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.

  Beverly B from New Athens, IL recommends this vacation rental

  We had a great experience from beginning to end. The reservation and payment process was simple. Picked up the key in the office and was greeted by helpful friendly staff. Arrived at the gate also friendly and helpful and reassuring that there are gate attendants on duty. We were well pleased upon entering the unit, it was very clean and nicely furnished. The kitchen was well stocked with every kind of small appliances and bakeware and pots and pans. I commented that you could easily cook thanksgiving dinner if you wanted to. Beds were comfortable enough. We very much liked the complex location at the end of Santa Rosa Blvd. beach was awesome and we enjoyed having free beach service. Just a very nice experience would do this again. Also great gulf view from this unit.

  a guest from Carrollton, TX recommends this vacation rental

  Overall we had a great vacation. Location was perfect since we were right there on the beach. The unit seems to need some updates. The master bedroom toilet seat had chunks of paint missing where you could see the wood and one side of the bed mattress would make a squeak noise every time you moved (not great if you are a light sleeper). Also, wished the clean spare pillows were labeled somehow in the closets because some of them had pillowcases (which one of them had a stain on) on them and others not. Wish there was a light blanket for the sleeper sofa as well. The unit also needs new paint because some the the baseboards/walls/doors had stains on them. The kitchen was fully stocked with utensils, pans, etc which was nice since we cooked often.

  • Manager Responded on 8/15/2020

    Sylvia, i am happy to hear your review and i will let the owner know immediately. This past week he was at the condo, bringing some new dishes, new area rug, and some other things he was taking care of in there. The fall is coming and we will take care of any painting needed, but, we are happy that you enjoyed your stay in 168 our beaches and we hope to see you again.

  Harold N from Florence, KY does not recommend this vacation rental.

  We have been staying at a friend's condo at El Matador for nearly 20 years. She was a "neatnick" and everything was always clean and in good order. They sold the condo in 2017, so we have had to stay at a condo in a different building now. This is our second year in this particular unit. It's best feature is that it is at El Matador. These buildings and grounds are maintained to the max; excellent. Unfortunately, this particular condo is in need of some attention. Last year; towel rack hanging from wall in master bath, and closet door off track and on backwards (still that way this year, but repaired while we were there; and towel rack had been repaired. Vertical blinds on patio had missing slats and no way to open. Found rod in drawer that enabled me to change blind angles, but had to use broomstick to slide blinds open and closed. Bulky credenza in living room for TV. Couldn't view from dining area. Couches old and uncomfortable. Table on patio is too tall. Heavy cast iron chairs and table with glass top in eating area, What's with these cold, glass table tops? We bring table cloths with us to protect dishes. Front door is also in need of repair. It is splitting near the lock. Almost looks as though someone tried to force their way in. Bottom line is "we will stay elsewhere next year".

  • Manager Responded on 11/5/2018

    Sounds like some of this issues were just personal preferences. A simple phone call would have taken care of any and all your issues, and happy to hear that they were repaired while you were here. The couches are new, patio table is high as most guest would rather look over the balcony railing instead of through it, don't think that anyone tried to break into the unit, but that guest leave the front door open and when they open the sliding glass door to the balcony it causes the front door to slam and thus cracking the wood. All issues that we can take care of have - thank you for pointing them out!

  Still here. Rent spanned part of two months. Entrance door hard to open, close. End of door is split. Could not open vertical blinds on patio. Found louver rod in tv credenza. Broken, but able to jury--rig it to change blind angle. Had to use broom stick ti slide blind open and close. Door would not open. Track gritty and wheels worn. Had to spray track every few days to get it to slide. Door off track in bedroom (maintaince came and got it back on track). It wasoff track last year.Still akward, opens on wrong side. Like last year, light out in kitchen. Dirt under bulky tv credenza. DVD player so high, had to climb on chair to use it. Stick-vacuum picked up nothing. Big vacuum very heavy and had no bag. Heavy steel coffee table and akward heavy steel dining table and chairs with glass top. Makes no sense. Had to cover table tops. Slats missing on vertical blind. Found in patio closet, but ends torn.

    Mr. Nalley - thank you for taking the time to list your issues. These things are certainly easy to fix and we will address them, EM 168 is one of our guest favorite places to stay.

  a guest from Aledo, TX recommends this vacation rental

  Our unit was clean and nicely appointed with a nice relaxing balcony view of the ocean. The beach front is beautiful with white sand & clean beaches. It is also less crowded as it is next to the military base & no other condos to the west of property. It is in Bld.#1 which is looking out over a parking lot, then the main swimming pool & boardwalk to beach.The Matador landscaping was well maintained & there is another pool nearby with a workout room & hot tub(must have code to enter). Staff was friendly & helpful and the 2 chairs & umbrella service was great. The only issue with the unit is the towel bar in master bath falls out of the wall first time you take towel off or bump it (minor problem). We also were told the property is no smoking yet there were lots of smokers outside on the grounds but the condo complex interior did not smell of smoke. I would have to give this property a thumbs up. P.S You need to bring extra paper towels,trash bags, baggies etc for kithen if planning on cooking much. Reccomendations while there: The Indian Mound Musem is interesting & good for a rainey day, Stewby's Restaurant is about 2-3 miles inland but great local food for the price (casual order at counter place), the Ft. Walton- Okaloosa Boardwalk is close (nice restaurants & has a nice public beach area), Destin Boardwalk is much larger with more restaurant options but is a few miles farther & lots traffic congestion on weekends & holidays.

  Harold N from Florence, KY recommends this vacation rental

  For many years we rented a condo from a friend at El Matador. Since they were in the process of selling their condo, we contacted Alicia Hollis to rent a different condo. Went from 2nd floor in Bldg 2 to 6th floor in Bldg 1. Was unsure of being up that high and needing elevator, but due to inactivity in October, elevator always available. Loved the 6th floor view. The buildings and property are constantly being cleaned, painted, and maintained. Sturdy buildings that always look new. This particular condo had a great shower, but towel racks, although new, were loose in both bathrooms and I had to re-attach one. The closet door in master bedroom was off track and I temporarily repaired it. Dining area furniture is big glass table(UGH! had to put cloth on it!) and bulky, heavy metal chairs. TV armoire was huge and bulky. Doors on armoire stuck out and made viewing from dining area impossible. We will stay at El Matador again and again, but not in 168.

  • Manager Responded on 11/25/2017

    Thanks you for letting us know about the issues in your condo, and we will address those with the owner, and he will immediately take care of them. That condo had some new furnishings just bought this year, and i am going to talk to them about the other issues. We are so glad that you enjoyed that awesome view from that balcony, it is phenomenal and no obstruction either. Please don't let that disappoint you, but, we are on it, and we hope to see you again next year, with that same property.

  Our family totally enjoyed our stay at El Matador. The resort itself is very charming. The unit, however; was absolutely beautiful! The renovations were well done and the view was amazing. In all my years of vacationing on Okaloosa Island I have never had beach service. AJ, the beach attendant was tremendous. Very friendly, energetic and always willing to go the extra mile to make our experience a great one. I will never not have beach service again. We plan to come back next year!! Amazing time.

  Fantastic stay-cation.
  Very pleased with the unit, except a few things need to be repaired. Overall very clean, except artificial plants etc. needed a good dusting. The only reason I'm giving it only 3 stars for cleanliness. Towel holders had been repaired in bathroom and drywall dust was left on floor. (Very minor). The grounds are well maintained and the view was amazing.
  Would definitely recommend!!

Thanks for letting us know about the drywall on the floor i apologize for that, but, i am glad that we are going to see you again in the future. Don't forget this is one of the best areas for your vacation.

  The room was beautiful and we enjoyed our stay. I thought it was on the first floor. But this was my first time there. Definitely coming back next year but I will be sure to get a first floor unit because it was a lot walking around the building and taking the elevator. The elevator was hot.

  Cathey C from Tulsa, ok recommends this vacation rental

  I had no experience with the management company personally. Everything was great except the number on the e-mail was not a working number and I had to go online and find the number. Everything else was great!

  My family owned a condo at El Matador for approximately 30 years and Alicia Hollis was engaged as the management company for that duration; we wouldn't think of going through any one else when visiting FWB

  a guest from New Orleans, LA recommends this vacation rental

  I can't imagine why El Matador was so deserted over Memorial Day weekend - it was beautiful, perfect location, great beach. In fact, I'm hesitant to give it a good review because I don't want other people to find out about it.
