Windstar Cruises has unveiled an expansion of its cruise itineraries in the South Pacific, where it operates year-round.
Starting in 2026, Windstar will introduce new travel options that include visits to Fiji, Tonga, and the Cook Islands, alongside its current routes through Tahiti and the Society Islands, the Tuamotus, and the Marquesas. The company also revealed new shorter trip choices, such as a seven-night cruise in the Tuamotus and an eleven-night cruise to the Marquesas.
Additionally, there will be new air and hotel packages featuring overwater bungalows in Bora Bora, giving guests the chance to prolong their stay in these renowned islands.
The Star Breeze, an all-suite ship with a capacity for 312 passengers, operates in the South Pacific throughout the year and now offers more itineraries and destinations than ever, thanks to the new additions scheduled for 2026, according to the company.
To mark this exciting development, Windstar is introducing an early booking incentive. Guests who reserve a 2026 South Pacific cruise will receive a complimentary All-Inclusive experience valued at $89 per day per guest, which includes Wi-Fi, unlimited wine, beer, cocktails, and all gratuities, along with a $100 onboard credit for each stateroom.
“Tahiti is one of my favorite destinations on Earth, and I was excited to expand Windstar’s itineraries in the area to include the remote Marquesas Islands this year,” stated Windstar President Christopher Prelog.
He added, “These new offerings are a natural fit for us, as these distant South Pacific islands represent the essence of Polynesian culture. However, they are quite challenging to access, especially for those planning their own travels. With Windstar, you can easily sail to these locations aboard our all-suite ship, which hosts no more than 312 passengers. We can visit places like Tonga and Taveuni without overwhelming the local environment, culture, or tourism, thanks to our smaller size and the strong relationships we’ve maintained while operating in the region for many years.”
