    Amanda F from Daphne, AL recommends this vacation rental

    My Husband, our 2 daughters (ages 8 & 13) and I had such an amazing time!! The room was so cute (a little dated, but that was totally fine!) and the location of the room, well we couldn’t as for a better one! It was bottom level and facing the pool and the beach! Our view from our windows and patio door was so beautiful, the people who worked there and stayed there were so nice and helpful! Every morning we would wake up early to walk the beach and see the gorgeous sunrise! And what was so nice it wasn’t a long walk to the beach at all! You also get to see the coolest planes, jets and helicopters since your close to the Air Force, which was so cool!! Everything worked great in our condo as far as the microwave, oven and refrigerator. There was a dishwasher but we didn’t use it. The bed was comfortable and there was a ceiling fan in the master room (and a small fan on the dresser which we used as well)and living room, ac worked great, there’s a pull out bed in the couch where our 2 daughters slept and they had no complaints! If you needed to wash clothes the washer & dryer room in the building was so close to our room which we used once and worked great just make sure you have quarters bc you do have to pay to use it, I want to say it was $1.50 for washer and same for the dryer.Things to bring that helped us hand soap, dish soap, paper towels, disinfectant wipes, paper plates, disposable cups forks spoons and knives, small laundry detergent, small box of dryer sheets, sun screen, first aid kit, rubbing alcohol and hydrogen peroxide (helps for swimmers ear), food snacks and drinks, beach towels (you can never have too many) and of course personal hygiene and trash bags. Those were very helpful to us. We loved our stay, and we will definitely go back and choose the same room again!

    • Manager Responded on 7/6/2021

      Amanda, thank you for your glowing comment. You are right about ground floor condos, no lugging suitcases up the elevator: you're out the condo and on the beach. You did not mention the beach service (umbrella & 2 chairs) so I hope you remember that next time. You can buy quarters from the security guard for washer/dryer. We look forward to your return visit. Call us direct at to book your next stay.

Our only concern was with the amenities and general condition of the unit. Appliances were old. Vacuum was inoperable. Kitchen was a hodgepodge of things. Deck furniture was rusty. We did not see too many other units, but this was not up to other units. I


    • Manager Responded on 3/9/2017

      We are so sorry, that you did not enjoy that unit, even though they had a brand new kitchen done 2 years ago and a new walk in shower. Patio furniture being rusty, is because it gets corroded from the salt air, and we have our wonderful owners, who will be joining this condo soon, and we will get them to replace all the things that you have mentioned. But, other then that, i am so glad that you loved especially THE LOCATION of that unit, which is steps to the pool and out on the gazebo. I also hope that you enjoyed our wonderful scenery, foods in the area and activities at the el matador and most of all our wonderful GULF.

    EL MATADOR is an older complex that has been well kept. Very good location and reasonably priced, especially for the winter season. Our unit was ground floor and steps to the "sugar-like" sand beach. 2 pools, one heated. Minor problems were taken care of by HOLLIS in a timely manner. Our major complaint, not much to do in FT. W.

    lynn c from rathdrum, ID recommends this vacation rental

    I would definitely come back again to exactly the same spot and same condo if the owner did just one thing: buy a new bed. The bed is a very old innerspring mattress and the bedding is thread bare.

      Just wanted to let you know that I notified the owner about the bed, and they said that they will be replacing it, and thanks for letting us know. Chris.

    John P from Baton Rouge, Louisiana (LA) recommends this vacation rental

    The rental was extremely nice and very convienetly located to the pool and beach. The only problem was the floors did not seem very clean when we arrived. There were spots on the kitchen floor. Also, the bedroom did not seem to cool down with the A/C at night.

    The unit definitely needs renovated, the decor is circa 1976 I think, but it was very clean, very comfortable and location can be beat! We'll definitely be back!

    Robert R from Plano, Texas recommends this vacation rental

    We have stayed in this unit in previous years, this year after paying extra $50.00 cleaning the floor was still sandy, should have been swept before mopping.
    Air was fixed very fast, after my call. Thanks
    Steve you may need to hire Quality control to check unit after cleaning says unit ready.

    This property is very spacious and has a direct view to the ocean. The bed and pillows are very soft and comfy. The pull out couch was great for my two small boys. We very much enjoyed our stay!

    • Manager Responded on 4/27/2013

      Good Morning RObin, I was reading your review and i am happy that you enjoyed this unit 314 at the el matador and it was comfortable for you and your family. I know it is very convenient right there in front of the pool and also by the gazebo that takes you out to the beach. I am glad that you enjoyed everything and we will see you again next year. Thanks Chris.

    Julie B from Muscle Shoals, AL does not recommend this vacation rental.

    Loved the location, great to be that close to the beach and pool. The condo could use some updating with the electrical outlets. Many were very old and the plugs wouldn't stay in the outlets. There wasn't near enough hot water available. There wasn't even enough hot water for a ten minute shower.
