We had a great time at El Matador 147! Stylish and modern decor in a cute beachy theme. The view out to the water is even better than the pictures in the listing. Communication was good, everything was easy and we felt welcome. Would definitely stay again!

We were so happy with this rental- the condo was clean, well-decorated, and exactly as listed on the website. The location was great, especially being right on the beach with private beach access. We so appreciated having beach chairs/umbrella included with our rental, and the host left us donuts from the local donut shop upon check in which was a really sweet gesture. The hosts were very easy to contact too, and quick to respond to questions. I would recommend this condo to anyone looking to stay in Okaloosa Island!

Great space and good beach location. We really liked that the chairs & umbrella came with the rental. My parents rented a unit directly through el Matador but their unit did not include the chair rentals. We loved our welcome donuts and the cleanliness of the unit, thank you! For dinner, we took out several nights from the seafood spot down the street (Stewbys) which was awesome!

We arrived and the space was very clean! It is a short walk to the beautiful beach. Due to it being colder, we didn't utilize the pool that is on the beach but did let the kids play in the heated pool, which they enjoyed! Overall this was an exceptional place and our family would love to revisit in the future.

Such a cute, clean place! The bed set up was great for us and our three kids. We had what we needed and between the beach so close and a heated pool, we had a great time even in 60weather in December. Sunny afternoon deck, great suggestions for restaurants provided, and yummy donuts too! They responded quickly to a minor repair and were friendly hosts.

Beautifully decorated rental close to the beach! We had a couple of nights at the beach and were not disappointed. The bunk room was a perfect fit for our little ones. We easily walked across the parking lot to the beach entry with showers. The locals info in the condo was a perk as this was new territory for us. Carey Sue added a special touch to celebrate our sons birthday. So thoughtful!
