Windstar Cruises Christmas and New Year

Windstar's Christmas and New Year luxury cruise deals provide some of the market's best sailing ship vacation options during the most joyful time of the year. Windstar ships offer stylish upscale voyages, marked by superior service and unique itineraries with less crowded ports of call along the route. On Windstar Christmas voyages guests will find active, well-traveled and well-educated passengers of all ages, hailing from the UK, North America, Australia, and New Zealand. They all enjoy the more laid-back atmosphere of the line's small ship cruise vacations, and the idea of tall ship sailing on custom-tailored itineraries.

The cheapest Windstar Cruises deals are on the line's round-trip Caribbean itineraries leaving from Philipsburg (Saint Maarten) and Bridgetown (Barbados) on the small ships Wind Surf and Wind Star. A feature December Holiday destination is French Polynesia on the ship Wind Spirit leaving from Tahiti. Other "new big ship" specialties are the recently acquired from Seabourn ships Star Pride, Star Breeze, and Star Legend, and their Panama Canal voyages from Colon (Panama) and Puerto Caldera (Costa Rica). The Windstar's New Year's Eve cruise experience features cozy, intimate and most sophisticated atmosphere. The line's a la carte pricing strategy (not common to other luxury lines) means paying extra for airfare, shore excursions, fitness classes, cocktails and the like.

So Windstar fares fall in the moderate category. "Casual elegance" is the dress code designated on board, and that idea overtakes the Holiday vibe. Guests leave ties and formal wear at home in favor of casual country club sportswear - day and night. Few are the organized activities and none of the Vegas-style typical lines revues. Each ship features a watersports marina. While the vessel is anchored in ports, passengers can try water sports activities (complimentary), like swimming, snorkelling, kayaking, paddleboarding, even wind sailing, and waterskiing. One of the biggest changes for the Windstar line is its dining options upgrade. Now cuisine aims to highlight the local food of the regions visited. Extra attention is paid to high quality and special dietary needs.
