanai.
