Looking for Paradise? Here it is at the El Matador! Has to be the most sought of family vacation resort on the Emerald Coast. A secluded condominium nestled between the beautiful white sand dunes and the sparkling Emerald Waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

El Matador is truly a beach resort. Just two miles down Santa Rosa Blvd at the end of the Island you will find us – secluded but still just a few minutes to all the amenities that Destin and Fort Walton Beach have to offer. Just six miles down Hwy. 98 you can enjoy Destin – “ The Worlds Luckiest Fishing Village” – charter a private trip or take the kids out on a group boat and catch dinner. While in Destin enjoy fine restaurants, shopping, and golfing on some of the best golf courses in the Panhandle of Florida. Hard to believe that you might need a day off from the beach but if you do take the family to Big Kahunas Water Park in the center of old Destin. Much more than just a water park… it’s a day of fun!

Back at the El Matador enjoy the large grass areas between our buildings just right for family fun and games. With two pools, his and her whirlpool, and saunas just right for your tired muscles after a game of tennis on one of our courts, or in our fitness center. We are located at the end of Okaloosa Island a small barrier Island between Fort Walton Beach and Destin. This gated community with thirteen miles of undeveloped beaches to the west is sure to have you longing to return.

"Dirty dishes and could not use amenities
Could not use amenities like dry sauna and whirlpool. Tried to call and no answer. Dishes in condo had dried food on them. No extra toilet paper. Batteries no good in remote and bulbs out in lights."

"Wonderful stay!
Thank you so much - we had a fabulous time and the beach views were amazing!"
Nov 20, 2023 - NW FLORIDA B.

"Perfect
The perfect location! The views are beautiful! Room needs updates, the sliding door going out to balcony was very heavy. Only one elevator was within but didn't seem like we had to wait very long. We've stayed at this location for least 5 years like trying out different rooms"
Jul 24, 2023 - Melanie K., Sweetwater, TN

"El Matador 450
I really don’t have any complaints. I’m used to two queen beds in guest room at another unit & this one had twin beds. Maybe get some pot holders, there wasn’t any but we made due. It was a nice vacation!!"
Apr 30, 2023 - Melissa B., Leesburg, GA

"El Matador
Very concerned over mold in master bathroom. It affected our breathing. Young man in rental office seemed unconcerned but to us it was a huge concern"
Oct 15, 2022 - Shirley B., Peachtree City, GA

"Enjoyed our stay
Liked the location. Condo was clean. It could use some updating with interior look and furniture. Our building needed lobby cleaned up - washers/dryers sitting in the lobby for several days. "

"June 2022
Loved the overall complex. The children had plenty of lawn space to play and meet others. The beach wasn’t overly crowded. Grounds are well kept. Our particular unit was comfortable but needed some updates in color and furniture. Overall we would love to visit again. Lots of things to do in area. "

"Great Stay
Beautiful resort, not too packed, unit was amazing and the check in was very easy and smooth. "
Jul 04, 2022 - Andra M., Frankfort, KY

"Over 20 years of staying at El Matador
This unit 450 is in great need of updating. I have stayed at many units within 3 and 4 building. This is very first one that I was disappointed with. The unit needs updated. Doors and locks need replaced. The unit is clean and balcony view is nice but I won’t stay in this unit again until updated. I’ll spend that money in another unit that’s updated and secure useable doors."

"Girls trip
We had a great time during our stay. El Matador was very clean. Easy access to pool and great view of the beach. We will return. "

"Beatt Family Vacation
Property was good like always. Unit was horrible. #450. Same decor as years before with lots of wear. Owners need to update but why should they when they can get the same rent? So dirty. Had to Clorox wipe everything down. Carpet and furniture not cleaned. Smelled bad. love El Matador. Would not recommend #450. Did not request a change because we were told it was the only 2 bedroom available."

"Review of 450 for July 2020
We have been staying at various El Matador condos over the past 12 yrs. Overall, our experience was great! The location can’t be beat, and the property is kept pretty clean. Now 450 needs lots of updating. The kitchen items aren’t all working or modern. Other then these issues we always leave relaxed and tan. "
Aug 03, 2020 - Mary G., Tomball, TX

"Girls trip
The property was well-maintained and all were friendly. Our unit needs totally updated. I would tell people to bring a lot of their own cooking needs if possible As they are sparse in that unit. It was very difficult to open and close the sliding glass door leading onto the nice big patio from the living room. The stove It is a very uneven cooktop which makes it difficult to cook on. The The view from the balcony and the balcony furniture was very comfortable."

"Unit 450 Review for June 30-July 7, 2018
Our family of 28 persons rented several units that week in three different buildings. This unit was by far the most expensive and was by far the least appealing. From the front door keys not working to the sliding glass door being difficult to open, to the homemade 2 X 4 coffee table, there were several areas of concern. "Rick", from ,did very nicely and quickly bring a new key, new sheets for the king bed and reprogram the TVs that weren't working, so we are glad about that. The kitchen lacked several basic utensils, and the overall decorating them was dark, old, and jungle like fabrics such as leopard prints, etc. This unit needs to be cleaned, lightened up and upgraded."

"Another awesome summer stay!
This is my fifth summer stay in El Matador, and the third one in unit 450. The property management is one of the best I have seen. They run like a family and always take care of you. Reservations have been simple and easy with electronic contracting/payment. The unit is located in the corner of 5th floor, so needless to say it is very low traffic and quiet even during summer seasons. The building itself is literally right in front of the beach with a gorgeous ocean view from the balcony. Some of the appliances and furnitures have shown signs of aging and may need update down the road. If you are here for the July 4th holiday, you can watch the fireworks show right from the balcony. No need to fight the horrendous traffic into Destin. Will definitely come back in the future. "

"Weekend getaway
Great room for our family of 5. This is our 2nf stay in this room and won't be the last "

"Spring Break 2018
Great Unit. We have stayed there many times & working with Hollis is a pleasure. They will jump through hoops to help if they can."

Also.........the dishwasher needs updating, but not all that important!! We had a wonderful stay and we will be back!!! "

"450 El Matador
Wonderful place to stay. Quiet with great view. Would stay there again.
Would prefer key code entry so keys don't have to be picked up and dropped off.
Screen doors were both off track so hard to enjoy open doors. "

"GREAT UNIT
GREAT UNIT, BEAUTIFULLY DECOREATED, NICE VIEW. BEACH IS NOT CROWDED, LARGE POOL, GUARDED SAFE AREA. QUIET AND RELAXING. WILL DEFINETLY BE BACK. GREAT VACATION."

"Beach Trip 2015
The El Matador complex is a beautiful place. The location is wonderful. Beaches are beautiful. The best thing is it's right next to miles of uninhabited shoreline. Gorgeous. The condo was OK. The appliances need updating as well as the TV in the living room. It was clean. The master bed has a very firm mattress. I thought the condo would be a little nicer considering the amount of money that we paid, but those things can be fixed. Overall it was great. The location is so nice it makes up for everything that was sub-par. We would stay here again."
Jul 28, 2015 - John H., Carrollton, GA

"Ocean, Beach, Sunset, Shopping, HAPPY!
Would like a new tv in living room but unit very well equipped. Staff very friendly and property very well maintained. Had a great holiday. Thank you."

"Perfect 3 Night Stay
We love everything about Okaloossa Island. Relaxing time with family. The El Matador complex is well maintained and beach access is handy from any building on the property. Loved being able to drink coffee and watch the waves roll in from the balcony.
The balcony floor could use a fresh coat of paint, it is very chipped and kind of hurt your feet. Small issue I know. Other than that it is a fabulous condo that we would stay in again."
Jul 20, 2013 - Yori E., Camp Lejeune, NC

"Nice and easy
The El Matador is very good location as there are no condos to the right of the complex. Therefore, the beach is uncrowded and very pretty.The free umbrella and chairs are also a nice perk.Overall, an nice,easy, place to stay."
