Operates small-ship luxury cruises worldwide

Windstar Cruises operates a small-ship cruise line that runs six sailing and all-suite yachts, carrying under 350 guests each.

Onboard and ashore, guests enjoy a high level of service and a notable culinary program, highlighted by the title of Official Cruise Line of the James Beard Foundation.

The goal is to offer travelers distinctive, authentic itineraries with personalized service and a softer footprint compared with larger cruise lines.
