The Inn loans bikes, beach umbrellas, chairs; it was easy to walk a mile’; a 5-star ‘Ideal Rehoboth getaway’ wrote ‘We had a wonderful weekend at Canalside. It’s a terrific location—a quiet neighbourhood right across from the canal. We spent time relaxing and reading on the front porch and on the benches along the canal.

What Guests Are Saying

“We had a great experience at Canalside, our room was clean and the bed was surprisingly really comfortable! Short walk to the ave, restaurants, breakfast, coffee, only 10 min from Gordon’s Pond (our go to beach)! It was quiet, very dog friendly! They even provided dog bowls, a nice blanket, doggie towel and dog wash! I don’t think I saw anyone without a pup! It’s located just far away enough from all the hustle to enjoy a nice walk and have quiet when wanted but close enough for a quick uber or walk to all the fun. I’d definitely book at Canalside again” — Holly B., 5 stars

“We had a wonderful weekend at Canalside. It’s a terrific location—a quiet neighbourhood right across from the canal. We spent time relaxing and reading on the front porch and on the benches along the canal. The Main Street is just a short walk away, and the beach and restaurants are accessible on foot. Our hosts were welcoming and couldn’t have been more helpful. We’re planning to return soon!” — Howard A., 5 stars

"We had a wonderful experience at the Canalside Inn. We booked for SeaWitch weekend. We brought our dog with us as they are more than pet-friendly. It’s quiet and very easy to walk your dog across the street. The hotel General Manager Jennifer and the owner Bryan made us feel right at home. Coffee was made every morning. Everything was handled online and was very easy to do. You are treated like family there. Hot tub and fire pits are a plus. The owners put out beer Saturday night for the guests. Simply the best if you need dog friendly accommodations. We would highly recommend the Canalside Inn."

"We had such a wonderful stay at the Canalside Inn! From the moment we arrived, we were charmed by its welcoming atmosphere and thoughtful touches. The location is fantastic, close to everything yet peaceful and relaxing. One of the highlights for us was how pet-friendly the Inn is. Our dogs felt right at home, and the surrounding area was perfect for long, scenic walks. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and we loved the little extras like free bike and beach chair rentals, which made exploring the area even more enjoyable. The large community room with a full kitchen available to guests was a fantastic bonus and really added to the home-away-from-home feel. Bryan and Kristen were gracious and responsive hosts, always quick to answer any questions and make sure we had everything we needed. We honestly can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend this charming inn to anyone looking for a relaxing, pet-friendly getaway!"
