About Windstar Cruises, the cruise line — and how a Smart Traveler expert can help you book it at the best value.

Windstar Cruises

Teak-lined decks. Towering sails. A vacation on Windstar is the ultimate affair for those who love the sea. On board, you'll discover a unique combination of romance with state-of-the-art luxury and convenience.

Yet Windstar is small enough to indulge the every whim of 148 or 312 guests. And because they're smaller than most, our ships can stop at the more exclusive ports and beaches, accessible only by yacht. Cruise to the magnificent Greek Isles, Mediterranean, Panama Canal, Caribbean or Costa Rica. Destinations you'll experience in Windstar style.

On a Windstar ship you're free to do as you please, on your own schedule. There's no dress code. Five-star dining is informal and casually elegant (leave the ties and formal gowns at home), complemented by a wide selection of fine wines.

Our spontaneous and gracious service offers one of the highest crew-to-passenger ratios. Often rated number one for our interesting itineraries, Windstar is truly an adventure in sailing, with a style all its own.
