Mildura Houseboats has been part of the local river scene for more than 25 years.
We started small and have grown into a fleet of 16 houseboats, with many owned by local investor groups and managed by our team here in Mildura.
We’re not a national chain and we’re not run from somewhere else.
We’re here.
Our staff are local, our boats are local, and we use local trades, suppliers and businesses wherever we can.
A big part of what we do stays in the region.
We’ve spent a long time around this stretch of the Murray.
That means knowing the boats, knowing the river and knowing the people and businesses that make the area what it is.
We support local clubs, community groups and events, and we try to keep as much of our spending as possible with other local businesses.
For us, being local should mean more than just having Mildura in the name.
We measure a good year pretty simply: good boats, a strong local team, guests who come back, local businesses getting some of the benefit, and a river community that keeps moving forward.
That matters more to us than filling a wall with certificates.
We have been involved in the tourism industry for over 25 years and during that time have worked within numerous resorts across Australia. After falling in love with the Murray River, the welcoming Mildura locals, and the great all-seasons weather, we decided to settle here — and on the 1st of August 2000, launched a fleet of just two deluxe houseboats.
Today, Mildura Houseboats proudly offers 16 award-winning spa houseboats, making us one of the largest providers of luxury houseboat accommodation in the region.
With a selection of different floor plans, we have a houseboat to suit everyone — from pet-friendly options and budget-friendly boats, to ultimate luxury spa vessels packed with premium features. Choose a prepared itinerary or cruise the Murray at your own pace. There’s plenty to explore along the way — or just relax and enjoy the ride. Want more? Hire a canoe, some fishing gear, or a paddle boat for the kids — we’ve got you covered.
Our houseboats are easy to drive, with full instructions provided. The facilities are exceptional and spotlessly clean, and our friendly team is always on call to help with anything during your stay.
We’re proud to display the Tourism Accreditation tick, and to have won the 2016 Regional Tourism Award in the Unique Accommodation category. You can count on us to make your houseboat holiday easy, relaxing, and unforgettable.
