Star Explorer
The Star Explorer Is Windstar's Most Anticipated New Yacht in Years
The Star Explorer is one of the few ships in any fleet where being an early guest actually means something. This is a brand new vessel, Windstar's freshest take on the Star Class, and the itineraries running in her first-ever season give you the rare combination of a ship that hasn't been sailed in yet and a line that already knows exactly what it's doing.
At 224 guests and 130 international crew, the Star Explorer sits firmly in yacht territory. The scale keeps things personal on a 431-foot ship that moves at 16 knots and docks in ports that larger vessels can't touch. Nearly every one of the 112 suites has either a full private veranda or a floor-to-ceiling infinity window.
The headline addition for Star Explorer is Basil + Bamboo, a new specialty restaurant that brings Asian-inspired cuisine into the Windstar dining experience. It's a genuine differentiator and worth planning an evening around early in the voyage before the reservations fill up. Every suite across the board comes with a queen bed with luxury linens, L'Occitane bath amenities, a fully stocked minibar, walk-in closet, and in-room filtered water.
Book the Star Explorer today and get on board before the rest of the world catches on.
