The company culture runs deep. The entire crew was happy, helpful and open to answer any questions or requests. Very relaxed environment, able to eat without a reservation, laundry was done quickly and well, room was always made up. We will definitely book with Windstar again! A few of the employees that went above and beyond
Pros: Personal service, happy employees, plenty of areas to socialize or spend quiet time
Cons: Changed Sailing time cut our time in Sorrento/Pompeii/ short

Crew members appear to be a "family", and all are very attentive to passenger needs. Food was outstanding -- about the best we've had on any cruise (and we've been on 30+ cruises). WindStar makes an effort to be at ports when the larger ships aren't, which means fewer people in port cities and easier touring. Our cruise offered Dinner at Ephesus: fabulous!!! This was our reason for taking the cruise and it lived up to expectations. Our cabin was comfortable, with more storage space than many larger cruise ships. And the pre-cruise hotel was outstanding, with a beautiful view of the Acropolis from the dining room.
Pros: Small ship with only 140 passengers, Itinerary, Cabins, Food, Crew
Cons: Ship needs refurbishment and will get it in 11/23.

It was a wonderful week and met quite a few people we enjoyed spending time with around the pool and hot tubs. The crew went above and beyond and always had a smile. The deck bbq was a fun night with crew and guests dancing, definitely a highlight. It will be hard to go back to the bigger ships after sailing windstar.
Pros: Food was delicious, crew were outstanding, rooms were a nice size for 2 people and it was perfect for relaxing with its laidback vibe
Cons: The wifi was terrible and the shore excursions were not the best
