Great condo
Our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teens) stayed in this unit, and everyone was very comfortable and had room to breathe. The kids each had a twin bed and their own full bathroom. The condo was spacious and had a good view of the pool and the ocean. I love that it's next to a nature preserve, so there is no building on one side. This made the beach area in front of the condo less crowded. The elevators were fast and reliable, and I liked having a code to get into the condo instead of a physical key. There were only 2 downsides; 1) there is no washer/dryer in the unit, so you have to pay for the one that is down the hall. However, the machines were new and readily available. 2) Beach chairs and umbrella and *not* included. We have stayed at several other condos in this price range where washer/dryer were in the condo and the chairs & umbrella were included. Overall it was a very good unit that we would stay in again.

Condo needs some updating
We enjoyed the stay and would stay again at El Matador just not in # 446. My husband and I only slept in the king size bed, but it was so uncomfortable, we got very little sleep. Also although you could tell the carpet had been vacuumed, it really needs shampooing or replacing. I didn’t want to walk on it with my bare feet. The microwave also needs replacing because it was rusted. The unit just needs an overall updating and for the money we paid it was not worth it!

Nice location!
Location makes this property. At the end of the public area and all the condos. The beach area extends past the property into the Air Force base and you can spread out and find space on the beach without being crowded. The actual condo is a little dated but has been pretty well maintained. Seemed very clean and had good views from the balcony. Would recommend!
