We spent a lovely evening on the Celeste motorboat. We were offered dates and coffee as a welcome gift, then boarded and escorted to our table. The departure was on time and the buffet opened.
The food was varied and excellent quality.
Dinner took place in the Marina canals with a beautiful view of the illuminated skyscrapers, and the light show of the iconic Ferris wheel was impressive.
Two talented artists further enlivened the evening with a traditional Darvish dance show and a belly dancer.
The onboard staff was friendly and attentive to the guests' needs.
It was a pleasant experience.

We booked the Celeste Dinner Cruise and had a lovely experience. The dinner had a good variety of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, and the food was enjoyable. There were several entertaining shows onboard, which kept the atmosphere lively, and many guests joined in dancing, making it a fun and vibrant evening.

The views along the route, especially near areas like JBR, were beautiful and added to the overall experience. It’s a great option for a relaxed evening with food, entertainment, and scenic views.

Amazing cruise..I recommend this to everyone. The two hour Dubai Marina cruise flew by. I wish it was longer. Great entertainment dj, dancing, tanoura and belly dancing and all inclusive food and Drinks. Courteous staff. My next cruise will be with Celeste.

Booking this dinner was a complete Rip off. My family was so excited to enjoy the smooth cruise with good food but it was opposite. Food was cold as ice and the crowd was uncivilized. There were only desi/indian dishes and ppl weren't evening listening to go table by table as per announced by the host 😑 we came first but got chance to get food at the end. That was complete non-sense.
Now the second worst part was the bumpy cruise ride. I understand it was a cruise, but the Captain should know where to take the ship. It was so bumpy that plates were moving, cutlery was falling and water bottles were rolling on the table and at peak bump landed on the floor. My daughter is 8 years old and she felt so sick and scared that she started crying. Because of the motion the dancer stopped his dancing for a while cus everyone who was standing or walking was about to fall on the floor.
Overall it was not a good experience and money wise doesn't worth it. I am from Canada and I was very disappointed to waste more than $250 .

The only good part was the photography and he was charging separately. He bargained very reasonable price for 5 pics. The pics he took were amazing.

Had been to their yacht dinner cruise around 3 weeks back. So far the best experience I have had. The food, service & entertainment was so good. What stood out the most was the service. A staff member named Yash took care of our F&B needs the best. He was really professional, friendly and he saw to that he provides the top notch service. Memorable night ✨

Booked the Dubai Marina Dinner Cruise with Live Show & DJ through Klook and had a wonderful experience with my family. The booking process was smooth and hassle-free. The cruise along Dubai Marina was relaxing and offered beautiful night views of the skyline. Dinner was enjoyable with a good variety of food. The live show and DJ added to the atmosphere without being overwhelming, making it suitable for families. The boat was clean, comfortable, and well organised, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout. Overall, a memorable and enjoyable family experience in Dubai.

Worst experience ever - never book this in your life. (You can if you wanna spend 60$ on non-sense tho).

1.Food & Drinks
So basically at the start of the "boat riding" they give us a free drinks + we ordered a cappuchino for 50 aed. Free drinks were terrible, had absolutely no taste, like melted ice cream without any taste. Cappuchino had bubles in it, think they didnt even washed it well so theres bubbles from the soap. Food is absolutely terrible, no choice, only indian food, rice and chicken. Smell was terrible and i didnt even tried it (dont wanna be in hospital 1 day after). Overall: 1/10 (could do 0/10 if there would not be water)

2.Live shows
Already scared to write that, but yeah..
First show was about how 30-60 year old guy was dancing like a ballerina ( we don't know something? ahh moment ) and he was imagining that he was 18 y.o girl-ballerina ( i guess so).Then he started clapping and dancing, and wanted everyone to clap to ( did bro wanted to make protest exactly at boat or smth? ). Overall, first show: 2/10 (not zero or one just because everyone laughed so i were laughning too).
Second show: i really can't call it as a show. That was literally just an advertisement to watch the beautiful views of Dubai Marina and relax. Overall, second show: 0/10

Overall, my final review is 10. TEN zeros. Disliked it so much, like i dont know dawg

I requested for a window seat due to sudden nausea and was feeling enclosed in the last seat by the deck door. Despite have a full table of 8, no one attended to me and I spent more than half the cruise on the deck. The guy I spoke to told me he will b back in 2 mins and he never showed up. No apologies no communication. The lack of empathy is what was jarring and pretty much ruined my anniversary night. Book the other cruises available, do not recommend. The photo taken here is post the cruise started, basically no other guests were expected post that.

Extremely disappointing and upsetting experience.

I took this cruise expecting a premium experience, but it turned out to be one of the worst I’ve had.

First, a non-vegetarian salad was clearly marked and served as vegetarian. I am a pure vegetarian for religious reasons, and this mistake deeply hurt my religious sentiments. Such negligence in food labeling is unacceptable, especially in hospitality where dietary restrictions must be strictly respected.

Second, we were promised dinner from a 5-star hotel (Hyatt) at the time of booking, but instead food was served from Copthorne Hotel, which felt like clear misrepresentation. On top of that, the quality and taste of the food were really bad, nowhere close to what was advertised or expected from a cruise experience.

Overall, this felt like false advertising combined with poor service standards. I would not recommend this cruise to anyone, especially vegetarians or those expecting what is promised at the time of booking.

Very disappointing experience.

The cruise was a nice experience overall. The views were pleasant, and the ambience was comfortable. The staff was polite, and the service was decent. The food was okay with a good variety of options. It was a relaxing way to spend an evening in Dubai and worth trying at least once.

First of all it’s NOT a 5 star luxury cruise!!!
The food was cold, the unlimited alcohol was of poor quality.
The entertainment was fine
It’s was overall an ok experience, but won’t categorise as a luxury dinner cruise

Krishna CHaitanya

18:01 23 Nov 25

enjoyed a beautiful cruise experience in Dubai, and the night views were absolutely stunning. Sailing through the illuminated skyline felt magical and made the entire journey memorable.

The entertainment on board was lively — the dance performances were engaging and added a fun vibe to the evening.

However, the non-vegetarian food options were quite limited. A wider variety would definitely enhance the overall dining experience for guests.

Overall, it was a lovely night cruise with breathtaking views and enjoyable shows. With a bit more attention to the food menu, it could be even better.

16:46 19 Nov 25

I strongly advise against going there. Upon arrival, they told us the parking lot was on the other side of the highway, and of course, the parking lot on the other side was paid. Returning to the entrance on the dock side, there were plenty of free spaces in their parking lot. We had to pay for the electric car, even though it's normally free. The reception needs improvement. The buffet is very cheap, with zero value for money. There's no point in going to the upper level; it's covered.

To have the taxi drop you off at the nearest location, enter "Céleste Cruise" directly in the GPS app. Otherwise, entering the address won't work.
Aside from this mishap, the short cruise was very enjoyable. The food was generous and tasty. The selection was a bit limited, but we were on a boat. The entertainment with the various dances was entertaining. The sound was too loud.
Attentive crew!

Response from the owner 11:02 27 Oct 25

Dear Li Shin PAO,Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the cruise, the food, and our entertainment onboard.

The ride was fun! Perfect for families and friends. There is dances and and drums and a lot more. The buffet was mid considering there was not much but it was okay. The worth of the money isn’t really worth it. If you are Willing to sit at the top without much humidity, then it will be good. We came at a time that had humidity which wasn’t good considering the weather.

Response from the owner 10:50 28 Aug 25

Dear Mr. Yousef,Thank you for sharing your experience with Celeste Cruise! We're happy to hear you enjoyed the ride and entertainment.
