Direct Beach/ocean view. Everything was great

Great location and a great view of the beach. The pool was very well maintained, but the building is a little worn. The room was a pictured but the beds are not good, the sliding glass door to the balcony was very hard to open and close and the chairs out there were not good for sitting and no table. The AC makes a terrible noice when it comes on and remains very loud.

We had a wonderful spring break. Room was nice and had a fantastic view. Only thing missing was a hairdryer. We did not pack one expecting this to be provided. But otherwise a great experience.

Pros of this property: perfect setting and fantastic view. Really enjoyed getting acquainted with New Smyrna Beach and all it has to offer. The property was reasonably clean and comfortable. The furniture is old and needs cleaning/updating, but clearly the kitchen has been updated as well as the flooring. The nonstick pans in the kitchen are horrible (we like to prepare some of our meals in the condo, so this was disappointing.) Cons: communication with the host was not always helpful. Her vacation rental company uses its own billing system, but that was not explained to us. We realized a few weeks before our vacation that we had not been billed and were frantically trying to make sure that we had a place to stay. It was very hard to get an answer. We had been issued a bizarre parking pass, an 8 1/2 by 11 laminated sheet that we were supposed to put on the driver's side dashboard. It was impossible to drive with that sheet in place, so we would move it. On the one day that we forgot to put it in place (it was clearly visible on the back seat), the owner of Ocean Trillium started towing all the vehicles that didn't have a permit in the driver's side dash. We were not the only ones having trouble with the makeshift permits because several vehicles of people who were renting there and legitimately parked were towed. It cost us 40 for an Uber, several hours of a vacation day, and 150 to get our car back. So far, no one has offered us any compensation. We won't be back.
