Windstar Cruises small-ship luxury planning

Windstar Cruises Luxury Cruise Planning with Deluxe Cruises

Windstar combines sailing-yacht character, all-suite motor yachts, personal service, destination-focused routes, and the relaxed atmosphere of a private yacht.

With Deluxe Cruises, compare Windstar ships and yachts, accommodations, routes, inclusions, current fares, eligible offers, and available amenities, with one-to-one small-ship cruise planning.

Eligible group pricing and special offers

Before booking Windstar Cruises directly or through another agency, ask Deluxe Cruises to compare your quote. Eligible group rates, promotions or extra amenities may give you a lower fare or better overall value for the same yacht voyage and accommodation.

Offers must match the same ship or program, departure, accommodation category, occupancy, fare terms, and inclusions. Fares and amenities are subject to eligibility, availability, change, and the cruise line’s applicable terms; only benefits confirmed in writing apply.

The Windstar difference

Small-ship access with an unregimented yacht atmosphere

Windstar's scale supports a personal style of service and routes that can reach smaller harbors. The fleet ranges from romantic four- and five-masted sailing yachts to spacious all-suite motor yachts.

Open decks, close-to-the-water moments, regionally influenced dining, and a focus on time ashore shape the experience. Published amenities vary by yacht and voyage, so Deluxe Cruises confirms the details for the exact departure you select.

Questions travelers ask

Why plan a Windstar Cruises voyage with Deluxe Cruises?

Deluxe Cruises compares Windstar Cruises fares, eligible promotions and available amenities for your exact sailing and accommodation. We look for opportunities to lower your cost or add benefits, explain the fare conditions and provide personal support before and after booking. Your written quote confirms the price and benefits available to you.

What should travelers compare across Windstar Cruises ships and itineraries?

Compare the exact route, voyage number, dates, duration, ship, accommodation category and location, included services, current availability, and any family, medical, dietary, or accessibility requirements.

How do I request a personalized Windstar Cruises quote?

Email info@deluxecruises.com, call +1-702-501-7105, or use WhatsApp +1-702-900-9975 and identify the ship, dates, and itinerary you are considering.

What is included and not included on Windstar Cruises cruises?

Cruise-only fares publish accommodation, onboard meals and entertainment, including specialty dining, 24-hour room service, the signature barbecue and welcome champagne. Wi-Fi, selected beer, wine and cocktails and gratuities are included only with an All-Inclusive fare or package or a qualifying promotion, not with every cruise-only booking. Spa, shore excursions and personal services can cost extra.

What bed is provided for a child or third guest on Windstar Cruises ships?

Selected Star Plus and Star Class suites publish third-guest capacity, but the current verified record does not name the sleeping surface. Wind Class arrangements also vary by category. Deluxe Cruises will confirm the exact room and will not assume a sofa bed, rollaway, Pullman or berth.

Are shore excursions included on Windstar Cruises cruises, and can Deluxe Cruises help with alternatives?

Windstar shore excursions are optional and charged separately unless the exact booking states otherwise. Watersports-platform access and the Open Bridge are conditional onboard features, not shore-excursion inclusions. Each tour and booking term must be checked. If a preferred shore experience is not included, Deluxe Cruises can compare independent alternatives and check whether a lower price or better value is available than booking through the cruise line. Availability and savings vary and are confirmed before purchase.

How does Internet and Wi-Fi work on Windstar Cruises ships?

Wi-Fi is included only with an All-Inclusive fare or package or a qualifying promotion, not every cruise-only fare. The published package permits up to two connected devices; coverage, speed and uninterrupted performance are not guaranteed.

Can Deluxe Cruises help compare airfare for Windstar Cruises cruises?

Yes. Once you select a ship and voyage with Windstar Cruises, visit the Deluxe Cruises Cruise Airfare page to plan flights around the exact embarkation city, disembarkation city, and sailing dates. Deluxe Cruises can compare schedules, fare rules, baggage allowances, connections, and change options and look for potential savings. Airfares, availability, and savings vary and are confirmed before booking.

Where can I review cruise travel insurance information?

Visit the Deluxe Cruises Cruise Travel Insurance page to prepare for a quote and compare optional protection with Travel Insured.

How do I create a MyWindstar account and connect a cruise reservation with Windstar Cruises after booking with Deluxe Cruises?

Before you begin: After Deluxe Cruises confirms a cruise reservation with Windstar Cruises, use the email address associated with the Windstar reservation and Windstar's cruise-line confirmation details. Do not substitute a Deluxe Cruises invoice, receipt, or payment reference for a Windstar credential.

  1. Step 1 — Open Booked Guests: Choose Booked Guests or My Windstar from Windstar Cruises' official website.
  2. Step 2 — Create or open the account: Sign in with the registered email and password, or choose the account-creation option and use the email associated with the reservation. Existing Yacht Club members can follow Windstar's published profile instructions for their membership number and initial PIN.
  3. Step 3 — Use password recovery when needed: If the email already belongs to an account, use Forgot Password and follow Windstar's reset instructions instead of creating a duplicate.
  4. Step 4 — Find the voyage: Look for the Windstar Cruises reservation after sign-in and complete any matching or guest-information prompts Windstar displays. A current public manual booking-link field sequence has not been verified.
  5. Step 5 — Review available planning: Use My Windstar for the itinerary and released booked-guest services, including applicable shore excursions, transfers, hotels, add-ons, and other planning information.

If the Windstar Cruises reservation does not appear, verify that the My Windstar email matches the reservation, then contact Deluxe Cruises so your advisor can confirm the booking details with Windstar.

Portal functions and advance options vary by voyage and booking stage. Deluxe Cruises remains your travel advisor for reservation changes and assistance. Keep your My Windstar password private.
