Do the oceanfront studios have a regular lanai with chairs and tables or are they like the French balcony in building 3.

I would hate to pay extra for the view and not be able to sit outside. Thank you.

The OF studios at WKORV (South) have lanais with chairs and a small table. They are not like the OV studios in that respect.

One serious con of WKORV no real table on the balcony. I love eating outside but there are only 2 chairs and small table. Do ocean front Villas get a full table?

Yes, as to the one bedroom side.

No, as to the studio. But you can move the small round eating-height table that is inside the unit onto the lanai.

So the OF South lanai is the same as the 1BR? Any photos? Is Building 3 looking over the parking lot the only one with the small French balcony? Or are all buildings the same?

In the South phase:

The island view and ocean view studios only have french balconies.

The ocean front studios have regular lanais. I don't think that Starwood ever published a floor plan for the center units, but here is a floor plan for the ocean front deluxe (corner) units. The studio lanai is on the right side of the floor plan:

As far as I can tell, the interior of the OFC units are the same as the other premium 2BR units. Since the studios have a proper lanai (roughly 6-7 feet deep), the 1BR lanai also gets the extra depth . Additionally, the width of the 1BR lanai extends across the width of the unit (vs. the non-OF units that where the lanai is in front of the bedroom and to the side of the living area).

I attached a few photos of the lanai on the 1BR side.
