Perfect location

Great spot. Walking distance to all of the downtown amenities and beach, but set back just enough so it seems a bit secluded.

Quaint little inn

We were very happy at the canalside Inn. The room and the entire place was clean and well maintained. Bryan and Kristen and all of the staff were attentive and easily available. Though the pool is small it was a nice break in the day to relax and not be overrun with a lot of people. I would definitely stay there again.

Great location and pet friendly

We chose this option since it was pet friendly and close to the beach. The room was nice if a little smaller than it looked in the picture. Our only small complaint was that certain items for our pet were not in our room when we checked in. The listing said we should expect a dog towel, treats, and a dark duvet cover, but these items were not left in our room upon arrival and due to covid restrictions we did not want to inquire about them. Overall a positive experience.

Great stay at cozy inn!

My wife & our dog had a great time at this cute inn near the beach. Great location w/both a fantastic breakfast spot - Egg - and an awesome coffee shop - Rise Up - right around the corner. Nestled right on the canal, which provides a perfect dog-walking path. We’ll definitely stay here again the next time we’re in Rehoboth Beach!

Great place for a short respite with your furry friend

Bryan and Kristen made us feel at home. They were very helpful and accommodating. When I told Bryan, the owner that I was not able to take my dog with me in this trip, he was quick to say that he hopes my dog is okay and didn’t hesitate refunding me for the pet fee. The Canal Inn is located in a quaint corner and is a walking distance to the beach and fine restaurants. Definitely a good place to just recharge from the pandemic fatigue.

Enjoyable stay at Canalside Inn

I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Canalside Inn. Our room was squeaky clean and provided a bowl for my dog's drinking water. I appreciated how they made us and our dog feel welcome. We look forward to staying at the Inn again next fall.

"We absolutely loved our stay at Canalside Inn. Me and my boyfriend are first time dog parents and we really wanted to bring our puppy to the beach. Canalside allows pets, but even better they even offer dog walking during the day if you head out and need someone to check on the pup. A lot of other guests had their pups with them too so it was so nice to meet the other dogs and have waffles be able to socialize with the other pups. We loved the environment too, everyone was so laid back, helpful, and everything was so easy, they have a system where you text them with whatever you need, whether check-in, fresh towels, dog walking, etc, simply text and someone is there to help. Also great in COVID since we didn’t want people in and out of our room we turned down house keeping and just texted whenever we needed things. All of this really made our whole experience relaxing. The additional amenities like the dog walking or in room massages is such a bonus love that. We felt so comfortable, loved the other guests, it was just a great experience. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in Rehoboth."
