Windstar stands out in the luxury cruise market for its unique blend of yacht-style cruising with the amenities and services of larger ships. This distinctive approach provides travelers with an intimate and personalized voyage experience. The fleet comprises both traditional motor yachts and majestic sailing ships, allowing guests to experience the romance of sailing coupled with modern luxury. These smaller, sleek ships can navigate to ports and hidden coves beyond the reach of larger cruise vessels, offering itineraries that include some of the world's most coveted and less-visited destinations. From the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean to the ancient allure of the Mediterranean, and the remote wonders of the South Pacific, Windstar's destinations cater to the adventurous spirit while providing unparalleled luxury. Reflecting its relaxed yet refined atmosphere, Windstar adopts a "country club casual" dress code, eliminating the need for formal wear. This approach resonates with travelers seeking a luxury experience without the fuss of formal nights.

The onboard experience with Windstar is characterized by an understated elegance and a casual, yet sophisticated ambiance. With a passenger-crew ratio of 1.5 to 1, the service is attentive and personalised, ensuring that every guest feels pampered and well-cared for. Despite their smaller size, Windstar ships boast a variety of dining options, from casual al fresco meals to fine dining venues featuring gourmet cuisine. A partnership with the James Beard Foundation enhances this culinary experience, offering guests access to exclusive chef demonstrations and themed dinners. Read more

Windstar focuses on the authentic exploration of each destination, with fewer organised activities onboard compared to larger ships. This philosophy extends to the use of the ships' water sports platforms, where guests can engage in snorkeling, paddle boarding, kayaking, and other water-based activities directly from the ship. Onboard entertainment is low-key, fostering a tranquil atmosphere that encourages relaxation and connection among passengers.
