Unaccompanied Military Personnel -- Bachelor quarters are constantly being renovated to meet the Navy's high standards. On Naval Base Guam there are 17 buildings, 3 buildings on Naval Magazine (used mostly for the submarine commands), and 3 buildings on Naval Computer and Telecommunications Station. Combined these buildings can house a total of 1,196 military members. Depending on the command to which you are being assigned, enlisted personnel E-5 and higher may be required to live off base if bachelor quarters are not available. Officers who are single or on orders written as a geo-bachelor with authorized dual Basic Housing Allowance are expected to live off base.  

The Navy Gateway Inns and Suites, located on Nimitz Hill, houses both single service members and married service members with their families. Space is limited with 16 rooms for transient personnel and is reserved on a "first come, first served" basis. Active duty or retirees are authorized to utilize this facility.

Temporary Lodging Allowance (TLA)

Upon arrival on Guam, ensure that you check-in with your command or stop by your commands' quarterdeck after hours and have your orders stamped. Bring a copy of your orders, page 2 and your previous command's detaching endorsement. In order to process TLA (for families), a non-availability letter from Housing must be issued so that PSD/CPPA may process any TLA claims. TLA is not an entitlement, but a reimbursement for authorized families' hotel and meal expenses.
