Nicest Florida trip yet!
April 2024
The condo was excellent, plenty of room, amazing view, full kitchen, perfect distance from beach! We were also very close to Eglin Airforce base, we were able to see a few really awesome aircraft throughout the day from the balcony, but if you are inside the condo you can rarely hear the planes at all. The best part is that you are close to everything, but far enough away to avoid crowds!
Great time

Just what we needed for a month. Condo could have been a bit more updated but bathroom tub very nice. Most everything we needed was in condo. During heavy rain windows leaked a bit. Bedroom smelled a bit musty probably cause of leaks and carpet in bedroom. Great view and we enjoyed and had a great time!

We were very pleased with the condo.
Great view and location but could use some TLC

We have stayed at other properties at the El Matador, but this was our first stay at this condo. The location and view are amazing but this condo needs some updating and TLC. The floors and carpet were so dirty we had to wear shoes inside or our feet turned black. The ceiling fan in the living room was missing a blade and did not turn on. The bedroom was stuffy and did not seem to be getting enough air. When we brought all this up at check out we were told all this just happened before our arrival but no offer was made to compensate. Also little things like providing a box fan for the bedroom would go a long way.
