Very Nice Condo, Very Clean. Awesome view. Nice area of town. Owner was very attentive to any need we may have had. Will stay again if every down Fort Walton way again
We had the best time while staying. The room was exactly how it is in the pictures and the beds were great! The location was perfect. Will definitely be staying here again. One of the best vacations we’ve ever had.

The view and proximity to the beach were great & 100% accurate!The cleanliness of the condo could be improved for sure. There were socks under the bed that weren't ours as an example, and pancake batter(?) on the counter I used my finger to gently scratch to see if it would come off.General updating/up-keep and a few fresh coats of paint would go a long way. Multiple towel bars were not installed but laying around in closets etc. Walls and trim were dirty with multiple patched areas on the walls. One bathroom door looked like it had water damage and the guest room wall looked as it had as well. All the drawers in the kitchen lacked drawer pulls which wasn't a huge deal- just annoying. The owners were great at responding which was awesome & so appreciated!
Great location, very clean! Loved the balcony. Big plus was the three beach chairs to use on our pretty days without having to go buy some (we flew in). My daughter was comfy on the pull out sofa bed in living room. :). Would stay again
This was an amazing place to stay. The condo was as described and the host was super responsive. Beautiful location and the place was very clean and cozy. We will
Definitely look to book here again.
Great location, out of the hustle and bustle of Destin but close enough to make a quick trip if need be. The unit and facility was very well kept. Very close to the beach. Will definitely stay again!
The condo was beautiful. And the view of the ocean, spectacular!! We celebrated our 50th anniversary there. The owners were good answering any questions I had.
Absolutely LOVED our time in your condo! We had a wonderful time all week. The weather cooperated and we had beautiful sunshiny skies with only 1 day of rain. But even a day with rain was amazing!
This was the perfect spot for a quiet and relaxed getaway. The amenities offered kept our visit completely stress-free, even with many areas in town being closed for the holiday. The neighbors were extremely friendly, and the guys at the guard house very helpful. And the beach access was fantastic!
The beach couldn't be nicer, the sand was as soft as corn starch. Definitely a bonus having the beach service included. The extra beach toys were very much appreciated. I wish there was at least salt and more than a half roll of toilet paper upon arrival. Will definitely be back to this slice of heaven on earth.
Overall good experience. Basic kitchen supplies. Floor tile was in need of a good cleaning. Bath towels were thin. Nice location. Glad beach chairs and umbrella were included at the beach. Would stay there again.

Condo was very clean, amenities were as stated, beautiful setting on the Gulf of Mexico.
It also was very quiet and peaceful, El Matador is the last condos on the west side of Oskaloosa Island. The only recommendation I could make is replacing the dishwasher. Other than that it was great!
We have spent many enjoyable vacations at El Matador. The property is well maintained and we like that the beach is not overcrowded. The only downside to our stay in 367 was that we saw both adult and small roaches in the kitchen area. I was distressed that we would bring them back to our home. I hope this is issue is addressed by the owners.

We are so sorry that you had this incident during your stay. We were informed by the El Matador complex that the whole building was having issues with roaches, not just our unit, and they were luckily able to identify the issue and exterminate the problem quickly. We are so thankful not to have had any more issues or reports of roaches since then.
