I've driven by this motel for years and always wondered what it would be like to turn a day trip to the beach into an overnight at this beautifully landscaped motel on a hill with a view of Good Harbor Beach...and finally did it over Memorial Day weekend. It was just terrific. Clean and welcoming with a lovely pool...and from... more

I was in town for business, thw room was outdated but VERY clean, my issue was with the woman at the front desk, she was just RUDE, and thats what I will remember about her, when someone is standing in front of you get off the phone, DO NOT argue with the guest. I would like to visit again but... more

We had a wonderful time at the Vista. Actually we had only planned to spend one night in Gloucester and then head on to Acadia. But we liked it so much we stayed another night. We picked the Vista from our navi and when actually seeing it hoped for them to have any rooms available. Since it being past 6pm,... more

My wife and I stayed in a second floor efficiency room which had a king size bed and overlooked a beautiful swimming pool below. The room was spacious, confortable, and included all the essentials. The view from the balcony was fantastic, and included Good Harbor Beach, Twin Lights on distant Thatcher Island, and a saltmarsh filled with egrets and even... more

Guests were thoughtful, quiet, and everything was wonderful. Hope you... more

We stayed in a nice effiiciency, spacious enough for a family of 4. The complimentary breakfast was the usual donuts/pastries/cereals but the variety was nice. Also liked the pool and pool towels with a view of the beach. Great views and easy access to beach, it's just across the road. The Vista also offered discounted parking passes for the beach--nice... more

We wanted a quick "We have never have been to Gloucester" getaway (From Hartford CT) for a Saturday night. Many hotels/ inns in the Rockport/ Gloucester area have a minimum 2 night stay and many were already booked. Fortunately the Vista didn’t have a minimum and wasn’t filled. I booked through calling the motel directly. The woman asked me if... more
