Cruise ship was nice, but will not go on it again.

We chose celebrity Apex, knowing it was a newer ship, the good reviews, the port stops and a smaller ship. The Apex is a beautiful ship, new with all the bells and whistles. Very well maintained! Our cabin was roomy with storage in every nook and cranny. Usually I feel like we are overflowing but it is well planned out and comfortable. Bedding and selected pillow choices available. We did not ...

Chose this new type of ship for our first post-COVID cruise with great expectations, based on the reviews and our experiences with Celebrity. Even with a full ship for Presidents week, we were completely satisfied with the ship. Despite the full house, we never waited more than 5 minutes for a table or any service. Luckily we booked very early and got a great rate on a Sky Suite which had access ...

We went on this cruise for 2 reasons. 1. For us to experience a "new" class of Celebrity ship and 2. Joining a couple/friends who urged us to come along. OK, the Food was excellent, service was great, new ship more contemporary decor was wonderful, and the entertainment was Top Notch! We've been on at least 15 - 20 other Celebrity cruises and ships. I can't say enough GREAT things about the ...

This cruise was selected to get away for Valentine's Day. It also happened to be the Super Bowl week. We have been on the Edge before twice, once in blu and once in retreat, we wanted to try main dining room and see difference between all. So we ate in Tuscan each night and on Valentine's Day we ate in Eden. Embarkation day was very easy. I use a wheelchair to enter ship due to back and leg ...

We have been cruising since 1978. I must say the ship was beautiful, BUT.....The food in the dining rooms was terrible. The food choices were not good, and more like you would get in a diner. The service was very slow, and not up to par. The food was served barely warm. We were so disappointed after trying the dining room once for breakfast, and twice for dinner, that we ate in the buffet ...

The Apex first caught our attention because it was relatively new and we liked the itinerary. The reviews also affirmed our booking, so we felt good about the decision. We set sail with 2,700 passengers, which is about 200 less than capacity. It felt like a full ship, but never crowded. Interestingly, there were only 27 children under the age of 18 on board. That speaks to the average age ...

“Chic” ship.

Wanted to check out Celebrity (1st time with them) and had the opportunity to cruise on their newest ship - Apex. Ship has a very chic, unique layout, with smaller spaces for shows, entertainment, events. Ship is beautiful, but you still get the same average service, food, entertainment, excursions, etc. that you get on most cruise ships. Downside of Apex is the smaller spaces, i.e. small ...

we stayed in a suite mid ship on Deck 10. Embarkation was a breeze and on board the ship within 15 minutes. We did have a seat for a few minutes shoreside just to try some of the snacks available.... Cabin was well laid out and large enough for our clothes. Bathroom was big and had numerous shelves and storage for toiletries. The shower controls take a minute to figure out but was ...

My husband and I were looking forward to our Celebrity Apex cruise for months. It has been an extremely bitter-cold winter in Minneapolis, and we were looking forward to getting away. I couldn't wait to bring out summer clothes and sandals again! Everything on the Apex went beyond our expectations. The food was incredibly amazing, the staff were spot-on and always friendly, and the ...

The Retreat experience, when boarding the cruise you enter a separate entrance designated for Retreat guest. You are escorted to an elevator which takes you up to a lounge area that you are greeted by a host that goes over your information. You are released to go on board or you may relax for a while and enjoy food and drinks. We choose to go aboard. The ship was beautiful, very much like ...
