If you ever dreamt of living that luxury yacht life without actually buying a yacht, BENO just made it a whole lot easier and a whole lot swankier. The lifestyle brand has officially opened its shiny new BENO Lounge at Dubai’s dazzling Marsa Al Arab Marina, and it’s the stuff maritime dreams are made of. Forget walking; you’ll be floating into your next adventure.

BENO didn’t just throw up a desk and call it a day. Oh no, darling. They’ve created a full-on experience right beside the plush Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab hotel. Step into the BENO Lounge and boom—you’re instantly transported into a world where picking a private yacht is as easy (and frankly, more exciting) than choosing your coffee order.
From this marina-side lounge, visitors can explore BENO’s luxurious fleet, book private charters, and plan voyages that would make even seasoned sailors weep with envy. Whether you’re looking for a day trip or a multi-night jaunt across the Gulf, BENO has your nautical needs fully covered.
Meet The Fleet: Not Your Average Boats

The jewel in BENO’s crown? The 115 ft Santorini Superyacht. She’s a floating palace that hosts up to 80 guests for the ultimate party or 12 lucky souls for an overnight stay across five plush cabins. Picture this: Main Salon, full bar, Jacuzzi (yes, bubbles on the sea), dining area, and sunbeds that scream “Instagram me!” Staffed by a seven-person crew, the Santorini doesn’t just promise luxury—it delivers it on a silver platter.
Not in the mood for super size? BENO’s fleet also includes the sleek 74 ft Jude Yacht, the stylish 64 ft Julia Yacht, and the cosy yet chic 42 ft Arya Yacht. Every yacht comes with cabins, decks, and all the bougie touches you’d expect from a brand that takes lounging very seriously.
BENO’s Big Vision: Luxury Made Effortless

Founder and Chairman Aiham Bader put it best (and humbly): BENO aims to craft experiences that feel effortless yet unforgettable. With the launch of this lounge at one of the most prestigious marinas in the world, they’ve clearly understood the assignment. It’s not just about sailing; it’s about creating memories that stick, preferably ones involving sunsets, champagne, and zero worries.
And they’re just getting warmed up. BENO will make waves at Arabian Travel Market 2025, where they’ll be schmoozing with the industry’s top players and, no doubt, plotting their next big move.
The Final Wave
BENO’s splashy arrival at Marsa Al Arab Marina isn’t just another luxury launch; it’s an invitation to live your best, salt-sprayed life. With a yacht for every mood and a lounge that oozes style, they’ve made luxury sailing more accessible and a lot more fabulous. If you’re ready to swap traffic jams for ocean breezes, you know exactly where to find them.
Pack your sunnies, it’s yacht o’clock somewhere!
