Floating Hotel to Open at Marina

Abu Dhabi welcomes its first floating hotel, the Orchid Overnight Superyacht, permanently stationed at Yas Marina. This unique accommodation, managed by Dutch Oriental Megayachts, offers a novel lodging experience on the water, featuring 31 rooms. Guests can choose from 24 standard rooms, four VIP rooms, and three suites, some with private hot tubs, with rates starting at Dh990 per night. The superyacht is also available for private events and full buyouts, adding a versatile option for visitors.

The Orchid Overnight Superyacht enhances Yas Marina's existing offerings, which include various restaurants, leisure facilities, and entertainment venues. The location was strategically chosen for its easy access to both Abu Dhabi and Dubai, as well as its proximity to Zayed International Airport. Guests can enjoy standard hotel amenities such as dining options, concierge services, and a sun deck.

Starting October 2025, the hotel will launch sundowner and dinner cruises along the Abu Dhabi coastline, further enhancing the guest experience. This floating hotel represents a significant addition to the UAE's hospitality sector, providing a distinctive accommodation choice for travelers visiting the capital.
