This was a great place to stay. The condo looked exactly like it appeared on the website. The view from the balcony of the beach was perfect! The location of the condo is close to everything.The owners were extremely nice. They were so easy to deal with and quick to respond to my emails. They were very detailed about what to expect and provided all the access information we needed for everything. The whole condo was clean, and we had everything we needed and more. They even provided beach toys and boogie boards for us if we had wanted to use them. We had other family members staying at the same resort and they told us how ours was much nicer than their condo.We will definitely stay in this condo again. This was one of the best experiences dealing with VRBO from dealing with the owners to "getting what you hope you get". We would highly recommend this condo!
We’ve stayed in #226 before and loved the close proximity to the beach! And now that it’s been remodeled it’s even better!!! We loved it and our stay was awesome! The condo is so pretty!
we enjoyed our stay! The place was perfect and my kids loved the set up! The only thing we didn’t like was it was hard to find the access to the beach.
The beach view was stunning and the condo was perfect other than one bathroom issue. We would definitely book the same condo again. The free beach chairs were icing on the cake.
Condo was very clean , great location to everything. We will book again.

Response from VrboOwner on Apr 1, 2020
Thank you so much for coming!!! We're so glad to hear that it went well and hope to see you again! Safe travels!!!
This is by far the best place we’ve stayed in Panama City Beach! The property was recently renovated with so much attention to detail. It was extremely clean and well cared for. Even the kitchen was stocked far better with great cookware and anything we could imagine. The owners were very friendly and responsive to any questions we had. This is a large building but the check-in process and access to the beach made it not feel that way at all. I would 100% stay here again!
We were able to stay for a long weekend and everything was as described in the listing. The owner’s communication was great. We would definitely stay here again.

2week stay
Great location. Close to shops and great restaurants. Beautiful sandy beach. Second level condo was wonderful for beach access and view. Beach chairs and umbrella were provided which was great. Would definitely return !
This was our second stay at this condo and we loved it yet again. We love the convenient location to restaurants. The condo is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We will be there again.
Beautiful view!! Easy access to the beach from condo. Loved having the beach loungers and umbrella each day. Great location. Walkable to many restaurants
This place was perfect, I almost hate to rate it so high because it will be booked next time I want it! I had a problem with the tv and I text the owner and they responded almost immediately. Very clean, all the amenities you could need when away from home. Except toilet paper, ! Great place and thank you Ed for allowing us to use you place and a great vacation.

About the host
Hosted by Ed Rickers (owner), Yulia Rickers (Manager)
Ed & Celeste Rickers We've been married 32 years and have five children, and 5 grandchildren and we're still honeymooning:-)!!! Trips to the beach are definitely part of our 'magic.'
Ed's mother moved 35 miles north of here around 1994 so our five children grew up coming to PCB and Shell Island for family vacations. We absolutely LOVE it here and love sharing the experience with others.
We purchased a one-bedroom condo in 2009 for Ed's father to spend the winters and for our vacations, and for sharing too. We now have more than 220 reviews in our four condos with a 4.8-star average in each condo.
We added a two-bedroom in 2015, vrbo.com/815352. We have more than 88 reviews with a 4.8-star average. We added a four-bedroom condo in 2018, vrbo.com/1328254 and we have 57 reviews with a 4.8-star average.
Yulia is our daughter-in-law. She immigrated from Ukraine in 2008 and married our son Spencer in 2016 and they a four-year-old son and a newborn son (April 29, 2021). They currently live in Meas, AZ where Spencer is attending his fourth year of dental school. They've been to the condo many times and love the beach.
What makes this Condo unique? We offer our causal beachy no-rules vibe with quality and elegance combined with personalized service because we love it when people care enough about themselves and their loved ones to enjoy a beach vacation and enrich their lives with what we call "vitamin sea."
Why they chose this property
We like Emerald Beach managed by Wyndham International. They do a great job managing the resort and provide service that's second to none.
What makes this property unique
You get to work with Yulia, our daughter-in-law. Yulia is an immigrant from Ukraine. She put herself through college in a foreign land and our son was so lucky to meet and marry her. Yulia goes the extra mile because she LOVES making your family trip successful. She LOVES getting to know our guests and she often does extra things for birthdays, anniversaries, etc. She's wonderful and you'll love her and come back again and again like sooo many of our other regular guests.
For instance, here's the latest review (May 2022):
Emery Caroline L.Birmingham Wow, where to even begin! I traveled here with three of my friends to celebrate graduating college. Knowing this, Ed and Yulia left us a very thoughtful graduation gift, complete with a balloon and card! This was just the icing on the cake of a wonderful stay. Unloading and parking was very easy, and the resort staff was friendly and helpful. The building is very clean and we had no issues with elevators being slow. The beach was so accessible and the chairs and umbrellas were an amazing part of our stay. The condo itself is GORGEOUS. Seriously, we felt so pampered. Everything was super clean and homey, and the decor was delightfully beachy. The view from the balcony is incredible!!! The weather was perfect too which just added to the stay. From start to finish, our trip was so easy. After seven hours of driving the smooth check in process and stay was much appreciated. Would love to come back as a reunion!
