Working from home wasn't working for me and discovering this hidden gem of a coworking community in Poulsbo of all places has truly been a gamechanger for me. Here's why: 1. Interviewing - conferences rooms you can rent (quite affordably) to use for a more professional setting than a home office. When looking for my next role after a corporate layoff in 2024, the "vibe" of doing my interviews in a more office like setting was a huge benefit for me. 2. Great Vibes - it sounds so cliche, but the founder (Alanna) truly takes pride in cultivating a great space and community that I look forward to spending time and getting work done (now that I've landed a full-time remote role). 3. Any time access - Staffed hours are 8am to 5pm M-F but as a member you're able to get an app with virtual keys for 24/7 access. 4. Outdoor space - Centennial Park is right behind the building and has a walking loop over a small creek along with a few benches when I need to get some fresh air in between Zoom calls. 5. Reciprocity - As an independent coworking spot, you get access to a network called the League of Extraordinary Coworking Spaces (lexc.co) which entitles you to free, full-day coworking passes at any of the LEXC locations, up to 5 times per space, per year. So far I've used this benefit for meetings across the Sound in Seattle, as well as San Francisco and Washington, DC. Bonus points: you get a Vibe discount from the coffee shop downstairs (Chocmo) which has some great food and chocolate to go with the caffeinated beverages :) TL;DR - I would highly encourage anyone to swing by and see the space at Vibe. It turned out to be exactly what I needed when I needed it most while interviewing last year, and has continued to be an even more important space for meeting my need for connection and community to avoid the isolation that can come with remote work. read more

I was in town from the Atlanta area visiting my wife's family, and I thankfully have a job that allows remote work. During our two-week stay in Poulsbo, I had worked a handful of days from my in-laws' house, with some marginal success doing so. However, towards the end of our trip, my wife came across Vibe while on a walk, and I knew I needed to take advantage of a coworking space for my next work day. My last planned work day while I was in town happened to be on the first Friday of August, which is "Free 1st Friday" at Vibe. Though I've experienced a handful of coworking facilities across the country, I was honestly very impressed with this facility, and incredibly pleased with my experience. The space co-exists quite harmoniously with the other retailers and restaurants in the building; evidenced by the fact that Vibe closes an hour early on Friday to head next door to Crabtree for free hors d'oeuvre, networking, and a cash bar; available only to Vibe coworkers! Many coworking facilities are dominated by private offices, leaving the common space without much energy. Vibe's shared space was buzzing with activity, yet there were tons of enclaves and more secluded areas that I could use whenever I needed to break away for whatever reason. I was even able to score a second monitor to use with my laptop, which always helps during a day with a heavy workload. The snacks were many, the amenities were plentiful, and the whole place swarmed with a quiet but energizing productivity. During my 8 hours at the facility, there wasn't a single area available to me that I didn't utilize or explore, including the outdoor space, complete with a beautiful view from the second story deck of the building. I love my coworking space back in my hometown; but Vibe is genuinely impressive, and I will most certainly be back again the next time I'm in town. Alanna, the owner, was remarkably kind; making me feel comfortable, cared for, and right at-home from the moment I came in the door. I could not more highly recommend this place! read more

I've now been a Vibist for over a year, and can't imagine working anywhere else! It is the perfect place to work independently and/or collaboratively with spaces designated for both conversation and quiet as well as meeting rooms and phone booths. There are opportunities for watercooler chats in the kitchen, networking, and a range of social activities that create a sense of connection. Staff are warm, supportive, and full of creative ideas. As an independent contractor of 15 years, I'm so grateful to have found a place where I feel this sense of connection and community. read more

Our business started using the Vibe Coworks Lab as our primary office space in February, 2018, and then we moved into their brand new building in September, 2018. I've never seen a coworking space more thoughtfully planned in terms of design and function. It is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Vibe Coworks owners, Alanna and Marcel, are active, helpful and very invested in making this not only a coworking space but also coworking community. The new location is huge and has everything from small, quiet workstations to large conference rooms - and everything in between. We love the ability to book conference rooms online when we need extra space, and we do so often. We are thrilled to be working from here and to be part of this exciting and vibrant coworking community! read more

Totally sold on the concept of co-working, but when it's partnered with amazing, talented and smart people, plus a fun space -- I'm all in! Love Vibe and so grateful for all that they are bringing to our community in Kitsap! read more
