US-based hotel management company Vista Host has opened SpringHill Suites by Marriott Orange Beach Gulf Shores, a 120-suite hotel, in Alabama, US.

Developed in partnership with Cohen Investments’ Eliot and Stuart Cohen, the hotel aims to combine the relaxed atmosphere of Alabama’s Gulf Coast with considered hospitality.

The property provides convenient access to the beaches, dining, and outdoor activities of Orange Beach and Gulf Shores.

SpringHill Suites Orange Beach Gulf Shores provides suites larger than standard hotel rooms, with separate working, sleeping, and living areas.

Amenities include soft linens, a sofa sleeper, and bedding designed to accommodate longer stays or family visits.

The hotel’s public areas feature a coastal-inspired design that links guest rooms with shared spaces.

Outdoor amenities include a resort-style pool with a poolside bistro, serving light snacks and beverages with a menu that incorporates coastal flavours.

The hotel also features The Blue Heron Room, a 1,080ft² space suitable for meetings and small groups.

Additional guest amenities include free Wi-Fi, complimentary daily breakfast, a 24/7 Market, a modern fitness centre, and a laundry facility.

Vista Host also announced Cole Walker as sales manager for the property and Matthew Sutherland as general manager.

Vista Host CEO Evan Studer said: “This opening represents everything we value as a company.

“Working alongside Cohen Investments, we set out to create a hotel that reflects the beauty of the coast while giving back to the community that makes Orange Beach so special."
