The Vista is fantastic!!

October 14, 2025

Stayed here for a week and had a wonderful time. The view is amazing! I lucked out with a Super Harvest Moon rising over the ocean, gorgeous sunrises, and beautifully lit skies at sunset. I also enjoyed hearing the duck families chatting in the distance as I was able to open the balcony door for fresh sea air! The accommodations are lovely and everyone is super nice!!

Quaint hotel

Rooms were spacious, and the bed was comfortable. Great view from our balcony to the ocean. Complimentary breakfast was good, also with a beautiful view. Will definitely stay here again in the future.

Our Family stayed here for a couple days for a family reunion down the street, this place is really nice and clean across from the beach. Thank you Robin for taking good care of us. See you next summer.

Vista to the rescue!

September 24, 2025

My husband and I had to abandon a self check-in place nearby because, after 2 hours, we could not be checked into a fully working, operational apartment. So, at 9:30 pm after 7 hours in the car and 2 hours of no help, a local friend sent us to Vista. What a change! Robin at the desk was so warm and caring. The room was clean and comfortable and the view was gorgeous. The breakfast is great and the entire staff are also so warm and welcoming. They also love the owner so it’s like staying with family! We had a lovely long weekend and will certainly return!

It has been a while since my last stay at the Vista and this time it felt like coming home 🙂

Thank you for being so accommodating! Room 25 has a beautiful view and was immaculate!

I can’t wait to go back! See you soon!

A wonderful locally owned establishment. Quiet quaint lodging off the beaten path with an ocean view. Waking up in the morning and sitting out on the patio eating breakfast and smelling the ocean breeze is absolutely wonderful

Rooms were very clean. Great view. The area is quite expensive, it is easy to cook in the kitchen if you choose to. There are beautiful jelly fish on the right side of the ocean just over the bridge. Beach is carry in carry out.

Very nice clean motel. This is our 1st stat at Vista, and we will be returning. We met the owner, who is a very nice and helpful gentleman. The location on top a hill makes for good viewing and picture taking. They have a pool, but wasn't open for the season , yet. Our next trip in May, we will enjoy the pool.

I have known about the Vista for years and had been told to stay there. I finally did and was not disappointed. It is within walking distance to Good Harbor Beach and within about a mile of some great restaurants.

Thank you, Bob, I'm so glad you enjoyed your visit. I hope we see you again soon! Best, Laura

The Vista is a lovely older hotel located very close to Good Harbor Beach in Gloucester. The staff are friendly and helpful. The view is lovely. It was not very busy when we were there but there was a nice continental breakfast available.

Hôtel choisi pour le tournoi de hokey de notre fils . Nous avons passé une nuit à l’hôtel. Les chambres sont beaucoup plus belle en vrai qu’en photo. C’est très propre et l’hôtel est très bien entretenu. La dame qui nous m’accueillie fut souriante! gentille et très professionnelle.

Merci beacoup! I'm so glad you enjoyed your visit and I hope we'll see you again. Best, Laura

The Vista has become our family tradition vacation spot, we keep coming back once or twice a year! Excellent staff, family friendly, superb continental breakfast, spaceous rooms for families with kids. If you are seeking an affordable getaway for a family of five with three younger kids then this is the place to be, including the said eateries I noted, you will have the most awesome experience here, every stay!
