We have been fans of Celebrity for many years and are Elite loyalty members. In September of 2022 we raved about our experience on The Beyond on two back-to-back Mediterranean itineraries. Remarkable!
Sailing The Apex this past July was not deserving of such accolades! We again sailed in a premium Retreat class suite, but the staff, food and beverage were not up to par. Were we treated ...
The ship is beautiful and modern. We were supposed to start and end in Amsterdam, but it was changed to Rotterdam. Boarding was easy, disembarking was a disaster. The terminal was too small for all the passengers. It was pouring rain with some suitcases left in the rain waiting to be claimed. There was no where to wait outside for transports without getting soaked in the rain. We were made to ...
Having been a travel agent and sailed Celebrity 5 previous times (pre-pandemic), I thought it would be a good choice to celebrate my daughter's graduation from nursing school with a cruise of the Baltic Sea.
After flying NY to Amsterdam, we never got her luggage, even though the flights were booked by Celebrity. That luggage was sent to our home in NY 4 days after we returned from the cruise. ...
1. First the celebrity Apex food is horrible, and had the same food every single day.
2. At night they have some cold sandwiches and pizza, which is open till midnight. Afterwards nothing is open to eat.
3. The person who makes the pizza, majority the pizza is thin crispy and burnt.
4. Have no sort of entertainment and shows.
5. Bingo is only for 2 days.
6. Everyday it’s a ...
We have been on approx 20 cruises
We have been pretty loyal to norweigan
But I have to say celebrity Apex hands down is the best
I give them a10 for everything
Staff /entertainment/food is the best of any line I’ve been on
The ship is managed very well in all areas
After this trip I am a celebrity customer for sure
The food is 5star in all rooms except that is step below but ...
The experience was average. The food is good in the main dining room with good service. But the food in the buffet is average at best ( and for a medium high cruise line this is disappointing ).
The price of the additional packages are excessive. Imagine you are on a 8 day cruise ( 7 days effectively as the last day finished at 6 am ), paying GBP 72 for a classic drink package ( effectively ...
Embarkation - Celebrity Silhouette embarkation was on a Saturday. We stayed overnight in a local hotel, very close to the terminal. A word of warning to anyone walking with their cases: the road down to the terminal is not a smooth journey, with broken pavements, rough surfaces and few lowered kerbs. However, once we arrived at the terminal the process could not have been more straightforward. ...
It's hard to describe how amazing the Galapagos are or to put in words what a wonderful trip we had, but I'd encourage anyone thinking of going to do it! There are many ships to choose from and I think the Xploration was the perfect choice for us. We chose it because of size: the boat can hold 16 guests, but we were a group of only 13. We still had two naturalists on board, so that gave us a lot ...
Having been on at least a dozen cruises with different lines, Celebrity has been our preferred line. This was our first time on the Apex and it is hands down our favorite ship.
Our itinerary took us to Iceland, Belfast, Liverpool and Dover. All ports were enjoyable, with Iceland being the standout.
The use of technology is prevalent everywhere, from informative electronic signage in the ...
Service was fantastic, food out of this world, no queuing for restaurants or getting off the ship, very well organised. Spotlessly clean, plenty of space around the ship and amazing art pieces plenty of outside space, pool and deck area never appeared busy, lots of beds and never a problem finding one, good large pool for swimming and great walking deck.
Bar staff excellent, little disappointed ...
