Cote d'Azur warm sunny days, cool nights. Winter in the Med leans towards fewer crowds and traffic.

Like anywhere globally if you are travelling in the Christmas time frame, well its busy at the airports.

I loved that the Spa has open door policy that you can access the full facilities only booking/paying for treatments. The All-inclusive aspect which covers Gratuties, WiFi, Beverages (All speciality coffees, beer, wine and cocktails). Last but not least is the level of service from all of the Windstar family. This small ship luxury is 180 degrees from ordinary.
