We took a last minute cruise on the beautiful Windsurf sailing ship, part of the Windstar group, a little known USA company that has gorgeous masted sailing ships for a select group of passengers....

This was our 6th crossing of tha Atlantic in sailing cruise ship - 3rd with Wind Star, others in Star Clipper. We joined in Lisbon after an overnight stop over - always a fun place to visit and...

Venice is the most beautiful city in the world and everyone knows it. Departing from Venice by sailing down past the Grand Canal is a mind blowing event. Sipping Blinnis as you sail past St...

I was travelling by myself so, of course, I paid more! One thing I did learn is that Americans get better deals than non-Americans, as I am on the Windstar mailing list and kept receiving offers,...

We have recently returned from a fabulous week in the Caribbean on the Windsurf.... We splashed out on a bridge suite and were absolutely delighted with everything from start to finish. Of course...

Last minute decision to go, but what a good one! So different from previous cruises as all the crew get to know you and your preferences so quickly. Met some great fellow guests, the informal...

We liked the look of the Windstar ships with their sails out - so much more appealing than some of the "apartment blocks on the water" that we'd seen, so we added a week on the Wind Surf onto the...

As we have come to expect of Windstar Cruises, everything was up to their usual very high standard. Sailing out of Venice and then back into the same port was one of the highlights. The food was...

Sorry to say that this cruise didn't live up to the 180o from ordinary that it claimed it would. The ports of call were great, the food was better than some cruise lines we have sailed with and the...

My wife and I had an excellent relaxing cruise on the Wind Surf, starting and ending in Rome (Civitaveccia) and taking in Ischia, Capri, Amalfi, Sorrento, Ajaccio & Livorno, with one day at...

Lovely ship with huge sails. Fantastic to see when the sails are up - which is most of the time at sea. Lovely cabin, contemporary with lots of facilities - and very light - and a good size. All...

Well - this was different! The difference started when we arrived by taxi at the port, where we found one sleepy port official who waved us straight through down the quay. We trundled our bags...

Our cruise was with the Windstar line and we sailed on the Windsurf, a small boat by cruising standards, with a capacity of just over 300 passengers. This was our first ever cruise and the problem...

This was our fifth cruise with Windstar and our fourth on Windsurf. On embarkation in Barcelona we were greeted with a smiling face and a "hello again" from one of the crew who had served us the...

Went on the med last year on the royal clipper tall ship 5000tons off wood and sail it was amazing time in my life at 38 years off age to do this. the ship was full with a list off only 240...

180 degrees from normal is their catchphrase and they are certainly that, from the scheduled BA flight to Nice and transfer to Monte Carlo to the transfer from Civitavecchia to Rome Airport on...

We have just returned from the most relaxing cruise holiday ever .After a short flight and transfer had a smooth check in[accompanied by a glass of fizz!] Our cabin was spacious,spotlessly clean...

The Windstar. Venice to Dubrovnik 26 July to 2nd Augut 2008. Firstly let us address the headings as detailed above; There is only one restaurant for dinner and it is open seating, no sittings...

Sailing in Wind Star (yes, real sailing as she has sails to assist)is a true 5 star plus experience. The ships are small with 150 max guests (we had 54)- it is like being on your own private yacht...
