urope’s intimate ports and secret harbors are made even more spectacular when seen from the decks of the world’s #1-rated Small Ship Cruise Line. The 2014 Condé Nast Traveler’s Readers’ Choice Award demonstrates something Windstar guests have known all along — that nothing brings your dreams to life like Windstar. • Fewer than 300 guests. Large enough to pamper you in luxury, fine dining, and spacious living. Yet small enough to tuck into delightful harbors and hidden coves other can’t reach.
• Visit smaller ports and immerse yourself in exclusive local experiences only Windstar can offer. • Voted #1 in the world in value, personal service, and food.
• Legendary service. The best on the seas.

ith fewer than 300 companions on board guests soon become friends, not just faces. You accept the open invitation to drop by the Bridge and chat with the Captain — just as you would on your own private yacht. And when you find the perfect cove on a perfect day, you abandon other plans and dive off the Watersports Platform into cerulean blue waters, once home to gods and sirens. Small groups quickly dissipate on shore, circumventing the label of “tourist.” And exhausting all-day excursions to the likes of Capri, Cannes, and St.-Malo are passé. No need, when your lovely yacht takes you right there.

Only on Windstar’s small ships can you nestle next to colorful fishing boats along Italy’s picturesque Cinque Terre, experience bucolic life on the Isle of Mull, and explore the great outdoors by kayak, paddleboard, or sailboat directly from the Watersports Platform. It’s an intimate style of cruising that promotes connections, understanding, and a renewed sense of wonder.

indstar’s private yacht style suffuses every detail of our three all suite Star Class yachts, each accommodating just 212 guests. Recently renovated to the tune of $8 million each, they offer everything you need to savor the yachting lifestyle from fine Egyptian cotton linens to panoramic views from your expansive windows or French Doors — at a size that is large enough to pamper and entertain you, yet small enough to tuck into delightful tiny harbors and hidden coves that others can’t reach.
When you’re ready to make an appearance, the lounges, Yacht Club, Casino, and Library are waiting to be explored. Take some “you” time in the tranquil WindSpa … work off that decadent dessert in the Fitness Center … and, of course, you are always welcome to visit the Bridge to examine navigation charts with the Captain.
