Welcome to LanaiBuilder.com.

The dictionary defines a lanai as, "A veranda or roofed patio." In the southern U.S., especially in Florida, a lanai is a screened-in enclosure that is attached to the back of a house and very often includes a swimming pool.

A lanai can range from a simple screened-in patio to a multi-story screen cage enclosing a swimming pool, spa, landscaping, outdoor kitchen and eating, gathering and sunning areas.

My next door neighbor recently had their lanai enlarged and a pool with spa installed, as well as lanai landscaping. The whole thing looked pretty complicated so I would recommend that any lanai builder you hire be very experienced.
