Chanda and Tyler are the hosts and proprietors of the Chico Bay Inn, a small boutique waterfront inn located on the Kitsap Peninsula. They both were born and raised in the Pacific Northwest - Chanda actually grew up nearby.
In their former lives, Chanda and Tyler’s careers took them all over the world: Chanda in the fields of International Education and Intercultural Learning to live in Austria, Germany, Japan, Mexico and South Korea, and Tyler as a designer, media producer, and musician in a worldwide touring band. Their love of the Pacific Northwest drew them back to Washington state where they met and bonded over similar interests in traveling, kayaking, hiking, watching live music, cooking, creating craft cocktails, and designing indoor and outdoor spaces.
They dreamed of creating a life where they lived on the water doing what they love most. In 2017, they made their dream a reality when they purchased a property with three separate spaces in one building. They added their luxurious style of modern design, and this property soon became the Chico Bay Inn. With good fortune and success, they were able to expand in 2023 by purchasing the property just south of them.
