| Stateroom: After |
Windstar Cruises continues to evolve its fleet with three million dollars of stateroom upgrades scheduled for
Wind Star and
Wind Spirit, the two smallest sister yachts of the fleet.
Wind Star’s 72 guest staterooms will be renovated in a dry dock this November (the stateroom pictured at left was already completed as a model showcase room).
Wind Spirit is scheduled to have its 73 staterooms completed in April of 2015.
“We have a company-wide commitment to ensuring our yachts are constantly evolving to give our guests the best luxury experience possible,” said Hans Birkholz, chief executive officer and president of Windstar Cruises. “These latest enhancements, along with the renovations done in early 2012, will make our staterooms some of the best in the luxury market.”

The current layout (at right) will be transformed with a sofa where guests can relax, watch TV or catch a cat-nap to replace the previous desk and vanity set-up. When room service is ordered, or if guests want a place to write or use a laptop or tablet, the middle section of the sofa converts into a table, with seats at each end. Additionally, the center dresser located next to the bed will be exchanged for a new space saving dresser that will give guests more open area in the stateroom.

Staterooms on both yachts were previously enhanced as part of Windstar’s $18 million fleet-wide renovation project in 2012. Across the fleet, staterooms were updated with leather headboards, stately arm chairs, linen wall coverings, new lighting features, elegant window coverings, plush wool carpeting, art work, and stylish bed cushions. Corridors were completely renovated from floor to ceiling with new wall coverings, carpeting, ceiling finishes, lighting, and art work.
“Guests are staying in our model showcase stateroom on
Wind Star, and the reviews so far have been outstanding,” said Birkholz. “The new layout really exemplifies yacht-style cruising.”
