If a private lanai is a priority, one option might be to consider a neighborhood on the northside. We have a private (backyard) lanai thanks in part to mature landscaping and a deep corner lot on a quite interior street.
Not everyone would want this, to be sure. I bring that up because it disheartens me when posters seem to deride other peoples' home choices. Some people love the "buz" of the 'hood, others prefer more privacy. For some, money is no object and compromise is unnecessary. For some, cost is more of a consideration and tradeoffs make sense.
Can't we just explain our own preferences without stepping on our neighbors' toes?
