We have been coming to Sandalwood for a few years now. We always stay in Unit 355. We call ahead on the toll free number and reserve Unit 355. This unit is on the 3rd floor, and we take the elevator (or use the stairs). Not all units are updated and well maintained. Unit 355 is updated (has new flat screen T.V. in living room, new ceramic tiles on floor). Furniture is fairly modern and clean (please see photos). Beautiful bedroom set and nice living room coffee table, accent tables, etc. Windows have newer blinds. Bathroom has a nice shower. The kitchenette is equipped with all utensils, a toaster, microwave oven, stove and refrigerator. Air conditioning is quiet and works great!
This is a poolside unit, but from the kitchen and living room windows you can see the beach and the Doubletree hotel next door. Prices are very reasonable for this fabulous location, just yards away from the beach. We checked other hotels nearby, but the Sandalwood is our preference. The pool is located in a open courtyard. It is solar heated and always kept clean.
There is a restaurant on site, laundry facilities on the main floor, and an ice machine. Towels and trash are changed daily, and bedding weekly (or when a new guest comes in).
The staff is friendly and helpful. Please make up your own mind about this hotel. Yes, the building style is older but...We have been coming to Sandalwood for a few years now.

The staff is friendly and helpful. Please make up your own mind about this hotel. Yes, the building style is older but if you're expecting the Plaza Hilton for this price, you won't find it here. We stayed once at the Doubletree next door and paid a lot more. The Doubletree room was gulf front, but the room needed updating. Curtains, bedspread and furniture was very dated. We went into Sandalwood, were taken to look at Unit 355 and that is how we found this gem.
The bus stops right in front of the Sandalwood. Parking is free. We love this place and feel at home in Unit 355. We've seen other units, but like this unit the best so we keep coming back. Fabulous beach and beautiful sunsets!More
