As always, Windstar has absolutely incredible service. The crew goes out of their way to be helpful and friendly. Even crew members I didn't think I knew, knew my name! I was worried about a 16 night winter cruise in the Mediterranean but it was fine. The weather was chilly but dry in all but one port. Winds kept us out of Genoa and it was a little bumpy on the last night. Anna's ...

Just back from another great Windstar cruise (our 14th). This time we took a back-to-back Star Collector 14-day cruise from Barbados on the Wind Spirit. We were on the Wind Spirit last May (also reviewed) with some friends so I will just highlight some of the changes we noticed since then. This time we sailed as a couple. All-in-all, a nice relaxing cruise. Lo and behold, we chose this ...

San Juan To San Juan fabulous 14 day vacation. Crew and food were exceptional. Loved our cabin and the ship. Enjoyed the beautiful ports. There was a mechanical issue with one of the lifeboats. Enjoyed an extra day in Old San Juan. Each passenger was generously compensated for the delay. We missed st Maartin and down town crowded Charlotte Amale but the Captain made up for it stopping at a ...

Many times on Windstar, second time taking this particular cruise. Windstar provides a relaxing environment, with lots of quite time. Nice pool and sun decks, with a small pool and one hot tub. Ship was well maintained and clean. No casino, shows, rock climbing, water slides. etc. No children. Several dining venues all of which are terrific. No charges for alternative dining, every guest gets one ...

After our positive experience with the Wind Spirit last December in Tahiti we decided to go with them again for this cruise. We were not disappointed. Actually ended up with the same waiter (Sunu) and bartender (Felix) and Table 13 in Amphora . Captain Mark and his team were outstanding. Our room attendant Tuti couldn't do enough to help. All comments on my Tahiti review were the same here. The ...

Great that this cruise left from Boston. Easy on and smooth check-in process. Highly engaged crew made the voyage fun. Nice rooms with sitting area and large window, no balcony. There was one US style plug outlet and 2 Euro style plugs and with 2 USB-A plugs. I was glad I brought my Euro adapter to be able to use the additional plugs. I would also recommend magnetic hooks as the walls are steel ...

Background: We've done LOTS of cruises but nothing like Windstar, including Holland America, Carnival, Princess, Celebrity, NCL (Suites and regular), MSC Yacht Club, and most recently Explora. Windstar is our favorite of all! What we liked: 1. The service. Warm. Sincere. But also laidback. Soooo laidback and casual. They don't rub "luxury" in your face all the time the way Explora does. The ...

We come from the land of ice & snow, from the midnight sun and the hot springs blow ... will drive our ships to new lands... Different 70's band but spot on for our 3d refrain on WS, which is a more a yacht rock experience. This review will be on the longish side so forewarned is etc., etc. and if you get bored, then "blow a kiss and say good bye." Here goes - a little compare w/ ...

We sailed Star Legend on the Atlantic Archipelago Adventures itinerary with high expectations that were met and exceeded! The ship is not necessarily the flashiest or most glamorous in design or decor, but it is tasteful and comfortable. Our priority was service and comfort and Windstar excelled at both. We were in Suite (Owner's Suite) which was phenomenal. I've been in smaller ...

My husband and I just returned from the Wind Surf cruise RT Rome with stops in Sicily, Malta, Lipari, and the Amalfi coast. We are in our 60s,70s with over 25 cruises. This was our first Windstar cruise and we enjoyed it very much. I put it down as one of my top 3 cruises and we have done the mass market (Celebrity, NCL, Royal in suites) as well as Seabourn, Viking, Oceania, Azamara, and ...
