Great service by mrplombard

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Wind Surf

We had a magical trip, especially seeing the Stromboli volcano erupting, and listening to PJ sing opera as we were sailing away from the beautiful Amalfi coastline. Wonderful trip!

Awesome Windstar cruise by bkd03

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Wind Surf

Was first time on Windstar sailing ship. Did other motorized ships from Windstar. Again staff, crew, very professional. Ship was clean and well taken care of. All dining venues were excellent. Had a wonderful time. Weather was perfect too. Cannot wait to go on another Windstar trip next year. Already booked.

Leave the noise behind. by mspier

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Wind Surf

We have sailed with Windstar on two previous occasions. This trip was the best yet. Ship has lots of outdoor deck space allowing for quiet privacy. The officers and crew were outstanding! If you want to leave your noisy life behind, this is the way to do it.

Would have been great but for the weather :( by nperez29213400

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Wind Surf

I went on this cruise to visit specific ports like St. Barts & Anguilla. Both of those stops were removed due to inclement weather. Since we anchored and then tendered ashore, choppy seas had an effect on the itinerary. Ship and service were phenomenal with zero complaints. I imagine that they had lots of negative feedback from other guests about the itinerary changes. Many were disappointed, like me. The service team did their utmost to keep guests engaged and informed with all the changes.

Good cruise, even though two ports were missed due to weather by errohauer

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Wind Surf

Good cruise. Would probably go with them again. Take your sea sick medicine. Sign up for the excursions before the cruise, as some sold out. Be flexible, as itinerary can change due to water/weather conditions. Staff did a good job with arranging new excursions when itinerary changed.

More than expected! by elizmak

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Wind Surf

This was our second time aboard Wind Surf & it was a terrific experience. Wind Surf is a gorgeous yacht, welcoming and comfortable; tender staff to the Captain are attentive & genuninely care about your safety, food & beverage can not be beat, wait-staff are knowledgable and make every effort to make your dining experience the very best it can be; and every single WindStar staff person is friendly and accomodating, 'No' is not a word every heard.

Great way to see Spain by raymondconlon

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Wind Surf

I traveled alone which is how I take many trips. The atmosphere is open to meeting other travelers. My room was fine, the meals good and the bartenders were there whenever I wanted a drink. Seating was always available so the ship never seemed crowded. It was my first cruise and a very enjoyable experience.

Fabulous Cruise by MarinMo

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Wind Surf

I love the smaller sailing ship experience. The ship was not too big, and it was easy to get to know the other travelers. The dining experiences were very good. We had a blast at the outdoor barbeque in Kotor. The ship was still in dock, and the people in the port were envious of all the fun we were having dancing on the boat!

Great First Cruise Experience by chriso111

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Wind Surf

This was our first ever cruise, so have no basis of comparison. But we loved the Windstar experience and already talking about taking another European cruise with them. I would highly recommend this itinerary. We had no interest in cruising on large ships and this trip certainly reinforced that opinion.

Fantastic Caribbean Cruise! by gimack

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Wind Surf

It was our first cruise and we shared with another couple that had been on one before. They said it would be a special cruise due to the limited number of guests on the ship. It was quaint and very personable, we got to meet many of the staff members and share positive times. completing this first small cruise, I could not see myself going on one of the larger ships.

Carribean and covid are still both around. Have patience, wear your masks, and stay socially distant and you will have a great timr.

Transatlantic on Wind Surf by billmeek

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Wind Surf / Destination: Transatlantic

Great experience - my fourth ocean crossing with WindStat and my second on the Surf. Recommendation: The passengers on the trans ocean voyages are mature, experienced travelers. They are not entertained by the irritating teen-age music that plays most of the time in the public spaces, especially at breakfast! Give us old folks the peace and quiet that we seek on our sea voyages. How about some classical chamber music?

Great way to see the Mediterranean Coast by ncgofer

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Wind Surf / Destination: Europe - Mediterranean

Loved being able to unpack our suitcases and then wake up each morning in a new port. It's a great way to see a big part of the coast and different cities without having to repack and travel with our stuff to each location. We loved that convenience of it.

Boat in Need of Repair-Nothing worked by lmcgaan

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Wind Surf / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Having sailed on a smaller Windstar ship in the past we had high expectations. This ship was in dire need of repair. We had problems for 4 days on/off with toilet not working. Problems with water not being hot intermittently. Stateroom door lock took 3 different times to have someone repair the battery over two day period. The staff were certainly not to blame as they can only work with product they are given. We were given a $400 credit due to the toilet not working which was appreciated but would rather have had it work properly. I won't be sailing on another Windstar Cruise.

Relaxing Cruise by vlbufford

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Wind Surf / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

It was a very relaxing and nice cruise. Sometimes the Excursion fellow James is a little "fake" and seems only interested in helping you if you booked your excursion from Windstar. Not enough relevant information is given for Port visits that are so short. The Sailing part was a big disappointment compared to the "Royal Clipper" you may want to spy on how they do things.
