Passenger Reviews

"Windstar appeals to a unique niche. If you want rock climbing, 30 restaurant and pseudo-Broadway shows, this is NOT the ship for you. However, if you want a cruise to relax, meet people from all over the globe, eat very good food and go to ports many large ships cannot access, then Windstar is perfect."

Editorial Reviews

"Windstar Cruises' trio of sleek, masted sailing ships, with computer-directed sails, offer an intriguing balance of sophisticated pampering, exceptional service and luxurious amenities -- all amidst an oh-so-casual atmosphere. The ships, technically know as motor-sail-yachts, carry 148 to 312 passengers, and feature teak decks, rich wood interiors, light cuisine, extensive wine lists and attentive staff. Passenger-to-crew ratios are a high 1.5 to 1, resulting in a superb level of personalized service. "
