About the host
Hosted by Liz
My family owns this property. We live in near by Los Gatos. We live close to this property and provide a well maintained vacation rental. We also enjoy staying in the house from time to time. The house is always in good condition for our guests.
Why they chose this property
The Catholic Church sold us this beach house. The priest built the house and the nuns were living in it. The nuns were so grateful to live in the beach house. They referred to the house as living in a area everyone wants to visit. We even have a church pew bench. We remodeled the house and turned it into a short term vacation rental to share with others.
What makes this property unique
Ocean front view of the bay leading across to Monterey. West Cliff is a linear park you can walk along the ocean or ride your bike for miles. Clean and well maintained house. Spectacular views.
