What's New for Windstar Cruises?

Meet impressive Star Seeker in 2026. This beautiful all-suite yacht will bring an intimate and luxurious atmosphere and upgraded amenities and offer amazing Japan and Alaska cruises after inaugural voyages in the Caribbean.

Since late 2023 Windstar Cruises has embarked on a multi-year refresh of their Wind Class yachts through 2026. They plan to redesign public spaces, update gym and spa interiors, add larger TVs in staterooms, bring faster Internet connection, and introduce cutting-edge sound systems to the redesigned lounges aboard Wind Star, Wind Spirit, and Wind Surf and complete their stateroom and dining enhancements.

As part of the company's $250 million Star Plus initiative completed in 2022, Windstar Cruises brought a whole new meaning to "refurbishment." Their 3 Star Class ships (Star Breeze, Star Legend, and Star Pride) were completely transformed into Star Plus Class vessels to provide you more of what you love about cruising with Windstar. Additions included 50 new suites and redone bathrooms in all suites, more alternative restaurants, a new spa, an infinity pool, improved tenders, and 4 new engines per ship for better fuel efficiency.
