About Our Mildura Houseboat Stay on the Murray River

A Little About Us
At Restaway Houseboats, we’re all about slow days, calm water, and the kind of moments you don’t want to rush.
Restaway was originally built by Wally Baldwin in the late 1980s and has been taken back over by the Baldwin Family in 2025.
Years later, we’ve completely rebuilt Restaway from the ground up. While everything is now modern, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, we’ve made sure to keep the character and relaxed feel that made it so special in the first place.
Today, Restaway is a fully self-contained, moored houseboat accommodation in Mildura, offering a unique and easy way to experience the Murray River, no boating, no stress, just arrive and unwind.
As a local, family-run business, we genuinely love sharing this lifestyle with our guests. Whether it’s a quiet weekend away, a romantic escape, or time with family and friends, we want your stay to feel effortless, memorable, and just a little bit different.

What people say about Restaway Houseboat

Restaway houseboat is simply perfect it is honestly better than a lot of hotels i have stayed in for the same price or more. lovely location and away from the hustle and bustle but close to the city center. Nice and quite and it has all the mod cons that you will ever require. Madi (the host) is amazing, really quick on replying to questions and email. we are planning on going back in the early new year as it was so good

We stayed 2 nights on the Restaway and honestly, we should have stayed longer. The boat is immaculately presented with quality fittings and furnishings. The kitchen and bathroom are stocked with everything you need to make your stay a homely one. Madi, the hostess, was amazing and made us feel right at home with her kind greeting. The family dogs visited too, along with a family of swans. We highly recommend the Restaway. We will be back. Thank you!

I surprised my husband with a stay on the Restaway Houseboat for his 40th birthday, and it truly exceeded all expectations! From the moment we stepped aboard, it felt like a peaceful escape from the world. The houseboat was well-equipped, clean, and offered all the little comforts that made the experience extra special. Madi went above and beyond from our first contact. Our family loved it - we spent quality time fishing off the back deck, soaking in the breathtaking sunrises, and relaxing by the fire in the evening! We didn’t want to leave!
