I am looking to buy a high-end lanai set, prefer aluminum table or consider tile (no glass or iron tops) and a minimum of 4 swivel chairs (or maybe 6). Would like a round table, or possibly an oval one, but not a huge table. Hoping to find someone that is moving and needs to sell a really nice patio/lanai set in like new condition. Please message me if you have one to sell. Thank you in advance.

FYI, Lowes did have a sale on a seven piece tile table set that was smaller but similar to what I had for $699.

Try Perfect Porch on Route 441/27 in Lady Lake. We bought our outdoor furniture there in 2016 and we still love it.

If you want high end outdoor furniture that will last the test of time from Florida heat and humidity, look closely at poly wood patio furniture. There are also some decent knockoff imitations at a more affordable price point.

We bought an outdoor wicker Lshape from Palm Casual in 2010. In 2014 we added a contrasting fabric loveseat that matches the original.
In 2023 our lanai space doubled and wanted to add to the Lshape, but thought it would be impossible.
Because PC make their own products, they matched the same material for cushions even 13 years later it’s hard to tell what was 2010 furniture and what was added. One won’t find that at any other retailer.
We do have Plywood on the pool deck, which does very well in the hot sun and rain. But polywoods weight makes it difficult to pull out a chair just to sit down. We have since changed to the newer polywood style that has outdoor fabric for seats, making more comfortable and half the weight

Another recommendation for Palm Casual. Excellent service and quality. They're off the Turnpike at St Rd 50.

We are BIG fans of Polywood, especially their "deep seating" options. Even our bright red Adirondacks have not faded in the hot/humid East Tennessee summers.
However, for what it sounds like you are seeking I would consider Frontgate, Ballard Designs, Lagoon (lagoonfurniture.com), or Seaside Casual (seasidecasual.com).
Hope you find that which you seek!

That is a very good point.
The chairs in our lanai are light and easy to move around.
We also have two chairs and ottomans in front of our house. Since our house faces east, it is very nice to sit in front and read in the evening.
Lightweight chairs would probably get blown around if we had them in front of our house, so we have the heavyweight polywood chairs instead.

For higher end, Patio Style in Winter Park is very nice and has an excellent show room. Buying patio furniture there is like buying living room furniture used to be. They have a wide selection of fabrics for all their furniture. Family owned and nice to deal with.

Restoration Hardware in Tampa has high end outdoor furniture including powder coated aluminum.

Another recommendation for Palm Casual. Excellent service and quality. They're off I-75 at St Rd 50.
Actually, Palm Casual is located just west of the Florida Turnpike on Hwy 50...not I-75.
Also, regardless of the manufacturer, there are 2 things to insist upon if you want outdoor furniture that will last: Aluminum frames, and Sunbrella fabrics. Steel frame furniture will rust, and dissolve into junk in a few years. Sunbrella fabrics have a proven record of withstanding harsh sunshine and all types of weather for many years. Cry once.

Would recommend Palm Casual. We have Cast Aluminum furniture with sunbrella cushions made by them. Had a huge selection of fabric to pick from! It's been 6 years and still all look brand new!

I have an outdoor dining set from Costco. Costco and Sam’s club have outdoor furniture from Sun Villa, any thing goes wrong with it, just return it to the store. Costco delivers right to your lanai and sets it up.

We are happy with our Palm Casual furniture too. Our only complaint is keeping the sunbrella fabric clean when it’s outdoors (not in lanai). Nothing completely removes the mold and dirt stains that we have on our fabric that’s less than two years old and regularly cleaned. Not happy with the high maintenance, though I’m sure this wouldn’t be an issue if the furniture was in our lanai.

Palm Casual. While there is a store in Clermont, a trip to the Orlando store is worth it as the manufacturing is also done there. Wide variety and endlessly customizable.

Agreed. They look like the DAY WE GOT THEM.
We had designed a very large courtyard / outdoor seating area at the beach in NC.
We tried various furniture, but in 2015, we finally purchased Polywood adirondek chairs and they came with us to a courtyard we designed here.
Very very comfortable! It's all in the BRAND!!!

Palm Casual right off of Florida turnpike. Exit hwy 50 Winter Garden. 30 min. from The Villages.

We moved into our new house in the Fall of 2016 and we wanted to buy some nice casual furniture. There were four stores in The Villages area that sold good outdoor furniture - Leisure Living, Coral Casual, Perfect Porch, and Palm Casual.
We went to all four stores multiple times and we bought a nice metal oval table with four chairs at Perfect Porch. A little while later, we bought four rocker-reclining chairs with ottomans to rest our feet and two metal-glass tables.
Then we bought two rocker wicker chairs to have inside our house.
Later we had a patio built in front of our house and bought two chairs, two ottomans, and two tables.
We looked at the four stores I mentioned, but we bought everything at Perfect Porch.
Palm Casual was OK, but the prices were higher.
If you want to see this furniture, please me a PM.

We used Palm Casual three years ago and very satisfied. Great selections. Had minor issue with one pillow. They responded immediately and re-did it. Great customer service.

the nice qualities about polywood, we got ours from Palm casual, is that there are a variety of colors from which to select, and the heaviness means that the furniture generally doesn't move in all non-hurricane winds. Hurricanes, we generally bring in all the outside furniture, which means maybe once or twice a year max

A couple things I will say about Polywood, and I'm a big fan with over a dozen pieces in my possession, is that the cushions are V E R Y important. One is quick to develop "movie butt" soreness in the Adirondacks and rockers without the cushions. My favorite place in the world is sitting on one of their "deep seating" couches with the 5-inch cushions.
The other thing I will say about Polywood is I will never again get anything in their white color. I don't care how hard you clean it, the little texturing will turn gray. The only way to get it back to sparkling bright white is with bleach and pressure washer.
Their customer service is very responsive, I've been pleased with them when I had a cushion with a seam ripping apart.
