I just had a fantastic stay at The Sandalwood! Mark and Vanessa were incredibly welcoming from the moment I arrived. The room, while a bit snug in the bathroom area, was clean and provided a comfortable bed for a restful night’s sleep. Breakfast was a highlight—cooked perfectly and beautifully presented, setting me up for the day ahead. Overall, it was a lovely experience, and I would definitely consider returning for a longer stay next time!
