Windstar Cruises

Windstar Cruises delivers an intimate, yacht-style cruising experience that blends immersive itineraries, exceptional cuisine, and personalized service. With a fleet of small sailing and all-suite motor yachts carrying between 148 and 342 guests, Windstar offers access to lesser-traveled ports, hidden harbors, and authentic cultural encounters—making each journey feel personal, unhurried, and deeply enriching.

Yacht-Style Cruising That Goes Beyond the Expected

Windstar’s small ships are designed for travelers who value discovery, authenticity, and elegance without excess. Whether sailing under billowing white sails or cruising aboard a sleek all-suite yacht, guests enjoy a casually luxurious atmosphere where personalized service and local immersion take center stage.

• Intimate ships with a relaxed, uncrowded environment and a high staff-to-guest ratio
• Access to off-the-beaten-path ports, scenic anchorages, and UNESCO destinations
