Canalside Inn

I loved my room! And the location is tucked away in a quiet and peaceful area, but still so close to local beaches, shopping and restaurants. They have cute chairs/tables outside each room where I enjoyed a cup of coffee and listened to birds singing each morning. They thought of nice additions, such as a wine opener in the room and a cute little basket with goodies for purchase. I also really appreciated the keyless entry - so nice not to have to make sure you have your key when leaving your room. I liked the way they kept in touch via text throughout my stay and were really responsive to messages.

we have been coming here for over 15yrs. We live the fact that it allows dogs and the location is just perfect. 15-20min walk from the beach and right next to the main road in Rehoboth.

Our room was super dusty. The common area in the basement was dirty and didnt feel comfy at all. there were dead bugs on the ground and dust all over the counters etc. The coffee and tea served in the morning was okay but what ever happened to the snacks and breakfast? The coffee and tea station was super dirty. The price seems to keep going up so I would now say its over priced.

The location was wonderful close to the beach. Bikes were available to use during our stay. Our room was very clean and the beds were comfortable.

They didn't have a breakfast, which would have been nice. Area near the pool needed a good cleaning. The bathroom didn't have much space to put toiletry bag or room to move .

Coffee from Swell Joe’s every morning, Greek yogurt, fresh fruit, granola, orange juice available all day. The owners are the nicest people and go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect! Their dog, Sky, is the sweetest most well behaved husky ever. The location of the property is quiet and perfect for dog walking. Very comfortable and relaxing!!

The street in front of the property has a 15 MPH speed limit - but this is not observed by many. I hope the city will install speed bumps, and signage would be a good start.

Breakfast amenities were appreciated as well as the welcoming atmosphere for pets. To have my pat so welcome was really so comforting. Thank you for this feature.

Honestly the bathroom was so small due to a shower that really didn’t have to be that big. Also my daughter was staying in another room which had a cabinet with drawers and mirror which made much more convenient.

We have been staying at the Canalside Inn for 15 yrs. we simply love this place. The location is perfect, you are just 15 min walk from the beach and just two minutes away from the main avenue where you can find restaurants shops entertainment.

I feel bad writing this, but I guess its inevitable, the place needed some repairs, the towels had tons of holes in them and just looked old, and our room sort of smelled like a wet dog. We have a shiba inu and we try hard to make sure if we bring him and once we’re getting ready to leave we clean up and air the place (ofcourse he doesn’t really smell at all but I know some dogs do). There was this heavy smell. Maybe it was the dog bed that was there. I know this place has been around for a while so its normal for things to get old, but its important to keep up with cleanliness and little things here and there. I feel like you pay a good deal for the room so it should be updated. Otherwise we still love this place. Its still number one on our list when we decided to come next time.

rooms are very nice.

They take a VERY high security hold on your card and then text you to say make sure everything is ok with the room and if not report it so you don’t get charged damages. I’ve done this with house rentals but never a hotel. I was taking pictures is a chip in a sink, missing shoe molding, etc. just so I wouldn’t get blamed.

First time overnight with our dog and this place is great! Didn’t know though that as of May 1 no dogs are allowed on the beach and boardwalk so the owner of Canal Side suggested Dewey Beach. The particular spot we went to still didn’t allow dogs so we trekked to North Bethany and found a sweet spot(3 R’s Rd specifically) then found a yummy place for lunch-Matt Fish Camp. All in all we had a great time and the staff at Canal Side are great!! Definitely a perfect place to stay if you’re bringing your pooch 😊

Where do you begin… the property was beautiful , situated perfectly within walking distance of the boardwalk and the staff was very friendly and accommodating .

The Outback pool/hot tub as well as the area they are located in needs a TLC and updating.

We didn't do breakfast

We didn't have a place to sit and eat our carry food.
