The Shore Inn

The Shore Inn is one of the gay-friendly guesthouses that line the approaches to Rehoboth Beach's centre, providing the small-inn experience that many gay travellers prefer to the anonymity of a larger hotel. The property is adult-oriented and predominantly attracts LGBTQ+ guests, though it welcomes all adults in the manner of the best gay-friendly accommodation. The heated pool is the centrepiece of the outdoor social space, and the atmosphere is the communal guesthouse model: guests interact around the pool and at breakfast in a way that does not occur in larger hotels. The Rehoboth Avenue location is slightly removed from the immediate Baltimore Avenue strip, giving the property a quieter character while remaining walkable to both the gay bars and the boardwalk. The Shore Inn represents the Rehoboth Beach guesthouse tradition — small, personal, community-oriented — at a good level of quality.
