Hadn't seen any reviews on AAA or TripAdvisor on the motel and was concerned it might be a dump. It was only mentioned in CapeAnnVacations.com. It was a very pleasant surprise. All rooms overlooking the water, patios outside the rooms. Very pleasant staff, pool, passes available for the beach (about 1/4 - 1/2 mile away). Rooms were dated. Refrigerators in the rooms.

My wife and I stayed here 7/24-7/28. Everybody associated with the motel was extremely nice and knowledgable of the area. Well kept rooms- wonderful donuts, cakes ,cereal and coffee at breakfast time. Great beach right nearby with a $10 parking discount given to guests. Great recommendations for dinner and directions to nearby towns.

My family and I stayed at the Vista for 5 nights. It was fabulous! We have usually rented houses at Good Harbor Beach and this was by far the most relaxing week we've had in Gloucester. The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very family friendly with games for the kids, a large lawn for soccer and wiffle ball and a great pool to chill out at after a day at the beach. We loved having a mini fridge for juice and items for the kids, and they loved the donuts at breakfast.
We'll be back next year!

The Vista is a very nice place to stay when you're visiting Gloucester. The view from the motel is second to none and you're within walking distance to Good Harbor Beach. Good Harbor Beach is one of the best beaches you'll ever see. Little kids will love the pond, created when the tide goes out. Lots of little fish and crabs for the kids to catch.

The staff at the Vista is wonderful. They will go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable. Little extras include free WI-FI access, newspapers, and a complimentary continental breakfast. Most of all, the team is friendly and glad you're there.

This is our third time staying at the Vista and I'm sure we'll be back again next year.
