If the lanai is facing south at first you may think it will be hot but in the summer the sun is at much higher angle and the roof will shade most of it, in the afternoon the sun will get under the west side a bit, but you just need to move over to east side in more shade.

In the winter the sun at a lower angle will get under the roof more warming the area.
