Back in the day, it even charmed Alfred Hitchcock, the famous director, who owned a luxury house on 200 acres in the Santa Cruz Mountains, where he and his wife Alma held lavish parties for such personalities as Grace Kelly, Ingrid Bergman or Prince Rainier.
And if, over time, you happen to get bored of the view of the wide blue ocean, you can visit the well-known theme park Boardwalk. Why wouldn't you? It's still a long way to Disneyland!
