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.

Great stay!!!!
Beautiful condo in a great location. We have stayed at the El Matador for years and years, and I can honestly say that this is by far the nicest condo that we have ever stayed in. It looks like it must have been updated recently and felt extremely clean, which was one of the most important factors for me when searching for a condo because our 10 month old son would be crawling everywhere. We will definitely be back to stay here!

Very clean and fresh
Beautiful unit, very clean and newly renovated. Kitchen is well stocked and had everything you would need just bring your food. Bathroom was spacious and the shower is amazing. Bedding was luxurious and the mattress was very comfortable. Great location too just a few feet from the pool and beach entrance. Highly recommend!!!

Great Spot
July 6th-13th 2019 We have a two year old child and the room was PERFECT for us to get to the pool and back to the room. I counted 30 steps from the back of our room to the pool. Room was big and very clean. The bed was very comfortable, and plenty of room to put your clothes. I would definitely get this room again. Thanks.
