Star Legend

Get a personal closeup of fascinating destinations and exciting local cultures when you sail onboard Windstar Cruises’ grand small ship, Star Legend, a sister ship to Star Breeze. Though a small cruise ship instead of a 4-masted yacht, you will still feel embodied in Windstar’s famous yachting lifestyle. Big enough to hold just 312 guests, she will transport you to authentic destinations in Europe and the Mediterranean unreachable by large ocean liners. Some of the places that a Star Legend cruise takes you include Barcelona, Rome, and Venice, among others. The yacht's intimate size makes it easy for the staff to become acquainted with you and your preferences. A wonderful blend of onboard activities, thrilling shore excursions, and decadent cuisine will keep you coming back for more. If you’re seeking a laid-back yet luxurious cruise, this beautiful Star Plus Class ship will make all of your travel dreams come true.

Multi-Million Refurbishment

Star Legend was the second of the Star Class ships to undergo Windstar’s $250 Million Star Plus Initiative, in which the ship was stretched and underwent a re-engine in 2020-2021. As part of the Star Plus Initiative, the yacht got an extra 84 feet in length and received 50 additional brand-new suites, including two new Owner’s Suites, and new bathrooms/sliding glass balcony doors for existing accommodations. The ship also received a more fuel-efficient engine system, a larger pool, a redesigned spa, two new restaurants, new retail shops, and a larger fitness center. Windstar hired additional staff to maintain the cruise line’s fabulous 1.5:1 guest-to-staff ratio on Star Legend cruises.
