About this cruise

This Christmas and New Year, trade tradition for something unforgettable. Departing from Barbados, this 14-night sailing explores Grenada, Curaçao, Tobago, St Lucia and St Kitts — each offering festive spirit in their own sunlit way. Spend Christmas Day on warm sands and welcome the New Year with music, dancing and celebration at sea. On board Renaissance, enjoy seasonal menus, thoughtful touches, and the warm company of fellow travellers. Full-board dining, daily entertainment and relaxed service make every moment feel special. It’s a joyful way to end the year — with no stress, no schedules and all the space you need to reflect, reconnect and relax. Whether you're celebrating with someone close or simply treating yourself, this is a season well spent in the heart of the Caribbean.

CRUISE HIGHLIGHTS

St. George
Grenada’s capital, St George’s, is steeped in spice and soul. Discover cinnamon stalls and nutmeg sellers at the bustling market, hike up to Fort George for panoramic harbour views or wander colourful streets lined with colonial charm. Whether you’re seeking flavour, history or serenity, this harbour town has a little of each - and a lot of heart.

Castries
Set between emerald peaks and bright harbours, Castries offers a gateway to St Lucia’s beauty. From bustling craft markets to nearby waterfalls and beaches, this port combines the island’s French-Creole spirit with unforgettable tropical scenery.

Scarborough
Scarborough, the vibrant capital of Tobago, blends wild rainforests with soft beaches and coastal rhythm. Browse colourful markets filled with spices and crafts, visit Fort King George for sweeping island views, or simply relax on nearby sands with the sound of steelpan in the air. It’s a port where nature, culture and calm Caribbean spirit all meet.

Itinerary

Arrives: 20 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. The distance b...

Arrives: 21 Dec 2026 | Grenada

Day 2 - Saint George's

Nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, cocoa those heady aromas fill the air in Grenada (pronounced gruh-nay-da). Only 21 miles (33½ km) long and 12 miles (19½ km) wide, the Isle of Spice is a tropical gem of lush rain forests, white-sand beaches, secluded coves, exotic flowers, and enough locally grown spices to fill anyone's kitchen cabinet. St. George's is one of the most picturesque capital cities in the C...

Arrives: 22 Dec 2026 | Saint Lucia

Day 3 - 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: 23 Dec 2026 | Trinidad and Tobago

Day 4 - Scarborough

Together, the islands of Trinidad and Tobago make up a state and as such are an independent member of the British Commonwealth. Located just off the coast of Venezuela, both islands are excellent getaways offering different attractions. While Trinidad pulses with life, the smaller and unspoiled island of Tobago is the place for a restful and relaxing holiday. Most of its appeal lies in the beautif...

Arrives: 25 Dec 2026 | Curaçao

Day 6 - 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...

Arrives: 26 Dec 2026 | Bonaire

Day 7 - Kralendijk

Arrives: 28 Dec 2026 | Guadeloupe

Day 9 - Pointe-à-Pitre

Arrives: 30 Dec 2026 | British Virgin Islands

Day 11 - Road Town, Tortola

Road Town, located on Tortola, is the capital and largest town of the British Virgin Islands. It is situated on the horseshoe-shaped Road Harbour in the centre of the island's south coast

Arrives: 31 Dec 2026 | Saint Kitts and Nevis

Day 12 - Basseterre, Saint Kitts

Mountainous St. Kitts, the first English settlement in the Leeward Islands, crams some stunning scenery into its 65 square miles (168 square km). Vast, brilliant green fields of sugarcane (the former cash crop, now slowly being replanted) run to the shore. The fertile, lush island has some fascinating natural and historical attractions: a rain forest replete with waterfalls, thick vines, and secre...

Arrives: 02 Jan 2027 | Martinique

Day 14 - 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: 03 Jan 2027 | Barbados

Day 15 - 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.
