When I arrived I went straight to my room and dropped off my luggage then roamed around the property. I felt extremely safe at that moment and for the rest of my stay. The property from the moment we turned onto the driveway was breath taking. I sat on the porch waiting for my friend to arrive. Upon her arrival she was also impressed and so happy we chose to stay here. The rooms were great. I was at Cobb Island. Roomy bathroom, air conditioner window unit, ceiling fan, large windows, comfortable bedding and a curtain to draw in front of the door for added privacy. My friend stayed in the Rogue Island suite. There was no air conditioner in the room but two fans available. The sun comes shining into that room heavily in the morning. Nice view of the water. Bathroom is a little small, but perfect for one. The room itself is perfect for one, maybe two if it's a short stay. My friends words on her stay: "The room was smaller, but comfortable and perfect if we weren't planning on spending too much time. It wasn't too small, just smaller -perfect for a single occupancy. The grounds were gorgeous and I appreciated the hands off approach. The company in the morning was lovely. I loved all of the different amenities and areas of the house we had access to to suit our needs. Breakfast in the morning was simple and perfect. The first morning was this amazing quiche.... Hoping to get that recipe to add to my cookbook, sliced strawberries and coffee. The second morning was a scrumptious banana bread, sliced strawberries and a simply seasoned fried egg. It was all delightful. You have access to the kitchen whenever you want. We brought lunch back and ate it outside. There is a fire pit out back you can use. Some notes: there are some fine tuning things that could be taken care of by a grounds keeper or anyone else. Trimming back the foliage going down to the dock, spraying for bees in the white covered "shed" near the water, clearing leaves from the pool, replacing burnt light bulbs and a major dusting inside and outside, especially outside on all the porches. Otherwise it was very clean. In the end we enjoyed our stay and look forward to stay again!! I'm easy to book again.

My wife and I have a passion for traveling, and share a special penchant for specialty B&B's. The…read moreTruitt House was an exceptional find. We were booked into the inn by a client who wanted to make our first visit to Suffolk a memorable one. The home is a true Southern belle - a grand dame of historic mansions. It has been so lovingly restored and is perfectly appointed. We had so much fun exploring every inch of the home and absorbing its character. The proprietor (and very talented chef) Ruth has mastered the art of hospitality, inviting us to truly make the home our own. She didn't mind one bit that we planted ourselves in the reclining leather chairs in the stately octagonal library with another couple and yakked enthusiastically until the wee hours. After a blissful night sleep, breakfast the following morning was a marvelous affair. We prepped a coffee for ourselves at the Nespresso machine (fantastic!) and meandered around the grounds until the heavenly smell of baking croissants lured us to the elegant, light-filled breakfast room. Usually an eat-and-run proposition for us, we lingered for over an hour enjoying the delectable food and the conversation with the other guests. The charm of the house and its gracious owner had worked its magic - we were refreshed, satiated and inspired. We departed with great reluctance but the spirit of the Truitt house hung about us for the rest of the day and onto the next as we traveled home. You do not want to miss this unique and unforgettable travel experience - 5 gold stars!!!

The mansion, built long ago, has been restored and updated in every category. I've stayed at lots of B&Bs to find them "charming but in need of modern updates." This place has that without losing its original charm from 1909. Because I'm here for work, I'm purposely spending all my time at the house when not on location and I love to be able to move from study to library to the atrium and other rooms in order to read and for a change of atmosphere. Every room is unique and has a story. You'll love Ruth who will make your stay feel like you've come home to the family estate. Breakfast is made to order and she loves knowing what you like. Casual and comfy. Two words to describe the experience in this amazing, palatial mansion.

The hallways to and from the restaurant are large and very inviting, beautifully decorated. There is a bar area that I think opens at 5pm. What really sticks out in my mind is everything is clean . I have stayed in hotels on the oceanfront that were extremely overpriced and dirty with the smell of weed everywhere. Not in Founders Inn and Spa. It smells clean and wonderful even in the hallways. The room was the perfect size for my friend and I and the amenities are amazing. Indoor and outdoor pools, we swam in both and they are beautiful. Pictures will be included with this review. The chairs by the pool are new and fancy they work well and just grab a towel on your way in and put it in the laundry basket on the way out. There are beautiful areas that look like English gardens to walk through with roses in them and gorgeous hardwood floors in the lobby and sitting areas. They have a lovely area with marble flooring that could be used as a first dance area for a wedding. If I was getting married again this is where I would go. There are brick walkways to and from the buildings where rooms are and where the Flowering Almond Spa is located. It is a calm and peaceful oasis in the middle of Virginia Beach. I'm not ending this review without telling you how beautiful and yummy the Swan Terrace Restaurant ( that is located inside the hotel) is for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We ate all three meals there and each were so good! It's so wonderful to swim, sit in the sun and then go shower in our room and dress up fancy (if you want to) then walk to the Swan Terrace Restaurant and have an amazing meal. Breakfast has a huge buffet with made to order omelets which my friend loved and pretty much anything else you can think of bacon, eggs, breakfast potatoes, make your own waffles, bagels, fresh fruit, grits ( one of my favorites) the list goes on and on and that was on a Monday morning. Then lunch is also a buffet with make your own salad options, homemade dressings, fresh fruit cut beautifully and lots of options from soup to grilled salmon, sliced chicken with a glaze and even chicken and dumplings. Then at the end of the buffet they had beautiful homemade desserts. Yum!!! I enjoyed our stay so much, it was so relaxing and awesome to be able to focus on reconnecting with a friend and not worry about anything else. We sat outside in two chairs by the pond that has a fountain in the center. We watched the ducks swim that we found out were actually rescued from a shelter. They are very happy ducks now and very beautiful. They swim around and it is so peaceful watching them and just talking with no worries. We met some great people just sitting in those chairs watching the ducks. Thank you Sam and Rachel for the great conversation. I can say definitely we will be back whether for a weekend getaway or a small vacay. The rooms are priced reasonably and the food is also. Bravo, Founders Inn and Swan Terrace Restaurant! Bravo!!! Encore Encore! We will be back soon, looking very forward to going back soon.
