We went to VA Beach over Labor Day weekend and found Petie and Phil to be the most gracious hosts we've ever had in a B&B. We've never had three breakfasts over three days that were as good, as different, and as enjoyable as these were. And our room that opened onto the pool was one of the most comfortable of any inn we've ever stayed in. We'll find or way back there again! Thanks.

I was excited about the weekend I planned around this bed and breakfast. The amenities I read online were too good to be true, and I was glad I picked this bed and breakfast. I loved the room and the way the house was set up, I thought it was lovely. But, when it came to the amenities I expected to recieve, I didn't recieve. I felt uncomfortable after I realized the bed and breakfast was also the owner's residence, and I started thinking about their comfortablity. I had very heavy correspondence with the owner about my diet accomodations (vegan), but, when it came to the breakfast, she didn't fix what I had told her I could eat off of her menu. She had to "figure out" what to give me, and I could tell she was frustrated with my diet restrictions. I was disappointed and upset, I felt bad because everyone else that was there didn't have the dietary restrictions that I had; I felt uncomfortable and like an outkast. I figured for the amount of money I paid, I could at least get a breakfast that I could eat. The time I expected to have I did not have. I expected to get more than what I paid. But all in all, the atmostphere was wonderful and Petie is great.

Phil and Pete (the innkeepers) work very hard to make each guests experience enjoyable. We had a wonderful time at the inn enjoying the outdoor and indoor hot tubs, swimming pool, lounging by the pool. The inn is maintained at very high quality standards and is very clean. Petie and Phil are very thoughtful and their guests comfort and convenience was clearly their consideration. We were welcomed to the room with homebaked cookies and a bottle of wine. The breakfast was AMAZING! It was a three course meal, served to us over a stretch of an hour. We loved the experience and will be going back very soon! :)

Petie and Phil (the innkeepers) made this B&B experience the best we could have ever asked for. They provided us with exceptional service and were ever present to all our needs and desires. Everything in the B&B was designed keeping the guest's comfort in mind. We had a bottle of wine waiting for us in the room when we checked in along with homebaked yummy cookies. I am a very pickey person when it comes to quality and everything in this B&B matched my quality standards. A combination of the service, comfort and convenience made us feel just like home. The breakfast was excellent!! Petie should start a cooking school in the future. We had a 3 course breakfast which we chose to enjoy outside by the pool (we also had the option of sitting indoors). Their outdoor hot tub was a great spot to relax with a bottle of wine at the end of the day. Petie and Phil are wonderfully warm individuals who enjoy being host (and do a great job of it). We loved them both and will be back to virginia beach in a hurry to visit them!

The Country Villa B&B Inn is a wonderful find. From my first conversation with Petie, the innkeeper, I knew this was a special place. She made sure that she knew our likes and dislikes before we ever arrived. She has done an amazing job in decorating the entire residence to provide for a very romantic experience. The candles were burning and a bottle of wine awaited when we arrived. As we were sitting by the pool, she brought us freshly baked cookies. It was my birthday, so there was a birthday greeting in our room. We had a very enjoyable evening and ended it in the jetted tub! How relaxing! The next morning, breakfast, or breakfeast as it should be called, was delicious! Fresh fruit, all the kinds that we liked, were our first course. Then came the egg dishes - prepared expertly and just delicious. The dessert course, stuffed French toast, was the most delicious French toast I have ever eaten! And hospitality - when we were leaving, Petie noticed that we did not have beach chairs or an beach umbrella. She insisted that we take some from the inn and return them on our way home! What unexpected hospitality and they much needed for a day on the beach. If you want a romantic, amazing experience for just a night or a week, this is the place to go!

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon about a year ago and to this day we still talk about how wonderful it was and how we can't wait to go back. The scenery was peacful and beautiful. It felt like you had a whole hotel just to yourselves. And the BREAKFASTS!!! They were absolutley amazing. Everything was personalized from your room to your meals. We look forward to our next visit!!!

We adored the country villa inn! We just returned from a weekend in Virginia Beach to catch a concert and picked this B&B based on other reviews. Our stay was fantastic from the location, nearby beaches and easy drive to the ampitheater to the gourmet breakfasts, luxurious accomodations and friendly hostess! We look forward to returning next summer!

Before we arrived, Petie spent time getting to know our favorite foods, beverages, and how we wanted to spend our time. She made our dinner reservations after discussing dinner options. All area menus, directions and phone numbers in room. Also packed our car with beach accessories and ice for the cooler. Petie & Phil go "above & beyond" to share their surroundings. Did I say how gorgeous the place was?

We stayed for 3 nights and enjoyed every minute of it. The accomodations & hospitality were first rate and every breakfast was superb. The garden & pool area was a great place to relax and its proximity to the beach and a few good restaurants was perfect for us.

If you are looking for a place to get married in Virginia Beach, this is the place!!! We have been coming here for a few years now and would not have had our wedding any other place in the world! The Country Villa is romantic and beautiful. Petie is wonderful and can help you plan your Wedding Day just as she helped us plan ours. We had our ceremony in the back yard, where they have a picture perfect alter. After was cake and champagne. The cake was so beautifully decorated and tasty. The flowers were perfect, exactly what I wanted! (Thanks loved them) The photographer was so much fun! I laugh every time I think of him. After pictures around the lovely villa, we drove just a few minutes to the beach for more pictures! Then it was off by limo to a fabulous quiet romantic dinner for two! It truly was a fairytale wedding day! Our first day as husband and wife started with champagne mimosa and the most incredible stuffed French toast you ever want to taste! If you read through the other reviews about the food here, they are not kidding when they talk about Peties cooking! There is nothing that we would have changed or nothing else we could have asked for! We are from Pittsburgh and could not have managed any of this without Petie and Phil! Again, we cannot thank you enough! Mr. & Mrs. Weisbrod June 2009

We truly enjoyed our week stay at the B&B. The food, hospitality and atmosphere was wonderful. I can't express how enjoyable our vacation was, just because of our time at the villa. Petie is an outstanding cook, with an always pleasing attitude about things. Her and her husband open their house with open arms and you feel as is you are at home. We recommend this B&B, and plan to return ourselves.Thanks so much for eveything Petie & Phil. ~~ RJ & Kristen Longview, TX.~~

I was looking to try to find a nice place to take my fiance for her birthday. I did some searching online and the country villa popped up as I searched the VA beach area. I was astounded by the pictures thinking it was almost too good to be true. So, I started dialogue with the owner to reserve. Petie is as sweet as can be, she has a sincere love for what she does and it shows in the rooms and her meals. I would almost be willing to say I would pay just for the breakfasts she prepare and the snacks. The atmosphere was quiet, and home is lovely and it was nice that Petie and her husband were social. I would highly recommend Country Villa B & B to anyone looking for the perfect getaway with personalized attention. It was wonderful and I am looking forward to going again. Thank you for everything Petie, J G-B of Fredericksburg, VA

My wife and I found this B&B on the internet and made reservations somewhat last-minute. Even with the short notice Petie and Phil were wonderful and we were very pleased with every aspect of our stay; from the hour-long couples massage to the 3-course customized homemade breakfast we ate under the shade of the beautiful trees (which alone makes the stay worth every penny!). The room was clean and beautiful. There was a bottle of our favorite wine and some fresh cookies on our table when we arrived. If you like tea, Petie's collection is impressive! Thanks again for a wonderful visit!

Even though very much inspired by Phil and Peties beautiful website, nothing could have prepared us for the wonderful and unique experience of 'The Country Villa'. The welcome of folks whom you feel you have known all your life....the beautiful, meticulously decorated rooms....their amazing food. We felt truly catered for in every way. Nothing was a problem....nothing!! To appreciate, you must experience for yourself....... Our best wishes.....Stan & Leonie :)

Petey greeted us at the door and that set the graciousness and excellence for this 'home' bed and breakfast. She and her husband Phil could not have been better hosts. The room and bathroom were meticulous and beautiful, but the home made three course breakfast presented to us by Petey and Phil was nothing short of amazing. We left to head South to other B&B's but, thus far, nothing has compared. Do not miss this place if you are in the area.

This place is head and shoulders above so many others where we have stayed. Petie and Phil make you feel as if you can ask them for anything. When you are with them, you are family. Trust me, you will not want to leave and you will be completely ruined for all other inns in the future.

Loved the inn. Clearly the innkeeper has poured her heart and soal into this property. The rooms are lovely and she has many plans for updating the spa and grounds. Be sure to ask for a tour, Petie will be happy to show you. The location is away from the Virginia Beach scene, but an easy drive back to either the boardwalk or other local beaches nearby.

My husband and I stayed here for a get-away weekend and could not have been happier with the inn. Petie and Phil were fantastic -- so nice, and they struck the perfect balance of being super-accommodating to our needs while giving us an extraordinary amount of privacy. They made sure to make us feel like we weren't just renting the room -- we were renting the bottom floor of their home. We watched TV in a nearby sitting room and really felt at home. (Except without all of the distractions of home!) The breakfasts were unbelievable. My husband and I are major foodies and love to cook ourselves. I have to say that Petie really outdid herself with the excellence of the breakfasts. The eggs benedict (with homemade hollandaise and smoked salmon b/c it's my favorite) and the stuffed french toast were just to die for. Her chocolate chip cookies -- which were made available during the entire stay -- were fantastic. I can't say enough about the cleanliness of the inn. I am a neat freak and am always a bit squeamish about staying in hotels/inns. Petie was sure to let us know that she washes everything from the comforters to the pillow covers (the decorative ones) after each guest! You couldn't ask for more. The hot tub outside was terrific -- it's a very serene, private, and peaceful backyard. The bathrooms were fantastic -- beautiful tumbled marble soaking tubs and very spa-like. The inn is in a great location if you want to feel like you're in the country while being close to the beach. It's also close by to a very nice and private-feeling beach that is completely different from Va Beach's downtown area. It took us about 15 minutes to get to the beach, and about the same time to get to downtown Va Beach. I love bed and breakfasts, and I really doubt that I will ever get to stay in such a clean and welcoming and relaxing place again. Country Villa is really doing it right!!

This was a real treat not too far from home. The innkeepers were friendly and accomodating, paying extra special attention to our likes and dislikes. Our gourmet, three course breakfast was tailored to our dining requests. Everything was delicious and tastefully presented. The room and grounds were charming, I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy them more. The only thing I would have improved was a king size bed instead of a queen, but my husband is a big guy!

My husband and I spent several very restful and enjoyable days at the Country Villa Inn. Petie and Phil are wonderful hosts and have a beautiful home. The breakfasts were to die for, they were so good. The accomodations were romantic and tastefully decorated.

A fantastic place to go for some downtime. I am a very busy New Yorker and my time at Country Villa was very relaxing. The inn keeper and her husband were so welcoming and accomodating. My mom and I had a wonderful time eating Petie's mouth watering breakfast. We all became fast friends. I enjoyed the services almost as much as I loved their company. The rooms are cozy and the hot tub is a delight. The full body massage will leave you wanting more. I surely recommend this bed and breakfast to anyone who loves good food, beautiful suroundings and an inkeeper that makes you feel right at home.

Simply amazing does not completely express how my husband and I felt during our stay at Country Villa. It was our 15th wedding anniversary and the owners Phil & Petie really made us feel special. Petie greeted us with a huge smile and a batch of warm homemade cookies and our choice of beverage. The ambience throughout the entire bnb was so soothing....Petie definitely has a flare for decorating. Both Phil & Petie were very helpful with making recommendations and reservations for us at the local restaurants (which where delicious). But I will say that nothing holds a candle to any meal prepared by Petie in her kitchen...oh my goodness her stuffed french toast, fresh fruit medley, homedmade dumplings and more are delightful. Last but not at all least Phil & Petie are two of the most friendly and easy to talk to people you'll ever meet. My husband and I can't wait to visit Country Villa again, it's simply amazing!
