The center of any beach vacation is none other than the beach itself. That's why El Matador Condos are the most sought after beach vacations in the Florida panhandle. All along Fort Walton Beach Florida, otherwise known as Okaloosa Island, vacationers are enjoying the whitest sand and cleanest water found in North America. From the Destin harbor to El Matador Condo, and all in between, El Matador Condos offers your family the perfect beach vacation.

El Matador Condos offer more than just a white beach. Here, you'll find yourself surrounded by a family atmosphere with plenty of activities for the parents and the kids. Attractions such as go karts, putt-putt, and bungee jumping can be found in the heart of Destin. There is also a water park called Big Kahunas located on Miracle Strip Pkwy. If you're feeling adventurous, you can take off on a jet ski, or parasail above the Emerald Coastline. Love fishing? Then you'll want to charter a half or full day of deep sea fishing on one of Destin's world famous fishing fleet. This is the world's luckiest fishing village, by the way.

Perhaps you just want to get away from it all. Each El Matador Condos resort has a private beach for your enjoyment. Beach chairs & umbrellas are available for rent, and are included in many El Matador Condos packages. Every El Matador unit has a unique view of the Gulf of Mexico. Each building is angled to maximize the views from each private balcony. Here, you'll find onsite tennis, heated pool, exercise facilities, spas, and more.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: End unit so it had extra windows. Nicely decorated. The building was one close to the Gulf. Down from the pool so not much extra noise. Very family friendly. Could use some touch ups such as get rid of the old and dirty popcorn ceiling, needs new paint (lots of scruff marks on the walls), needs caulk around tub/shower. Only one frying pan. You need to bring extra toilet paper, paper towels, soap. Chair and umbrella rentals are $45 per day. You need to reserve BEFORE you get there. Give yourself extra time to get around town; traffic is very congested. Located about 2.5 miles from a grocery store.

Roaches from start to finish during a six day stay. Condo needs a lot of maintenance. Appliances broken. Balcony door won’t close. Master shower plumbing clogged. Management company Alecia Hollis nonresponsive.

Loved the setting. Good view of architecture and pool with gulf backdrop. Cozy veranda for coffee...relaxing. One issue was the disturbingly loud noise of all the A/C condensers. Resounded loudly in the courtyard. But, great stay, otherwise!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was beautiful. The condo was really nice only thing they should had curtains in the small room because the light thats on the building is very bright. And should get better sliding doors for the living room. Other than that we wished we would of stayed longer.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The el matadore has everything we are looking for in a vacation spot, we have stayed here many times, but it had been about 15 years since previous stays. As far as the complex itself it was just as we remembered it and is very well kept. The unit itself was clean and in decent shape, but the main slider had deteriorated to a point that most of the kids and women could not open, nor close it! I myself had to lift and fight to open and close it, while maintance was quick to arrive after I called the office it was not fixed before our stay was over. It was pretty frustrating for anyone wanting to go out on the balcony, and as you can imagine that went on throughout the day and at nite with people on different sleeping schedules, they either had to go tthrough our bedroom, or fight the main slider and the additional noise. We also were cooking and had some smoke forming in the unit, someone opened a side window for a few minutes, then we couldn’t get it shut, spent 20 to 30 minutes on it trying to get it coded, a couple times I thought it was going to fall out.I understand that parts for a slider that age are not readily available, but for the premium we paid for the unit I would expect things like that to be checked to make sure they are in working order.We enjoyed our stay at the el matadore, but this was quite the downer!

Very turned off on the cleanliness of the condo beyond countertops and floors. Within 30 minutes of arriving we noticed a quarter inch of dust on the ceiling fan blades and once you see something like that, we naturally started keeping an eye out. Condo had areas of drywall repair without paint, large thick markings on the walls in the kitchen area, caked grease and dirt on the white ceiling - just repaint the property. Two full mattress bed frames extremely old and wobblily. Afraid to turn in bed and break whatever thread the whole thing was hanging on. Doors need WD-40, extremely loud creaking which was frustrating with a 8 month old baby we didnt want to wake up but needed to check on. Overall, property needs a lot of updating. Kitchen appliances were good and they had what we needed for cooking family scale dinners. The Condo Complex was great and the beach location was great. Very short walk to the boardwalk and condo is the furthest property on the shoreline, so you dont really get people from other condos infringing on your beach carveout. Will not stay at this condo again, but will 100% stay at the Matador again.
