Inder Suryawanshi a été nommé(e) Executive Chef chez Ritz-Carlton Residences, Naples Sales Gallery
STOCK Residences – the high-end condominium division of nationally recognized STOCK Development and developer of The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Naples, which is on track for completion this fall – is pleased to announce the appointment of Indrajit “Chef Inder” Suryawanshi as Executive Chef. In this role, he will lead the property’s culinary program, creating dining experiences centered on seasonal ingredients, local partnerships, and personalized service for residents.
To bring that vision to life, Suryawanshi will oversee all culinary operations throughout the property, drawing on nearly 20 years of experience across Marriott International’s luxury portfolio. His responsibilities will span the residents-only restaurant, rooftop lounges, poolside dining venues, and bespoke culinary experiences designed to extend beyond the table, from beachside picnics to catered days on the water.
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Naples, the first and only Ritz-Carlton Residences in Naples, comprises 128 estate-like residences across five boutique-scale buildings, including Tower, Bay and Park Residences. Set on six idyllic acres between the Gulf of Mexico and Vanderbilt Lagoon, the community has recorded robust sales activity since launch, including the complete sell-out of its 11th-floor penthouse collection. Residents will enjoy more than 50,000 square feet of private amenities, including dining venues led by Chef Inder, along with a full-service marina, spa, and the Vanderbilt Club.
Suryawanshi joins The Residences following a distinguished culinary career spanning luxury properties throughout the United States, the Middle East, and India. Most recently, he served as Executive Chef of JW Marriott Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa, where he led culinary operations for the award-winning waterfront resort.
Prior to that, he held executive leadership roles at JW Marriott Marco Island Beach Resort, Marriott Grand St. Louis, MGM National Harbor, Marriott Marquis Washington, D.C., Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center, and JW Marriott Dubai. His career began in pastry, earning numerous culinary accolades and helping shape the artistic approach to presentation and menu development that remains a hallmark of his work today.
Throughout his career, Suryawanshi has been recognized for creating highly personalized dining programs and one-of-a-kind dishes that blend luxury hospitality standards with a strong sense of place. At The Residences, he is developing a culinary program inspired by the Gulf Coast’s agricultural and seafood traditions, with menus that evolve seasonally and reflect collaborations with local farmers, fishermen, and specialty producers throughout Southwest Florida.
Among the concepts Suryawanshi is introducing are farm-to-table and boat-to-table dining experiences that highlight the region’s abundance of fresh seafood and seasonal ingredients. Menus will evolve throughout the year, allowing residents to enjoy offerings inspired by harvest cycles, regional flavors, and resident preferences.
Beyond sourcing, Suryawanshi is focused on creating a culinary program that anticipates residents’ preferences, dietary needs, and favorite dishes, reflecting the highly personalized service synonymous with The Ritz-Carlton brand.
Suryawanshi’s passion for hospitality traces back to his childhood in India, where he first learned to cook alongside his mother. That early appreciation for craftsmanship continues to influence his culinary philosophy today, which he often summarizes as: “Cook like Grandma, plate like an artist.”
