Star Explorer
All-Suite Yacht
Be among the first guests abord our newest addition to the Windstar fleet! With just 224 guests and 112 suites, Star Explorer is an intimate all-suite yacht small enough to reach places larger vessels can't. She'll dock steps from the heart of Venice for Carnival, sail up the Thames River passing under Tower Bridge into central London and explore the European heartland via river journeys larger cruise ships cannot navigate.
Star Explorer will be sailing Europe year-round: a Mediterranean debut during Local Season and a Northern Europe summer before returning to the Mediterranean in fall.

World Spa by Windstar, with a grand entrance from the deck above, plus a fitness facility.
