Experience the luxury of a self-drive houseboat holiday with White Houseboats. Located in Mannum, South Australia, just 90 minutes from Adelaide, our luxury fleet offers an exceptional way to experience one of the most beautiful stretches of the Murray River. Begin your journey with a scenic drive through the Adelaide Hills and enjoy the sunshine in this idyllic, rain-shadowed location before arriving at Mannum Waters Marina, where our friendly team will welcome you aboard and introduce you to your floating home before your Murray River adventure begins.

Whether you’re planning a romantic escape, a family holiday, a milestone celebration or a long-overdue getaway with friends, our fleet offers a houseboat to suit every style of river holiday.

Step aboard Whitewater, affectionately known as The Silver Boat, where four private ensuite bedrooms, a designer kitchen, Starlink connectivity and an exceptional upstairs entertaining area with an extra-large heated spa create a refined escape for discerning couples, families and long-standing friends travelling together.

For larger families and groups, Flat White comfortably accommodates up to 12 guests across six private bedrooms, combining generous living spaces, flexible bedding, a designer kitchen, an extra-large spa and an expansive entertaining deck designed for bringing everyone together.

Also sleeping up to 12 guests, Oasis blends generous space with modern comfort, featuring Starlink connectivity, a contemporary kitchen with filtered drinking water and wine fridge, spacious indoor and outdoor living, and a heated spa that invites you to slow down and enjoy life on the river.

If you’re looking for a warm and welcoming home away from home, Absolute Bliss  offers beautifully styled interiors, five queen bedrooms, separate front and rear living areas, a heated spa on the spacious upstairs entertaining deck and generous outdoor spaces where families and friends can relax, reconnect and enjoy quality time together.

For guests who love entertaining and making the most of the river, Riverdance comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests and combines flexible bedding, Starlink connectivity, a rear entertaining bar, spacious living areas and a heated spa with easy access for waterskiing, wakeboarding and days spent on the water.

Best of all, our entire fleet is pet friendly, so everyone can come along.

When planning a houseboat holiday, sometimes the one thing stopping us can be the thought of leaving our dogs behind. With White Houseboats, you don’t have to. If dogs aren’t your thing, that’s okay too. We take great pride in the presentation of every houseboat and never compromise on comfort or cleanliness to be pet friendly – you wouldn’t even know.
