'180° from ordinary.' Among luxury cruise lines, Windstar Cruises is indeed unique. Only Windstar Cruises has motor-sailing yachts. When the wind is good (not too light, not too strong), the sails come out and off you go. No wind, no problem... The motors will get you there.
Luxury not only comes with sail, but in also comes in 'small'. The Wind Spirit and Wind Star cruise ships accommodate less that 150 passengers each. Their largest ship, the Wind Surf, holds less than 310.
Though their size does limit the availability of entertainment, these small luxury ships offer tip top service, five star meals, a casino and enjoyable stateroom accoutrements like DVD and flat screen TV.
