Project Overview

The homeowners at The Dunes of Naples, FL loved their home but their kitchen no longer reflected their lifestyle. The space was functional but outdated, with darker granite countertops, older appliances, plain cabinetry, and no visual depth or texture on the backsplash.

They didn’t want a full gut renovation. They wanted a strategic, high-impact transformation that would make the kitchen feel brighter, more modern, and more aligned with the clean coastal aesthetic they loved.

That’s where Marble & Tile Experts stepped in, delivering a remodel that completely refreshed the look and feel of the space without changing the layout or cabinetry.

‍

Design Goals

The homeowners wanted changes that would make an immediate visual impact, including:

A Brighter, Airier Kitchen

Replace dark surfaces with light-reflecting materials that make the room feel larger and more inviting.

A Modern, Clean Aesthetic

Create a sleek, coastal-inspired look with:

• High-gloss backsplash tile
• Streamlined quartz countertops
• Updated sink and faucet
• Warm, soft lighting

A Space That Feels Like Home

The biggest goal wasn’t just new materials, it was creating a kitchen where the homeowners could truly see themselves:

• Morning coffee at a clean, bright countertop
• Hosting friends in a kitchen that feels elevated
• Cooking in a space that feels calming and beautiful

They wanted their kitchen to match the lifestyle and comfort of their Naples home and Marble & Tile Experts brought that vision to life.

The Transformation

The remodel focused on the elements that deliver the greatest visual change with the least disruption:

Premium Quartz Countertops

The heavy granite was replaced with a lighter quartz that instantly brightened the room and made the entire kitchen feel more modern.

Full-Height Glossy Backsplash Tile

This is the star of the transformation.
The wavy, reflective tile catches natural and under-cabinet light, adding movement and calm energy to the space.

Flawless Installation & Precision Cuts

This is where craftsmanship matters most.
The video shows:

• Perfect tile alignment
• Smooth transitions
• Clean corner lines
• Expert cuts around the stainless-steel range hood

These small details are what make the kitchen look polished and expensive.

Warm Under-Cabinet Lighting

Subtle lighting was added to highlight the tile texture and give the kitchen a welcoming glow, especially at night.

Updated Sink & Faucet

An undermount sink paired with a sleek chrome faucet completed the modern feel and added practical functionality.

By focusing on these high-impact upgrades, the kitchen feels completely new without needing a full rebuild.
