About this cruise

Before the festive season begins in earnest, this 14-night Caribbean cruise offers the chance to slow down and soak up some winter sun. Departing from Barbados, you’ll explore St Lucia’s verdant landscapes, Curaçao’s pastel harbour, Bonaire’s calm beaches and more. It’s a thoughtfully timed escape - warm, peaceful and rich with local flavour. Life on board Renaissance is equally relaxed, with outstanding dining, wide decks, attentive service and just the right amount of entertainment. Whether travelling with loved ones or simply taking time for yourself, this is a well-placed December break that combines adventure with calm, sunshine with stillness, and just enough celebration to feel the magic of the moment.

CRUISE HIGHLIGHTS

Pointe-à-Pitre
Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadeloupe’s lively port town, offers Creole markets, colonial charm and tropical rhythm. Browse spice stalls, hear live music echo through colourful streets and soak in the island’s French-Caribbean soul.

Fort de France
Colourful streets, lively markets and French-Caribbean flavour await in Fort de France. Explore historic Fort Saint-Louis, browse La Savane Park or taste Creole cuisine as island life unfolds all around you.

Kralendijk
Kralendijk, Bonaire’s small but vibrant capital, offers colourful streets, calm beaches and rich marine life. Stroll waterfront promenades or dive beneath the surface - this laid-back port invites you to explore at your own pace.

Itinerary

Arrives: 06 Dec 2026 | Barbados

Day 1 - Bridgetown

Located beside the island’s only natural harbour, the capital of Barbados combines modern and colonial architecture with glorious palm tree-lined beaches and a number of historical attractions. Experience the relaxed culture of the city renowned for its British-style parliament buildings and vibrant beach life, and seek out the Anglican church and the 19th-century Barbados Garrison.

location-icon

Arrives: 08 Dec 2026 | Martinique

Day 3 - Fort-de-France

The largest of the Windward Islands, Martinique is 4,261 mi (6,817 km) from Paris, but its spirit and language are decidedly French, with more than a soupçon of West Indian spice. Tangible, edible evidence of the fact is the island's cuisine, a superb blend of French and creole. Martinique is lushly landscaped with tropical flowers. Trees bend under the weight of fruits such as mangoes, papayas, l...

Arrives: 11 Dec 2026 | Sint Maarten (Dutch part)

Day 6 - Philipsburg

The capital of Dutch St. Maarten stretches about a mile (1½ km) along an isthmus between Great Bay and the Salt Pond and has five parallel streets. Most of the village's dozens of shops and restaurants are on Front Street, narrow and cobblestone, closest to Great Bay. It's generally congested when cruise ships are in port, because of its many duty-free shops and several casinos. Little lanes calle...

Arrives: 12 Dec 2026 | Antigua and Barbuda

Day 7 - Saint John's

With its superb beaches, historical attractions and beautiful coral reefs, Antigua provides a host of diversions. It is said that the island contains 365 beaches, one for every day of the year. Antigua maintains its traditional West Indian character, with gingerbread-house style architecture, calypso music and carnival festivities. St John’s has been the administrative capital since the island’s c...

location-icon

Arrives: 13 Dec 2026 | Saint Lucia

Day 8 - Castries

The typical image of a lush tropical paradise comes to life on the friendly island of St Lucia. Despite its small size – just 27 miles long and 14 miles wide – St Lucia is rich in natural splendour with dense emerald rainforest, banana plantations and orchards of coconut, mango and papaya trees. The twin peaks of Les Pitons, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site rise dramatically 2,000 feet into the sk...

Arrives: 16 Dec 2026 | Curaçao

Day 11 - Willemstad

Dutch settlers came here in the 1630s, about the same time they sailed through the Verazzano Narrows to Manhattan, bringing with them original red-tile roofs, first used on the trade ships as ballast and later incorporated into the architecture of Willemstad. Much of the original colonial structures remain, but this historic city is constantly reinventing itself and the government monument foundat...
