Oceanfront condos with year-round swim

The Canterbury Inn keeps beach days easy with oceanfront condo-style units, plus a heated indoor pool and hot tub for any season.

There’s no on-site restaurant, so meals happen on your schedule at the dining table.

  • Dog-friendly coastal stay

    Pets get bowls, blankets, furniture sheets, clean-up bags, and treats.
  • Easy self-catering

    Kitchenettes or full kitchens let everyone eat well without leaving the room.

Amenities

  • Cozy suites with fireplaces for cool nights
  • One-person hydrotherapy tub in select suite
  • Beach clam tradition with on-site cleaning stations

I had a one bedroom unit on the 3rd floor. It was very clean, the view from the balcony was nice, mostly of the dunes. Could see some of the ocean, and sunsets were incredible. Staff was very nice. Didn’t use the pool, but it did look nice. I hope to stay here again!

Staff was always ready to help and friendly as they alerted us to the best places to see, eat and shop. Room was so çute and cozy, the maids do great work with cleaning and prepping. During my stay we were blessed to watch deer graze in the yard as we enjoyed the balcony view. We had a lovely time in our suite.

This was our 2nd year staying at The Canterbury Inn with our little dog. The staff are fantastic and it feels like everything has been thought of to make the stay enjoyable for humans and dogs. The rooms are well appointed and have all you might need. There are board games in the common room for rainy days and DVDs to rent on the lobby. You are close to everything here (highly recommend Dugan's pizza and Kookabura donuts!) We will be back next year!

Just stayed for 1 night, but was a very nice, clean 1 bedroom unit on the first floor. Even without a view of the ocean you can still hear the surf while sitting outside on the patio. We had 2 queen beds and both were too hard for my liking but that wouldn’t stop me from staying again. Love the location and checking/out was a breeze.

A spontaneous trip to Ocean Shores and we were lucky enough to get a room here. It felt like a small one bedroom apartment and it was perfect for me, my boyfriend and our teen. Staff was kind and room was clean and well maintained. We definitely would come back and stay here. Walking distance to the water also made it a big plus.

We didn’t like the back bedroom lack of privacy as it looked out on main hallway. Our grandsons complained that the sheets were scratchy. We liked being on first floor so we and our dog could sit outside. Our grandsons loved being able to go to the pool 2x day. . A pleasant stay. We have stayed in different accommodations at the Canterbury Inn and will be back next year.
