A must every summer!

July 12, 2020

I have been staying at The Vista for years. Wonderful place to stay and it gets better all the time! Very clean, great staff, lovely view and a POOL!

Even in the time of Covid-19, they went to great lengths to assure everyone’s safety and social distance.

Convenient location to the beach, downtown Gloucester and Rockport. A true gem!!

Nicest people

July 6, 2020

This hotel has stunning views of the beach. You could not ask for nicer people. Went out of their way to be as accommodating as possible during this COVID season. Beds a little hard. My only issue was the inability to get onto the beach. The town was only allowing residents on. I had called the town ahead of time and was told that non residents were being allowed on the beach only to find out that only depended on how quickly the lot filled up and how many people were on the beach. The hotel is situated on a very steep hill that my quest and i were unable to walk up due to physical limitation so we could not walk to the beach. I was told they were turning non residents away event if they walked. we spent a considerable amount of money to stay here and i would absolutely return but only if we were guaranteed beach access.

We always enjoy our stay at the Vista. The room and the bathroom are very clean, the efficiency well equipped, the towels and sheets are of good quality. The view is beautiful and the lawn and the pool are well kept. The room service is perfect.

There are beautiful jelly fish on the right side of the ocean just over the bridge. Beach is carry in carry out.

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.

The view is lovely. It was not very busy when we were there but there was a nice continental breakfast available.

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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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!
