Review summary

Very low key low energy relaxed vibe. Very reserved polite staff.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth

Ship experiences

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Very limited activities, a few trivia games. No karaoke, slot tournament, no pool games. Snooze cruise. A lot of upscale designer shops, without any customers. I did use the fitness center since there were not a lot of cruise activities. All very modern, state of the art machines, headphones and cold towels were provided. The aqua spa was beautiful with heated lounge chairs, a Himalayan salt room and a crystal relaxing room

The Theatre

5 out of 5

The theater stage in the round had a unique 180 degree electronic screen that could show fantastic themed backgrounds. The musical productions were outstanding with super talented singers, dancers and aerialists.

Solarium Pool

5 out of 5

Beautiful, very quiet and relaxing

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The lounges had a lot of guitarists that played relaxing cocktail dinner music. No one danced at any lounges, a very low key quiet crowd

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Polite and reserved, but not very friendly.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very clean and well maintained. The ocean view cafe had several hand washing sinks before you entered the buffet.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin had the infinite veranda window. The outer wall was a window that rolled down that provided open air. A button operated window shade and French doors kept the veranda separated from the rest of the cabin. The cabin lights and temperature was controlled by a touch screen panel, very convenient to use. There were convenient usb outlets on the desk and by the bedside tables.

Ports of call

Basseterre, St. Kitts

5 out of 5
A lot of shopping, very clean and easy to walk shopping areas.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth, an easy walkoff.

I agree... the staff is amazing. I was on that ship for news years cruise. The ship.. food.. staff... there is no better... Just got off another companies ship today.. Its not even worth comparing.. Apex is about quality.... others about getting u in and out fast as they can and move on. Enjoyed it so much. We have already booked another trip aboard the Apex
