Thoughtfully designed with multiple living areas and a seamless layout, The Vista offers privacy, confidence, and ease — just minutes from downtown St. John’s.

Your stay is supported by Newfoundland Vacation Rentals, a locally based team dedicated to thoughtful, responsive hosting across Newfoundland & Labrador.

We’re here to make your stay comfortable, easy, and enjoyable. You can expect clear communication before your arrival, a smooth self-guided check-in process, and support throughout your stay should any questions or needs arise.

Our goal is to be available when you need us, while also giving you the space and privacy to fully enjoy The Vista at Quidi Vidi. If anything comes up before, during, or after your stay, we’re always just a message away.

The Vista is located in Quidi Vidi Village, one of St. John’s most iconic and historic neighbourhoods — a place where natural beauty, creativity, and local life intersect.

Set along the edge of Quidi Vidi Lake and the famous “Gut,” the village feels tucked away and peaceful, yet remains just minutes from downtown St. John’s. Guests love the balance of being immersed in nature while still having easy access to restaurants, shops, and city amenities.

From the house, you can enjoy scenic walking trails, lake and harbour views, and the quiet rhythm of village life. It’s a neighbourhood known for its artists, makers, and outdoor enthusiasts — a place where mornings are slow, evenings are calm, and the landscape is always present.

You’re welcome to make yourself at home, whether that means relaxing in the living areas, preparing meals in the well-equipped kitchen, gathering around the dining table, or retreating to the bedrooms at the end of the day.

Outdoor spaces are also fully accessible. Enjoy views of Quidi Vidi Lake and Village, take in the fresh coastal air, or unwind on the patio or balcony while soaking in the surrounding landscape.

Overlooking Quidi Vidi Lake, the Village, and the iconic gut, the home pairs sweeping views with a layout that works effortlessly for group travel.

A half bath on the main level ensures added convenience for groups.

With air conditioning in every room, the home offers year-round comfort.

For guests who value balance while travelling, the home also includes a private gym area with a stationary bike, free weights, power rack, and yoga space — a rare feature in Quidi Vidi and ideal for maintaining routines or unwinding after a day outdoors.

Outdoor spaces extend the experience beyond the walls of the home. Enjoy quiet mornings overlooking the lake, take in village rooftops and harbour views, or wind down in the evening after exploring nearby trails and the lake loop.

Located in the heart of Quidi Vidi Village, The Vista offers the character and calm of the gut while remaining just minutes from downtown St. John’s, major routes, and acclaimed dining. Private on-site parking adds ease for guests arriving from near or far.

    We have stayed in a lot of vacation spots and this home is close to the top! Highlights for us were the well stocked, spacious kitchen, garden deck with blooming peonies, comfortable beds and crisp linens, well furnished and designer feel rooms, and across the street access to Quidi Vidi lake for a daily walk. We also enjoyed a quick walk to Mallard Cottage for dinner and a hike up Sugar Loaf trail. All of the charm of St John’s with high end comforts!
