Ships
With only 212 guests, a Star Breeze cruise will make you feel like you're on board your own private small ship almost as soon as you step aboard and large enough to pamper and entertain you, yet small enough to tuck into delightful tiny harbors and hidden coves that others can’t reach.
With only 212 guests, a Star Legend cruise will make you feel like you're on board your own private small ship almost as soon as you step aboard and large enough to pamper and entertain you, yet small enough to tuck into delightful tiny harbors and hidden coves that others can’t reach.
With only 212 guests, a Star Pride cruise will make you feel like you're on board your own private small ship almost as soon as you step aboard and large enough to pamper and entertain you, yet small enough to tuck into delightful tiny harbors and hidden coves that others can’t reach.
The Wind Spirit is a sleek, 4-masted sailing ship accommodating 148 guests. With four decks, Wind Spirit feels like your own private small ship. With wide open, teak decks, guests will find hidden nooks for private moments giving them a feeling of being on their own ship.
The Wind Star is a sleek, 4-masted sailing ship accommodating 148 guests. With four decks, Wind Star feels like your own private small ship. With wide open, teak decks, guests will find hidden nooks for private moments giving them a feeling of being on their own ship.
On any day, our 310-guest flagship, Wind Surf, draws admiring glances as she glides majestically into port with her tall sails billowing. And her beauty is far more than skin deep.

Recommend Small Ship Cruising

Amazing trip on a great vessel. Windstar small ship cruising was a perfect fit for us. Service and attention to detail were on par with Ritz Carlton or better. Definitely recommended.

Smaller ships worth considering
By: KenC
Reviewed on: 22 Dec 2016
The Star Breeze was in decent but not great shape. It was evident that the ship was older and had some visible wear and tear on the exterior (rust and corrosion) and in our cabin. I understand that the Star Breeze had undergone a refit recently - however, the wooden furniture in the our stateroom (317) was faded and worn. The pipes underneath the sinks had some rust/corrosion and the toilet tank had pulled away from the wall. The staff was quite friendly and helpful-many quickly learned our names and made the experience more personable. Our cabin steward and the dining staff were efficient and helpful. The bar staff were particularly helpful and entertaining. Having a naturalist on board as we tranisted Panama Canal was good. The food was good. Breakfast provided more than adequate choice and quality. Lunch was good tho I skipped it several times eating in town or a sandwich at the Club. Dinner was very good. The Osso bucco and duck l'orange was excellent. Limited wine selection.

Another Excellent Windstar Experience
By: Kathy
Reviewed on: 03 Jun 2017
This was our second voyage with Windstar, and we thought it was even better than the first. The ship is clean and comfortable and the cabins, while not huge, were well-appointed and comfortable. The food was excellent and always perfectly-prepared. The on-board entertainment is somewhat limited, as one would expect on a ship this size, but perfectly adequate. We would recommend Windstar to anyone interested in a small ship experience.

Glitter and Glam of the Riviera

From start to finish this cruise was 5 stars! I can't say enough about how professional and kind all of the staff were on this cruise. They know your name from day 1 and take note of the little things that make your time aboard very special! Each morning our server brought me my cappuccino and my husband his tea and at dinner they were careful to note any food allergies. We celebrated my 50th birthday and our 23rd wedding anniversary while on the ship! We were treated to a very special dinner and personal cake to finish! The food each day was so fresh and delicious and the BBQ on deck was over the top with seafood, grilled pork and beef and sides galore. The gym and spa were very clean and perfect for what we needed. Each day was a new adventure with each city offering us so much to explore!! I would definitely book with Windstar again!

Hot!

Ship and crew were fine. Ship is older and I had some headroom issues (6-5). Had a pretty good scab on my knoggin by the end of the week! The biggest disappointment was they only let the swim platform down one afternoon on a 10 day cruise. I wish they would have left a couple of ports early to anchor out and let people swim since the ship really doesn't have a pool.

We enjoyed a great trip on the star breeze. It is a little worn but the cabins are huge and the crew so nice. We loved the itinerary we had to Croatia and Italy. Myron our cruise director was the best. I would recommend this ship for others that don't care about nightlife the ship is pretty quiet at night but we were so busy each day we were glad to get some rest. Windstar is a great size ship and the crew is so attentive.

Windstar: Costa Rica and Panama
By: Fred
Reviewed on: 11 Feb 2018
Comfortable, pleasant, well fed and watered. Educational day trips, with exception of Panamanian tourism infrastructure, well planned and executed. Costa Rica very travel friendly. Panama Canal a true highlight. Ships are 30 year old and infrastructure will require updating. This is our 4’th voyage with Windstar and were pleased that we participated. Travel arrangements and accommodations were seamless and very comfortable.

Seven days just isn't long enough! Our first Windstar cruise was 10 days, and now we know we need to make the next one a two week trip. We LOVE the Windstar attitude. All the staff is just like family, so friendly and helpful and after a day or two, they know what you like and have it ready. We'll be back!

Star Breeze
By: Gayle
Reviewed on: 16 Nov 2018
The stateroom was very spacious and comfortable. The staff was wonderful - always going the extra mile and remembered our names, preferences, etc immediately.
The food was wonderful.
The only "weak spot" was the excursion director. We felt there wasn't much helpful information given if you chose to explore a port on your own. The excursions we took were good as were the tour guides, but expensive and sometimes we prefer to look around on our own. He gave a list of names of things to see but with no photos or descriptions it was meaningless.

Warm, intimate, informal but luxurious
By: Micki
Reviewed on: 11 Jan 2019
We were 3 families making up an extended family of 12, ranging in age from 11 to 90, gathering to celebrate an important occasion. The ship was small (212 passengers) -- informal enough to keep the younger people happy and luxurious enough to meet the needs of the well-traveled older couple. The excursions were varied enough to meet the adventurous tastes of the young and the more conservative needs of the old. The officers and crew, including waiters and stewards, went out of their way to establish a mood of celebration and to make it an extremely memorable and enjoyable trip for all of us. The officers ensured that we had a private, beautifully prepared venue for a celebration dinner and even provided a photographer for special photos prior to the event. We were very grateful.
