About Windstar Cruises
2009 Editors' Picks Awards Winner!
Best Sailing Ship
The big question to ask about Windstar Cruises, these days, is what's new? The cruise line, formerly owned by Holland America Line, is now owned by Ambassadors Cruise Group, a subsidiary of Seattle-based Ambassadors International. Windstar consists of three different -- fairly venerable -- commercial sailing ships. Wind Star launched in 1986 and was followed by Wind Spirit in 1988. Wind Surf, built in 1990 as Club Med I, joined the fleet in 1998. Wind Song, an identical sibling to Wind Star that was introduced in 1987 and sailed in French Polynesia, was completely destroyed by a fire in 2002 (fortunately, there were no passenger or crew fatalities).
Windstar Cruises' 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. Passenger to crew ratios are a high 1.5 to 1, and a superb level of personalized service is the result. Windstar continues to upgrade and refurbish all its ships via its Degrees of Difference program, through which improvements have targeted cabins, public rooms, restaurants and below-deck mechanical operations.
