Review summary

We were excited about taking this cruise. We have cruised on almost all top-class lines, but never on Celebrity, however, a family couple convinced us to change our plans and take the Apex instead. It looked great on the website, but the reality was quite different. Despite the fact that the cruise is very modern and beautiful, when you are on board for eight days without proper entertainment and a wide selection of music places, it is a dull ship to enjoy with friends and have quality time together. It was crowded at the pools, and in the Solarium half the chairs were empty, with towels saved, resulting that we had to wait for one that was available for hours. The solarium was supposed to be an adults-only area, but babies and kids were also part of the non-relax area. The EDEN area is one of the most beautiful sections of the ship. At night, however, their down kitchen smelled fishy because it needs a more powerful extractor to be installed urgently to prevent it.  The BEST part of the ship was the service provided by the people, all of whom were top representatives of the company.

Ship tip

We won't recommend this ship, actually already called two couples of close friends that were planning to take it and after we shared our experience they are changing plans to take another line for their next cruise. This ship need a lot of professional entretainment guidance. The cruise directos and the other lady are daily in a video that is depressing , they need urgently a producer for those presentations/
