We decided on double wall for coolness in the summer but mainly for noise. Keeping out the coqui noises is a big plus, unfortunately the windows are single pane so that does tend to negate the noise benefit. Also for noise it is good to use 5/8" drywall instead of 1/2". That can make a big difference for noise. We also insulated the interior rooms as well. All for noise reasons.
Our multifaceted house also stays cools due to the concrete floors, vaulted ceilings and roof vents.
