According to the property's I.T. supervisor, a "homey environment" is the atmosphere that Sun Vista RV Resort has the goal of emulating. He also mentions that the location of the resort gives off a "mini-city vibe." One particular guest who previously stayed at the resort remarks, "We don't need to leave the grounds to do something different every day. Well-kept grounds and interior areas. Love the outdoor and indoor pools and hot tubs." The front desk staff tries to interact with guests frequently throughout the day, and they put forth the effort to assist visitors with any questions or concerns they may have, hoping to allow their guests to feel more comfortable. The number of visitors to the business tends to go up from about September to April, which is consequently the busiest season of the year for Sun Vista RV Resort.
Policies that guests are expected to act in accordance with are implemented at the resort. Pets are allowed to stay on the grounds, provided that the pet is forty pounds or less.

The Sun Vista RV Resort has always been an RV resort since it was first established in 1984. Before the acreage had official plans to become a resort, it was formerly an empty lot that only had the main building and very few RV sites. Over time, aside from standard maintenance, the Sun Vista RV Resort underwent some updates. The dirt areas of the premises were paved, and commodities such as the provisions of internet and cable were added for guest use. One of the staff mentions that during the less busy seasons, when the property often receives fewer visitations, the owners try to acquire new amenities with the intention to further enhance the overall experience for future visitors.
