Celebrity Apex Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Ship is beautiful. Great entertainment, and shows.

Excellent vacation, skip the specialty restaurants, not worth the extra money

Had a Great Time as always. Less kids running around the ship. Very pleasant experience

This is the first cruise where we were unhappy with meals in the Luminae. While the service was outstanding, the food left much to be desired. Lamb chops were inedible; short ribs were mostly large pieces of fat. breakfast and lunch menus didn't change and wasn't a great selection. had a fabulous lunch in the Cosmopolitan - should have eaten more meals there.

Overall we really enjoyed this cruise. The Celebrity Apex was beautiful, clean, and had terrific staff members. Good food, drinks, entertainment and onboard activities. Our ports of call were wonderful to experience. I’d definitely recommend this cruise!

Absolutely a wonderful cruise!!! Would highly recommend any of the Celebrity ships & staff! Beautiful ports of call!

We cruised with our family (11 people - 5 rooms in Concierge Class). The Apex is a beautiful ship, we just had the wrong rooms.

Overall, a great cruise. The staff and crew on the Apex are outstanding. They are always friendly and willing to go out of their way to make your cruise enjoyable.

As a long time 10 years plus cruiser, we did enjoy the boat and the shows but it's not our first choice for bang for your buck. We have cruised with Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, Carnival and Princess. I must admit that your dollars is better used with Norwegian and Royal Caribbean, Norwegian being honestly the best value for your dollar, their all inclusive packages include pretty much everything on the boat, and even the specialty restaurants (which 2 or 3 nights are included) are affordable if you don't get a package. Norwegian does not nickel and dime you for alcohol or food, even the options for snacks are much better and daytime entertainment was found to be better. The boats from Norwegian might not be as luxurious but this is a small difference as Norwegian boats, especially the newer ones are much more fun and still luxurious enough for the average person. Overall Celebrity cruises is good for those who just want to relax, chill and do nothing but for those who want a little more fun and not be nickel and dimed, I do prefer other companies like Norwegian or Royal Caribbean.

The Apex is stunning, especially the Retreat areas. The art alone is a reason to book. Luminae food was delicious, as always. Service was impeccable. Downside: all port excursions were canceled on this journey without notice until the last minute and without compensation. These excursions were the reason for booking this trip. As the ship had several very large parties aboard (one had 1500 members and one other 500), all common areas were far overcrowded, loud and without seating. Chair hogs were out in force. I was informed that cabins were overbooked and many had 4 occupants. Buffet requires a complete overhaul as the food was of low quality and for the most part, inedible. Celebrity truly needs to stop their over-profiting and return to the quality cruise line they were until last year.

The Apex is a lovely ship with tons to do. This Edge class a little bigger than their other ships but was an excellent ship

This was a very nice cruise. We had a great time. There are some differences between Celebrity and Royal Caribbean, but if you know what type of vacation you are looking for, you cannot go wrong with Celebrity or Royal.

This was a nice Christmas Cruise. There was something for everyone. It was family friendly and that was good I saw families of three generations enjoying themselves and that was good.

Unfortunately all the information you get upfront is not everything you need to know. We will take another cruise in June, 2024 but have decided what we will do differently next time.

Celebrity did not disappoint with this ship! It is absolutely beautiful! We had some very rough waters on Day 1, but all the remaining days were great! The captain took an alternate route back to the US to avoid the storms & waves, and it made the final all day at sea perfect!

The Apex is a nice ship.. nothing exciting or special. Overall, the staff needs better training in accommodating basic needs. Music throughout the ship ( even the pool area) can be improved.

Great ship, friendly staff overall. Only wish…a bit more activities for individuals who are physically active.

Celebrity apex had the best of everything. Food, service, staff, cleanliness and entertainment..

This is a 4th time when we take Celebrity line, but at this time not a good experience! Ship crew has been so horrible to deal with and after my husband and I both talking with them I don't feel like they care at all and need to express my disappointment. The service , just wasn't at the standard that we were expecting because of the only other experience we had on Solstice, Equinox, Reflection was unbelievable. The crew is very rude , no hi no by. Guest relation officer June - horrible, she need to take etiquette training. French restaurant - be careful , check the menu 2 days before you coming and spent money for la corte restaurant. However, steak restaurant was ok. At the last night on a ship we paid our outstanding bill and received a receipt, but when we came home I received another bill for the mini bar embarkation was 7:30 am. I physically can not drink a 1 litter of water and eat 2 pack of chips.

If you don't get a suite or above, and if you don't have the dining/drink package, you don't get to experience some of the extras. Purchasing items onboard are very expensive. If you seriously want to enjoy your cruise, save enough money so you can freely purchase and enjoy yourself! This was my first experience on Celebrity, and I wasn't impressed. A lot of things were not explained clearly, and we weren't able to enjoy the full benefits of this cruise. We will go back to our favored cruise line.
