Rent a Bentley in United Arab Emirates

Bentley Rentals in the UAE

The UAE is the world's most active Bentley rental market — Dubai alone has more Continental GTs and Flying Spurs in daily circulation than any other city on earth. Demand comes from tourists, business visitors, and expatriates who treat Bentleys as practical luxury transport rather than occasional indulgences. Rates start around AED 1,200/day for a Continental GT V8 and reach AED 3,500–4,500/day for a Flying Spur W12 or Bentayga Speed.

Models Available

The Continental GT comes in two distinct flavours: the W12 (650hp, 0–60 in 3.6s) for maximum grand touring power and the V8 (542hp) for marginally better economy on longer runs. Both are available in coupe and convertible (GTC) form — the convertible carries a premium of AED 300–500/day. The Flying Spur W12 (626hp) is the preferred choice for chauffeur-style transport and self-drive airport-to-hotel runs; it returns better fuel economy than expected on the Abu Dhabi highway. The Bentayga (542–626hp SUV) is popular with families and groups — the only Bentley that comfortably carries four adults plus luggage. The Bentayga Speed (626hp) is the range's most performance-focused derivative and available through premium UAE companies.

Costs

UAE Bentley rental pricing typically includes CDW insurance with no excess or a reduced excess (AED 2,000–5,000). Deposits run AED 5,000–10,000 on credit card. Mileage is generous: 300–500km/day at most companies, reflecting the country's long intercity distances. Watch for airport collection surcharges (AED 200–500 at DXB and AUH), under-25 premiums (AED 200–400/day), and fuel return requirements — the W12's tank costs around AED 400 to refill.

Where to Rent

Dubai has the deepest Bentley inventory in the region, with companies operating throughout Downtown, the Marina, and Jumeirah. Abu Dhabi has a smaller but reliable supply, particularly useful for Yas Island and capital-based corporate travel.

Driving Experience

The Bentley's character suits UAE roads particularly well. The Flying Spur on Sheikh Zayed Road — 130km/h, air conditioning set to 19°C, W12 barely above idle — is grand touring at its purest. The Continental GT convertible on the Palm Jumeirah or along Jumeirah Beach Road in the evening is the social event the car was designed for.

The Hatta Mountain Road (D44) provides the only genuinely dynamic driving near Dubai. The Bentayga Speed handles the hairpins credibly, though the Continental GT's low-slung chassis prefers the smoother UAE motorways to the mountain road's rougher asphalt.

Speed cameras operate throughout the UAE. Fines are substantial (AED 300–3,000) and transfer to the rental company, appearing on your card weeks later.
