Commander’s Beach House

What a wonderful retreat. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was fabulous. Waking to a beautiful sunrise and delicious breakfast was a bonus. We will be back.

We booked at the last minute, so not sure what we would be getting. This was my gfs first bed and breakfast. (shes 41 and sheltered. story there Lol). We had a great time here. Jim and Gail could not have been more hospitable. The location is fantastic! Listened to the: Sound Waves: and the buoy at night, the beds had flannel sheets and a faux fireplace just added to the comfort. A great breakfast and caring hosts made the journey even better. Two positive thumbs up!

This was our first B&B experience ever, but it was one of the most unique and comfortable experiences away from home ever. We will definitely come back again now we’ve broken that B&B barrier down!
I think my boyfriend and I normally like to keep it anonymous, but we decided to go to The Strange Brew Fest in Port Townsend the day before the festival started and were finding that EVERYTHING in this tiny Victorian town was booked! Until we tried one more time by booking at The Commander’s Beach House. Even last minute, we felt the prices were reasonable, especially compared to some of the other Victorian-​esque B&B’s in the area. We were right on the water and had a homecooked breakfast in the morning. Honestly, I didn’t know what to expect, but the room was homey and the food was fantastic.
Thanks Gail & Jim!

I am not normally a B&B type. I prefer the anonymity of a hotel and often feel uncomfortable staying in someone’s «front room». But in this instance, my fears and concerns were assuaged.
The Commander’s Beach House is a quiet retreat situated past the harbour in Port Townsend. Our room was on the ground floor and only about 30 feet from the coastline. The owners Gail and Jim were welcoming but knew when to leave us alone and simply let us enjoy the place. I asked for a vegan breakfast on their online booking form and to be honest, was not really expecting anything apart from coffee, but Gail cooked my wife and I a great breakfast, vegan for me, with ham and an egg for her!
Quiet, no seagulls zooming about, coating my car with their «output» (see The Palace review!), friendly yet sensitive hosts, comfortable, cosy and somewhere I’d visit again. And I fully intend to, dammit!
