If you are looking at luxury yacht rental in Abu Dhabi, the opening question is usually simple: how much will it cost? The honest answer depends on three things – the yacht, the number of hours and the size of your group. This guide walks through our full price range, explains what you get at each budget and shows how to work out the real cost per person.
How Yacht Rental Prices Work
Every yacht in our fleet is priced per hour for the whole yacht, not per person. You book the yacht, the captain and the crew for your group alone. Each yacht also has a minimum booking time: 2 hours for most of the fleet, and 4 hours for the Azure Star.
That means the total cost of a trip is simply the hourly rate multiplied by the hours you book. A 2-hour trip on a yacht at AED 1,500 per hour is AED 3,000 – whether you bring 10 guests or 20.
What every charter includes
Whatever your budget, the core of the charter stays the same:
- A private yacht for your group – no shared trips
- A captain and crew
- Soft drinks and water
- Speakers and a sound system for your music
Extras such as decoration, a birthday cake or food can be arranged on request through WhatsApp. They are quoted separately, so you can add as much or as little as you like.

Budget Tier 1: Under AED 1,500 per Hour
Five boats sit below AED 1,500 per hour, and they cover a wide range of group sizes. This tier is ideal for families, groups of friends and parties where space matters more than a premium brand name.
- Onyx Lady – AED 450 per hour for up to 8 guests. A 2-hour trip is AED 900, a good fit for couples, families and small groups.
- Azure Star – AED 1,150 per hour for up to 18 guests. The 4-hour minimum (AED 4,600) makes it a good fit for a longer, relaxed day on the water.
- Island Breeze 90 – AED 1,299 per hour for up to 20 guests on a 90 ft house boat. A 2-hour trip is AED 2,598 – good value for a group of up to 20.
- Crown Jewel – AED 1,398 per hour for up to 25 guests, with indoor and outdoor seating and day or evening cruises.
- Grand Majesty – AED 1,499 per hour for up to 35 guests, the largest group size in our fleet.
Budget Tier 2: AED 1,500 to AED 2,000 per Hour
The middle of our range adds more character and features while staying friendly for larger groups.
- Desert Rose – AED 1,500 per hour for up to 20 guests. A full luxury yacht experience for mid-sized parties.
- Ocean Cat 75 – AED 1,579 per hour for up to 25 guests on a 75 ft catamaran, with a rooftop deck, an air-conditioned lounge and water toys (a water slide, a trampoline and a floating sea pool) on request.
- Golden Horizon – AED 1,999 per hour for up to 30 guests, with a spacious outdoor deck and an indoor lounge. A favourite for engagements and anniversaries.
Budget Tier 3: Premium Yachts and Superyachts
At the top of the range are three premium yachts for smaller groups. You pay more per hour, but you get a more exclusive setting for VIP guests, proposals and client hosting.
- Silver Arrow 62 – AED 3,999 per hour for up to 14 guests. An sport yacht with a bright saloon, a quieter lower lounge and an aft deck lounge.
- Black Sapphire – AED 4,500 per hour for up to 12 guests. A premium, personal setting for close friends or a small business group.
- Royal Pearl 68 – AED 5,599 per hour for up to 16 guests. Our flagship, chosen for milestone celebrations and VIP guests.
A 2-hour superyacht charter ranges from AED 7,998 on the Silver Arrow 62 to AED 11,198 on the Royal Pearl 68. Read more on our superyacht rental page.
Working Out the Cost per Person
Because the price is for the whole yacht, a larger group brings the cost per person down quickly. Here are a few examples based on a 2-hour trip with a full group:
| Yacht | Guests | 2-hour price | Approx. per person |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grand Majesty | 35 | AED 2,998 | AED 86 |
| Ocean Cat 75 | 25 | AED 3,158 | AED 126 |
| Desert Rose | 20 | AED 3,000 | AED 150 |
| Silver Arrow 62 | 14 | AED 7,998 | AED 571 |
| Royal Pearl 68 | 16 | AED 11,198 | AED 700 |
Of course, you do not need a full yacht to book. A couple or a small family can charter any of our yachts – the price stays the same.
How to Get More from Your Budget
- Match the yacht to your real guest count. A yacht that is far bigger than you need costs more per hour without adding much to the trip.
- Think about the hours. Two hours is enough for a sunset cruise or a short celebration. For a relaxed day with food and music, a longer booking on a lower hourly rate can be better value.
- Plan sunset timing. A late-afternoon start lets you enjoy daylight, golden hour and the city lights in one trip.
- Ask about extras early. Decoration, a cake and food are easier to arrange when you share your plans at the time of booking.
- Use instalments if it helps. You can pay by card, or split the payment into 4 with Tabby, or use Tamara.

- Send us your date, start time and number of guests on WhatsApp.
- We confirm the booking on WhatsApp and send a payment link – card, Tabby or Tamara.
- We share the meeting point on WhatsApp. Every guest brings an original passport or Emirates ID.
