Our week at LaVista was wonderful! The property location is perfect. It's close enough to walk any where you need to, but out of the hustle and bustle. The view from our balcony was lovely to wake up to each morning. The property was clean, and staff was helpful any time we had a question or need. Will definitely return soon!
