Ours faces WSW and we love it. We just added a pool and enjoy watching the sunsets and having the pool in the sun most of the day. We do have a few cantilevered umbrellas for shade. Also had the 20/20 screen on the birdcage that knocks down the sun more than I expected. We had coolaroo shades on the lanai but installed the power shades from Shade Brothers once the pool was finished and those are great from 4 to 7pm when the lanai gets full sun. It's all personal preference but we are happy with our decision.
