Review summary

I loved this cruise so much, I can hardly wait to book another Edge class ship cruise. Unfortunately I became completely spoiled sailing in the Retreat suite category and will probably only travel that way from now on assuming I can afford it. I have no doubt that I would still have an incredible time if I just booked a regular cabin but I truly enjoyed the little extra attention you get sailing in a suite.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We ate at several of the specialty restaurants and Luminea. We enjoyed the steakhouse and loved Eden. All the restaurants gave us amazing service. We also ate in one of the main dining rooms once just to give it a try and the food along with service was very good.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Deal or no Deal was fun. We loved the specialty talks. I thought the solarium was wonderful. I booked the thermal suite for the duration of of our cruise but found it to be just okay. I don't feel it was worth the extra cost.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Most of the shows were good but would not put them in the fantastic category. We really enjoyed the comedian, the magician and there was a solo singer that was really good. I'm not much for the big productions shows so they were just okay.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Celebrity by far has the friendliest staff of any cruise line that I have ever been on. I have not been on them all but definitely better then Carnival, Royal and NCL.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The Apex was stunning and spotless.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We were in a sky suite which was set up beautifully with the bed facing out towards the balcony. Waking up each morning to an incredible view was wonderful.

Ship tip

Bring every med you can think of to keep you comfortable if you happen to become sick.
