How about something like this?

# comment
options=--option1
# comment
options+=\ --option2
# comment
options+=\ --option3
# here goes the command
command $options

Though this may get a bit tricky if your options include shell
metacharacters or significant whitespaces, then you'll have to
escape them correctly.
