Naples Outdoor Kitchen Renovation – From Old to Gold
The home that this Naples outdoor kitchen was built in was a recent purchase for our customer. The home already had an outdoor kitchen installed but the new homeowner’s had a different vision in mind. Since everything had already been designed and planned, once the new homeowner’s closed on the home, we went to work removing the old outdoor kitchen and almost immediately started construction on the new Elegant Outdoor Kitchen.
This L-shape outdoor kitchen has plenty of room for entertaining. The side along the back wall (the grill side) is 11’5″. Perpendicular to and on the front, the left side of the grill side is the refrigerator side that is 7’7″ (as measured from the back wall). The façade along all the cabinet base is the Golden White stacked stone. The countertop & granite side and backsplash are a level 1 granite Ornamental granite. There is a 10″ overhang off the back and left side of the refrigerator side. The backsplash is 36″ in height for a width of 36″ centered under the hood and behind the grill; the right side splash is 5″ in height.
The components included in this summer kitchen:
• -4.1 CU outdoor refrigerator
• -4.1 CU/4.5 CU trim kit
• Blaze ice maker
• Condensate pump for the ice maker
• Custom stainless frame for the ice maker
• Blaze narrow trash storage drawer
• Tradewind 36” Hood (vented through the back)
• Blaze 32” 4-burner LTE series
• Blaze 32” door & double drawer combo (under the grill)
• Under mount sink with high-arc faucet
• Single vertical door (under the sink)
All it takes is a vision to make a house a home!

Off each side of the granite backsplash, there is a tile backsplash that is 3′ in height by approximately 4’1″ wide. The tile selected was a Cascade White 6”x6” tile installed on a diagonal.
There was an existing opening along the back wall that was partially filled in to allow for installation of the hood. This facade was a stucco finish. The remaining open areas off to the left and right of this opening were rescreened.
Cappadocia Stacked Stone Outdoor Kitchen Portfolio
Going back to the Esplanade by Taylor Morrison, we constructed this stacked stone outdoor kitchen in a model that provided us with about 9.5’ which is a perfect amount of space for the grill, sink & fridge combo that customers so often value.
Elegant Outdoor Kitchens focuses on our customer needs and budget to build an outdoor living space that can be enjoyed all year round. This project was a perfect fit for the available space and what our customer wanted in their outdoor kitchen.
The colors selected for this project were the Cappadocia stacked stone and a level 2 Ice Blue granite.

This beautiful outdoor kitchen features a high arch sink, Blaze infrared searing burner grill, Marvel 24″ refrigerator, professional smoker box, and 32″ double-door drawer combo.
We absolutely love the way this project turned out. Our customer will be able to enjoy this outdoor living space for years to come!
This Elegant Outdoor Kitchens project build was a remodel located in Legends Golf & Country Club in Fort Myers, Florida. This outdoor kitchen remodel had a couple of “firsts” for us, including the installation of a Teppanyaki grill (also known as Hibachi or griddle-style cooking) by Cook-N-Dine.
Teppanyaki (鉄板焼き teppan-yaki) is a style of Japanese cuisine that uses an iron griddle to cook food. The word teppanyaki is derived from teppan (鉄板), which means iron plate, and yaki (焼き), which means grilled, broiled or pan-fried.
The rounded grill features state-of-the-art Shallow Dip Technology. The hot center helps to preserve the juices and flavors of the food. Just outside the center, the mid-ring cools the surface by 50%, which allows food to stay warm without burning. The outermost ring stays completely cool!
We were thrilled with the finished project and very excited to have the chance to install a Teppanyaki grill. This was a first for us and something we hope to work with again!
The Components:
* Teppanyaki grill is 304 stainless steel, which means it is strong enough to hold up to the exterior climate.
* Blaze 4.5 CU FT stainless front refrigerator
* Two 25” double access doors for additional storage.
The stacked stone color chosen is the Golden White paired with a level 1 granite Fioritto.
During the design process, the owner came up with the unique idea to install a circular under-mount sink that would match the annular grilling surface of the grill.
The rounded sink and grill is very complimentary and we are very proud of how this outdoor kitchen project turned out!
Marina Bay is a community that is all about the lifestyle and outdoor living, so it is no surprise that this Marina Bay homeowner built an outdoor kitchen centered around those same concepts. At 6’5” long, this lanai did not offer a ton of under truss lanai space; but this design proves it is more about what you do with space rather than how much you have.
We constructed a support pillar at the opposite end of the bar and wrapped it with the corner pieces of Silver Travertine. Utilizing corner pieces allows the rock face to wrap around the pillar, rather than having a seam at the corner. Paying attention to small details like this is what sets EOK apart from the competition.
This outdoor kitchen features:
* Blaze 4.1 CU FT outdoor rated refrigerator
* Traditional Series 25” 3-burner grill
* Under-mount sink with a high-arc faucet and the
* Blaze single vertical access door.

The façade is the Silver Travertine paired with a Venetian granite which coordinates with the interior granite. The granite bar has the standard overhang of 1” at the corners, with a 9” bulge at the center for a maximum overhang of 10”.
We know this beautiful Florida outdoor kitchen will get tons of use!
Elegant Outdoor Kitchens is not just another Florida outdoor kitchen contractor. We take just as much pride in our customer service as we do our outdoor kitchen designs and construction. We find it incredibly humbling that our popularity with the Taylor Morrison customers continues to grow and we couldn’t be more appreciative for their continued trust.
In this outdoor kitchen project, we installed outdoor rated cabinets to match what the customer had on the interior of their home, including a recessed panel door. Another modern convenience we have come to love with our “indoor kitchens” is the added double pull out trash/recycle drawer. This Florida outdoor kitchen built during the busy summer months of 2018 is simply elegant!

• Insulated jacket for gas grills by Blaze

Our customer wished to have outdoor kitchen cabinets that matched their interior kitchen cabinets, and their wish was our command! We were able to build outdoor rated cabinets to match their interior kitchen cabinets.
We used Level 3 Ocean Beige granite for the countertop and matching backsplash. The granite backsplash fits perfectly between the Blaze 32″ grill and the Tradewind 36″ hood which will make cleaning up quick and easy!
Built in the Esplanade in a Taylor Morrison home, this outdoor kitchen is 10’2” long (along the back wall) and perpendicular to the back wall is bar top that is 7’6” in length. We installed a bar top that has a depth of 24” and arcs to 30” for a soft, finished look that provides plenty of space. The homeowner opted for an L-Shape counter bar top for seating and eating. Once again we were able to pack a ton of function into a small space without affecting movement around the area!
The backsplash includes a 36” x 36” square centered behind the grill and under the hood. This allows for easier maintenance and cleaning from any smoke residue that the grill may produce. The color selections include the Silver Travertine stacked stone and a level 1 Blue Sapphire granite. We also added a 4.1 CU refriderator to help keep food and beverages cold all year round.

Another custom outdoor grill build in the veranda in a home built by Kolter. This lanai offered lots of space at 11’7” in length, but the idea was to keep things simplistic with this outdoor kitchen. The homeowner went with the Cappadocia stacked stone base and a level 1 granite counter top with a simple 4” backsplash. We added a sink and refrigerator so that it offered all of the functionality that our customer desired. The design is a straight layout that offers easy access and a lot of counter space. Our custom kitchen design will make this living space perfect all year round!
We were happy to deliver what the customer was looking for and that is always our goal at Elegant Outdoor Kitchens! No matter how complex or simple the customer’s vision may be, we always work closely with each one to make sure that we get it right.

At Elegant Outdoor Kitchens we don’t have problems, we have solutions! This custom summer kitchen is constructed in the Pulte community Camden Square in Fort Myers. This custom summer kitchen proves that you do not need a lot of space to accomplish your goals and reminds us why building everything on-site and custom is so beneficial.
To keep from infringing on the walkway from the sliding glass doors, the base of the outdoor kitchen along the back wall is just 6’ 7” long with the granite extending at an angle over to the casing of the sliders. As a result, this shorter base limited us on room for the sink. We easily overcame the issue by tucking it into the corner at an angle. This kept the sink from having to go into the refrigerator base, which would then cut into the bar seating area for guests. Finding solutions to fit our customer needs is what we love to do!
The refrigerator section that runs perpendicular to the back wall is 6’ 8” in length and has an overhang of 7” off the back and the left side. The bar tops are perfect for those wanting to cook and chat it up with company simultaneously. The design selection highlights the owner’s unique personality, with the Light Travertine stacked stone and a Level 1 Uba Tuba granite. Not only is the base wrapped in the stacked stone, but the owner’s also opted to continue it along the entire back wall and even below counter height in the area to the right of the grill base. They choose to install a 36” x 36” piece of granite behind the grill for easier cleaning. The most unique aspect of this kitchen is the chiseled edge, which is hard to notice in photos but certainly eye-catching in person.
