Your Quote
What Shapes the Final Price
1
Yacht size — larger yacht, higher hourly rate
2
Duration — longer bookings are quoted as a package, not just hours multiplied
3
Group size — affects which yacht fits and what setup is needed. Planning for a large group?
4
Add-ons — catering, decorations, and extras are priced on top of the base

Weekday and weekend pricing is generally the same. Availability varies, but rates don’t shift day to day.

Compare the exact yacht

Commercial yacht names and advertised size labels can vary. A larger number or the word “upgrade” alone does not prove that the yacht is larger or different. Compare the exact yacht’s current photos, specifications, layout, guest capacity, inclusions and written total.

FAQ
Pricing, Answered
How much does it cost to rent a yacht in Dubai?
Private yacht options start from AED 800 per hour, and prices scale up through the larger and premium yachts. Full starting prices by size are listed at the top of this page. Your final quote depends on the yacht, the date, and what you would like arranged on board.
Are prices charged per hour or per package?
Standard rentals are priced per hour with a 3-hour minimum. Special-event evenings such as NYE, F1 weekend, and sunset cruises are priced as full packages because they don’t follow the standard format. We always tell you which basis we’re quoting before you confirm.
Is VAT included in the listed price?
Prices shown are starting prices. Before payment, your written quote will confirm the final total, what is included, any applicable VAT, and any payment-method fee.
Are there any hidden fees or surcharges?
No. Before payment, your written quote confirms the final total, yacht time, requested add-ons, what is included, any applicable VAT, and any payment-method fee. The final total changes only if you later request something additional.
What is the minimum booking duration?
The minimum is 3 hours. Anything shorter doesn’t give you enough time on the water to be worth the cost. Most clients find 3 to 4 hours covers a comfortable coastal route, with 6 to 8 hours preferred for longer days that include lunch, swim stops, or sunset timing.
Does the price include fuel, crew, and equipment?
Most quoted private yacht bookings include a licensed captain, crew, fuel for the standard charter route, water, soft drinks, ice, towels, swimming platform access, and onboard sound system. Final inclusions are confirmed in writing for your selected yacht before payment. Fishing rods, water sports, catering, and other extras are quoted separately on request.
Are catering, decoration, and other extras priced separately?
Yes. Catering, decoration, photography, DJs, and special arrangements are quoted as add-ons so you only pay for what you want. We share a clear per-item price before you commit, and everything appears on a single itemised invoice.
Does pricing change in high season, on weekends, or for public holidays?
November to March is high season in Dubai, and weekends within that window are the busiest. Some yachts carry seasonal pricing on those dates. NYE, F1, Eid, and Diwali weekends are priced as event packages rather than standard hourly rates. The earlier you book, the more options you keep open.
Do you offer discounts for longer or repeat bookings?
Yes. Full-day bookings of around 8 hours, multi-day bookings, and repeat bookings are priced more favourably than the standard hourly rate. The exact saving depends on the yacht and the date. Message us with what you’re planning and we’ll show you the difference in the quote itself.
How much is the deposit, and what payment methods do you accept?
A 30% deposit confirms the date, with the remaining balance due before departure. Cash on the day can be arranged and confirmed in advance, and we also accept card payment links and bank transfer. Any applicable VAT and any payment-method fee are shown clearly in your written quote before payment.
