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.

Little disappointing unit needs updating

Went on honeymoon. Unit is older and needs updating. No beach service. Water pressure is horrible. Furniture wasn’t comfortable or updated. Never could get use of washer/ dryer or jacuzzi. Always door locked. Not happy to start a honeymoon. Parking was not good either. We only had one car but had to park out back. There was no coupon books for discounts. I am not happy. View was the best of the experience.

Awesome view, condo & location!

The condo looks exactly like the photos. Kitchen is high end with nice cookware. & lots of cupboards! We thought the bed was very comfortable - On the softer, but comfy. The second bedroom bath is where we primarily showered only because it was a small step up, whereas the master bath had tub!shower with sliding doors. The master bath for toilet anyone tub/shower was cramped. The master bath sink & vanity area was very roomy. Lots of closet storage! Sliding patio doors off master to long balcony with sliding doors off of i Bing room. This unit being on the top & corner was a water/beach lover's dream. We enjoyed sunrises and sunsets. We spent mornings on the balcony, went to the beach in the afternoon (short walk to short boardwalk on our end!) and had perfect weather. We visited in early March. Probably due to Covid, not many people were on the beach, which...was just fine with us! Then again, it is a gated community and at the end of the beach strip of Ft. Walton Beach. The pool was beautiful, but we never saw anyone get in it. Several laid out in lawn chairs. Elevator to 6th floor always easy to obtain. Luggage trolleys on ground floor made it so convenient to bring everything up We would recommend El Matador and this unit. Restaurants are close and Destin is "down the strip".
