About Us

Houseboat Holidays has been in operation on the Walpole-Nornalup Inlet System since 1984.

The Pernich family have been running the business since 1996 and are a fountain of information about the local area, the history, the geography and the people.  They and their family before themhave lived and holidayed in the region for generations.  Jeff & Rob love to fish in their spare time and should be able to provide you with all the latest about 'what's biting' in the inlet.

A few years ago Jeff & Pam decided to retire and Rob & Louise have taken on the day to day running of the business, but you will still see Jeff & Pam around most days as they still like to be involved, help out and catch up with old friends.  Unless of course, they've gone off traveling on holidays of their own.

Excerpts from Cruise-Away Diaries:

"..3 great people running a venture who deserve ongoing success.
Good old fashioned hospitality, friendliness & desire to see their guests
enjoy every moment of their memorable time in Walpole-Nornalup."
Wills & Briggs family from Busselton & Clifton Park

"We have had a very memorable holiday here on the inlet.
What a wonderful & beautiful place you have here.
To Pam, Jeff & Rob, thankyou for the fantastic service you
provided for us.  You can be really proud of your venture here.
To be able to spend 5 days without the kids mentioning
'We're bored' has been great."
The Van Meekeren Family

Our Hosts couldn't be more efficient or pleasant - and how about
Super Rob!!  Able to re-build outboards, leap...dinghy's 
in a single bound...Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's...Super Rob!
In case it isn't obvious, we have had (another) great holiday.
