About this property

The Small Sandalwood -"Sandalito"· Private Suite, curated for comfort & privacy.

El Pequeño Sándalo “Sandalito” – The Small Sandalwood Suite is small but mighty, a thoughtfully curated, air-conditioned private suite designed for single occupancy. With a secure private entrance, full bathroom, and fully equipped kitchenette, it offers comfort, efficiency, and independence. Quiet and functional, it’s ideal for traveling nurses, professionals, or solo adventurers, centrally located near hospitals, schools, shops, and freeways.

Located in a quiet and safe neighborhood, the Little Sandalwood -"Sandalito" Suite offers easy access to local stores, hospitals, restaurants, and major roadways, making it an ideal choice for both short-term and extended stays.

Sandalwood Drive continues to stand out for well-maintained homes, communal pride, and close-knit neighbors—traits typical of one of the city’s first and most prestigious streets.


Side note: The property includes the Sandalwood home and one fully independent, detached studio—each with its own private and secure entrance. These units do not share any interior space with The Small Sandalwood suite and do not affect your privacy or security in any way.

We regularly visit El Centro and truly enjoy staying in our Sandalwood House, which sits next to The Small Sandalwood. It’s a peaceful, comfortable space that we hope you’ll enjoy just as much.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchenette and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker and a dining table.
