We travel with Windstar Cruises and we vacation with Windstar Cruises. Since we are from the freezing Northeast, we like to vacation in the Caribbean preferable early winter. We were fortunate to spend 17 days on the Surf over the Christmas Holiday. When traveling in the Caribbean in December the sea can be rougher but usually not that bad. This trip the ocean was not really choppy but it did have swells which lying the their great WS bed rocked us to sleep. These swells did cause us to not to be able visit Falmouth Harbor and St. Barts twice but WS made other great substitutions. We went into St. John's, Antigua, the day of the final for the World Cup and that was fantastic and fun watching it with the people of Antigua. We also went into Basseterre, St. Kitts twice which we thought was great due to the beautiful vistas and great beaches.

This cruise had a great itinerary with three beautiful days in the BVIs and a daylight sail from one island to the next through the BVIs. We love the BVI's they are like a lovely island necklace circling the Caribbean Sea. Sitting deck side, under the sails looking out at the splendid vistas is " We are lucky to be alive " sailing experience.

Singularly, Windstar Cruises has the best crew and service of any travel provider, they are consistently, 100% excellent. After 27 cruises with Windstar, while always excellent, this cruise food shined absolutely delicious. The laundry service is better than any laundry we have at home, plus it enables us to travel very light. Read more
