FORT WALTON BEACH, FL--(Marketwired - Dec 26, 2014) -  Marriott has opened the doors on its newest select-service property on Okaloosa Island, the Fairfield Inn & Suites Fort Walton Beach-West Destin. Located just six miles west of the Destin Bridge, the state-of-the-art location is open for business, welcoming guests from all over to discover its ample amenities and vibrant setting. Many guests eager to be the first to stay at the only beachfront Marriott property in Fort Walton Beach and Destin placed their reservations months in advance.

The newest little Marriott gem is the first of the Marriott brand, from Pensacola to Panama City, boasting 87 luxuriously-appointed rooms, a spacious lobby and breakfast area, and a sparkling Zero-Entry Pool; complete with Children's Aquatic Play Area. Guests are invited to relax amid the sights and sounds of Fort Walton's nearby emerald-green waters, splashing gently into the sugar-white sands of the coast just steps away.
