Here are even more reasons to discover the romance of sailing with Windstar.
Private Yacht-Style Cruising: Each of Windstar's six beautiful small ships
carries no more than 310 guests, so you'll never feel part of a crowd or have to wait in lines--for anything!
It's like spending a week on a friend's personal luxury yacht.
Small Ports with Complimentary Shore Excursions: See more, linger longer,
and visit intimate ports that only the smallest ships can venture into. You'll also enjoy handcrafted shore excursions
that open your heart to the people and the places you're visiting.
Pampered, Personalized Service: The way you're treated on a Windstar cruise is legendary,
from the crew greeting you by name the moment you step aboard to catching you by surprise when bringing you just the right thing at the right time.
Truly Customized Cruising: It begins with the freedom to choose how you sail, with the pleasures and
little luxuries you want. From personalized shore excursions to alcoholic beverage packages, what's included on your cruise is up to you.
Explore These Far-Flung Corners of the World in Small-Ship Style
Seductive Tahiti: Sail for 7, 10, or 11 days when you step aboard Wind Spirit, a luxury sailing yacht that takes you to the most serene destinations in Tahiti. Experience intimate harbors, crystal-clear coves, and pristine white sands. The islands of French Polynesia invite you to discover their own distinct magic. Hop ashore to the enchanted landscapes of Moorea, or explore Raiatea's lush forests and black-pearl farms. Melt into the warm lagoons surrounding the exquisite peaks of Bora Bora. Relax on board as your yacht glides into small bays other cruise ships can't reach and drops anchor in shallow waters teeming with schools of tropical fish. Jump into a beautiful palm-fringed lagoon from the yacht's Watersports Platform. Or simply unwind on deck, enjoying paradise and endless pampering.
Don't Miss this Offer: Rates start from $3,499/person and include round-trip airfare from LAX plus a one-night pre-cruise hotel stay at Le Méridien Papeete.
Quintessential Croatia: Here is an unspoiled slice of history and fascinating, fairytale lands to explore. Experience the amazing rainbow colors of Plitvice Lakes National Park and Lake Bled's magical island. Wonder at the medieval feel of Dubrovnik's charming Old Town and the living history within Split's Diocletian's Palace. Relax on perfect pebble beaches and savor the taste of fine Croatian wine and wild truffles. All this awaits as you cruise peacefully along the Adriatic coastline. Call your Hideaways Cruise Specialist (800-843-4433) for the best available rates.
Amazing Iceland: This 7-day itinerary sails from Reykjavik and circles the island, offering you the chance to soak in the soothing waters of the Blue Lagoon, admire the colorful historic homes of Seydisfjordur, meet a friendly Icelandic horse, sample "Viking sushi" (fermented shark), and witness the rainbow-colored beauty of Godafoss, "Waterfall of the Gods." The trip includes a complimentary Windstar Destination Discovery Event in Seydisfjordur, where you'll enjoy a concert at the picturesque Blue Church, sample local drinks and canaps--including reindeer meat--and be invited to join in a traditional ring dance performed outside the church, after which you can mingle with the locals at a nearby watering hole. Rates start from $4,399/person.
Colorful Costa Rica: Choose the 7-day cruise and find natural and man-made wonders combined as you see exotic Costa Rica and also experience a transit of the Panama Canal. Learn about the area from a local naturalist on board, then take a Zodiac ashore and find rare adventures for yourself. Hike through Manuel Antonio National Park in search of its lovely beaches and abundant animal life. Soar high above the Quepos jungle floor as you zip-line through the canopy, searching for such wildlife residents as monkeys, sloths, and toucans. If you choose the 10-day itinerary, you'll have more time to explore the wonders of Panama's white-sand beaches and cloud forests.
