This cruise was so fun. The ship is very exquisite but also had areas to dress down. Would have like more game/activities but the ones they did have were fun. I especially liked the app which made choosing excursions easy as well as embarking/disembarking easy and helped us stay informed.

We had a most unusual sailing. Our three major ports were all cancelled due to a war. Most disappointed that we were unable to fulfill lifelong visits to the Holy Land and the pyramids. Celebrity did the right thing by keeping the ship, crew and passengers out of harms way. The redirected ports were disappointing — just there last year. The availability of shore excursions was insufficient for demand on board. While they did the best they could, no compensation was offered.

Celebrity Apex - First Time Cruiser
By: Ron C
Reviewed on: 10 Jan 2024
I was extremely impressed by the vessel (design, cleanliness, decor, holiday spirit) and the staff of the Celebrity Apex. Boarding was streamlined (zero to no wait at any point) and I can't say enough about the courteous staff. Every staff member we encountered during the entire cruise was positive and attentive (pool, porter, lounge areas, restaurants, bars - literally every location on the ship). We participated in an excursion at every port (Caymans, Honduras, Belize, Cozymel) and I appreciated how the Celebrity staff was present, welcoming, accommodating (providing water and wash cloths to passengers), and ensuring we were taken care of on the excursion. Enjoying this cruise with close friends and family, we had sense of safety for the children and when possible, enjoyed "parent-themed" activities like the cocktail bars, casino, and wonderful entertainment shows. For me, the Apex is now my measuring stick for planning future cruises.

Very, very fine. Retreat = best shipboard experience! ever. Was our 23rd cruise. We usually sail on ships w. 220 to 700, Apex was 3,0O0 passengers. Retreat creates a great 350 passenger experience. Fellow passengers were so so, but various members of the crew were great, particularly in the Retreat, but generally through out the ship. Butler Ari & cabin steward AJ. = best! Also servers in Retreat restaurant - Nino and Prince. Suite was very good, particularly the way the bathroom divides in two. Super storage.
Typical Caribbean windy weather & a cold shore excursion in Key West. Don’t try a tender excursion, ship is too big.
Getting on the ship as a Retreat passenger was wonderful. Went through a separate door, sat down in a lounge - Celebrity employee came to us and checked us in on an iPad. Then went to our suite an hour early at 12:15, where Ari talked to us about the ship for 15 minutes. Whenever, through out the cruise, when we asked for directions, we were escorted there!

We were on the Beyond for 11 days - nicest ship ever on. The flow and decor was exceptional. Had no issues on the Beyond.
On the Apex for 14 days - similar ship to the Beyond but that is where the comparisons stop.
Dining room meals on both very good but limited to selection. The buffet on the Apex was not so good - often the food was barely warm and in a few cases some of the meat being served was tough and almost impossible to eat.
We are elite with Celebrity but it will be our last cruise with them, not as pleased as with Princess, who we are also elite with and will return to.

We just finished a one week cruise in the Caribbean on the Celebrity Apex and it did not disappoint. The smaller ship had half the guests of Royal's Oasis class ships and a more upscale feel to it. I have to say that the staff on this ship were excellent! Very, very friendly and helpful. We received much more personal service than on our prior trips with Royal Caribbean and the food was better too. One of the nice things about Aquaclass, is you can dine in the Blu restaurant and if you don't like what's on the menu, they will give you the menu from the main diningrooms to choose from. They also pre-ordered my dinner for the following day to ensure my food allergies were addressed and there was no cross-contamination. Would definitely sail with them again.

Having seen videos ahead of our cruise, we knew what to expect, but we were still pleasantly surprised - the ship is gorgeous, and we loved the infinite veranda - can't understand why people get upset about them! Food was consistently good in all the restaurants, though Eden was clearly superior to the main dining rooms. The 4 separate main dining rooms was a great idea - never felt too crowded or saw long lines, and it was easy to switch to another dining room if one had a longer line. We'd definitely book this ship again.

We had a great time. This was our 6th cruise on Celebrity, the first on an Edge Class ship. Although as always we loved Luminae (though we preferred the smaller more intimate setting on the older ships), the new Retreat Lounge was a quantum improvement over the old Michael's Club Retreat lounge. The entertainment was the best ever, and the casino and Bacio coffee bar were wonderful resources we missed on our recent Viking ocean cruise. However, we must note that there is NO LIBRARY on the Edge Class ships, which is a terrible deficiency. Also, the art and background music is inferior to what the Viking Venus offers. Perhaps the raucous and pop music and schlock, gimmicky art work on Celebrity appeals to a younger clientele, it jarred our senior sensibilities and detracted from the overall Celebrity experience we otherwise enjoy. Also, the quality and variety of the food have declined in the Ocean View Cafe.

Overall good experience. Only draw back was the beverage package and on board drinks experience. We upgrade to the premium package. Which we expect to get premium drinks. Celebrity has done a poor job selecting wines for their guests. Very average at best. The only place we received the wines we ordered was at dinner. The rest of the time it was bait and switch. We order champagne and get poorer Cremant or Prosecco. I order a Chardonnay and watch them pour something else into my glass. Then only when I confront the staff do I get what I ordered. Again, I am paying extra for a better selection. So at least deliver on that.

Iceland/Scotland on Celebrity Apex

I'm a big fan of the Edge-class ships on Celebrity. The food and service on the ship was top notch as always. The cabins are comfortable. For the first time on a Celebrity cruise, I had to change cabins - the heavy seas caused some unusual and very loud noises emanating from the ceiling during our passage to Iceland, which made it difficult to sleep. Although the ship was sold out in the non-suite categories, making it a challenge for relocation, a few passengers exited in Reykjavik allowing for a cabin move to a new balcony cabin - which was an upgrade for me from a solo balcony to a regular balcony, where I slept like a baby the rest of the cruise! No charge and the staff was great in resolving this issue. I'm a huge fan of Celebrity and this class of ships and will sail on them again!

It was a beautiful ship with lots to do and a great staff, but too many add-ons. Felt like they were constantly penny-pinching. If you take this cruise line, just get the most expensive package, if not, you will be paying additional charge for just about everything. Additionally, for what you pay, the cabin was very small and cramped, no where to hang your clothes. Celebrity, since the closet is so small, and no iron in the room, can you have laundry hung on hangers instead of folding? Dress pants, Shirts & dresses, came back folded and couldn't be worn because creased and wrinkled.

This was our first time on the Apex, and it is exquisitely decorated. We dined in Blu every evening, and the meals were delicious. However, the Ocean Cafe's food was also excellent, and there was a fantastic variety for lunch when we ate there. I also liked going to the cafe later in the evening when they had small sandwiches, fruit, cheese, crackers, and miniature desserts.
The members of the Celebrity staff were all very helpful and polite. Our room attendant was very efficient, and the wait staff in Blu were at our table before we even thought about what we might want or need next.
I'm a massive fan of ship entertainment, but I can be somewhat critical. Celebrity definitely has the best entertainment of any cruise line we've sailed on.

Reviewed on: 04 Aug 2025
The Apex was such an amazing ship. Large enough to have all the amenities, yet the Retreat experience was second to none. They took such great care of us and truly cared that we have a fabulous time. Customer service is rare these days, but we felt we could return "home" to the Apex after our days in the various ports, and it was such a treat too!

Too much time at sea
By: Disappointing Mediterranean trip
Reviewed on: 29 Aug 2025
Great ship and the meals were surprisingly better than the other celebrity ships we’ve sailed on previously.
Nice amenities but surprisingly not any significant differences in this new ship versus the older ships we’ve been on.
Really poor job by celebrity at the port of Athens in handling boarding process and procedures. More of a free for all. Communication was very poor.
Also, we skipped Mikonos because of high winds but no additional options were offered other than a day at sea.
Super disappointed in Celebrity for how they handled both the boarding process and the port issue. Couldn’t we have come back another day or had another option added ?? Maybe not, but just cruising around at sea and no make up offered either in a cruise credit or future cruise is definitely disappointing.

Norway Cruise on Celebrity Apex

This was our 8th cruise on a Celebrity ship and the standards on the Apex were up to Celebrity's usual high standards. Embarkation was as smooth as ever; we arrived at our boarding time and walked straight up to the embarkation staff without waiting. We then proceeded directly onto the ship and settled in for the cruise. Staff on board were all willing to address any of our requests and were always available when needed. The ship was well maintained and was continually being cleaned. We will definitely be continuing to sail with Celebrity.

Loved jogging track and Eden garden
Restaurants good, food good-excellent. Easy to get into as there were only 600+ passengers. Will be a problem with a full ship.
crew very attentive
Loved the classic drinks package
Great covid testing organization. (a hard time with TrustOne website but they gave us a print-out for flying home).
Loved that everyone was vaccinated
Washing station up on the oceanside café. Very convenient.
Since there were so few people, swimming pools easy to use, not many people there.
two shows I saw were really good.
I liked how they used the magic carpet on the ship's side for tendering.
Cons
The infinity edge cabin. Not a veranda. It’s just an elongated room with an open-able window. Disliked it a lot. Will probably try and avoid those cabins in future.
Not enough electrical outlets (box around them made them hard to use). should be on both sides of the bed.
This ship isn't really for families. Similar to Viking ocean ships.

Although we were scheduled to sale the Apex on her Transatlantic crossing in 2020 and had originally rebooked for 2021, sometimes the " best laid plans of mice and men go astray" (with all respect to Robert Burns) and we did not go on the crossing. Instead we did this "test cruise" for a quick three days. Now granted, we had only 800 passengers on the ship, but I've never seen this kind of service on a large cruise ship. The staff was wonderful and so attentive and the food, even in the "main" dining rooms was the best I've ever had on a Celebrity ship. The entertainment was equally good, and I enjoyed the more intimate "Club" as well. I only wish we could have stayed longer, but there will be a next time.

My wife and I recently took a trip on celebrity Apex. We found it to be somewhat sterile and less conducive to mixing with other passengers. Celebrity seems to have eliminated get-togethers for the Captain’s Club but had published meetings for LGBTQ+ and AA members. Also, they seemed to eliminate religious services which many people enjoyed. There is no doubt that the ship is beautiful but my feeling is the beauty should not overshadow the camaraderie that sailing brings with it. My wife and I will be frequenting Solstice class vessels which for our age group seems much more inviting.

I loved the ship, but was disappointed with a few things: 1) ran out of lactose free milk, Diet Coke, Canadian Club and even Crown Royal. 2) the protein bars they used to have at the Aqua café, they no longer make. I used to get 1 or 2 daily. Not having them was a big let down. 3) I was expecting less noise in the smaller main dining rooms as less people were in each room, but it was just as noisy as the big main dining room on the other ships. 4) I didn’t take in too much of the entertainment as I found the music was too loud and overpowered the singers. 5) I enjoyed having a variety of some difference of the food options in the different main dining rooms. I very much enjoyed the infinite balcony, but I could see it being a problem if one was an early riser but the other wanted to sleep in. I would have preferred the window separating the balcony to have curtains.

The ship is wonderful. Crew wonderful. Food very good. Entertainment, for the most part, outstanding. Love the Infinite Balcony. New bathroom very nice. Bleu dining room disappointing view, so no reason for us to upgrade to Acqua Class on the Apex.
The BIGGEST FAILURE was the free Wi-Fi! Caused me constant stress, even trying to use my free Elite minutes! The staff didn’t seem to know how bad it was or really how to fix it. It only got worse. Even those who paid to upgrade said it was terrible. I couldn’t get Comcast email ever…no problem the minute we got off the ship and found free Wi-Fi in town. It was the worst thing about the cruise. I would have preferred not to have anything than to be disappointed day after day. Celebrity tech needs to learn UPOD (under promise and over deliver) rather than OPUD (over promise and under deliver). I was looking for messages about my cruise immediately following this one.

We did happily upgrade our drink package from the classic to the unlimited the very first day. We didn't regret that choice whatsoever, we definitely got our money's worth on drinks.
One of my favorite things that we did was the tour of the ship. We got to see a lot of behind the scenes action and meet some of the incredibly kind people who work there. The staff comes from all over the world and are all extremely friendly and interested in making your trip perfect.

The Apex is a beautiful ship but I was expecting the experience I had on the Edge a year prior and the Apex didn’t deliver. The sound was too loud in the theater, DJ, and house band. We ate at the specialty dining. Eden. The food and service was fantastic but we couldn’t converse with our dinner companions because of the guitarist performing in the Eden lounge. Our servers said this has been an ongoing complaint among diners at Eden. The food and service in the MDR wasn’t as good as my experience on the Edge. Menu choices were limited. I expensively purchased the premium beverage package but was served house wine at dinner instead of the wine printed on the menu. I would think when a premium beverage card is presented higher end wine and alcohol should automatically be served.
We stayed in an AFT stateroom and loved it. No complaints about our cabin steward or the stateroom.
Celebrity is always my cruise of choice.

We really enjoyed our cruise on the Apex. It is a beautiful ship. Entertainment was good, but unfortunately the timing was such that it was hard to get to all the shows and events. Need another silent Disco event! Food was terrific especially the French inspired pastries and baked goods. Wish there were more reasonable drink package options and that there wasn’t a charge for room service at dinner. Loved the excursions and our stateroom attendant.

Apex Review

Reviewed on: 15 Apr 2023
The Apex is a beautiful ship. The amenities are plentiful and Officers and crew members are professional and courteous. Our cabin steward was awesome and made sure our needs were met and was very informative. The entertainment was top notch and bartenders and servers were professional and courteous. My only issue is that the food in the 4 main dining rooms was good but not exceptional like the specialty dining rooms were ( Fine Cut and Eden) where you had to pay an up charge twice what it used to be. It used to be the quality of food was exceptional in all the main dining rooms, one main reason people cruise in the first place, in my opinion. I know all the cruise ships are doing this but I had hoped Celebrity would have been different. Overall, I had a great time with friends and loved the ship. Definitely recommend.

The room was wonderful. The entertainment was wonderful. The ship was wonderful. The Captain and staff were wonderful.
The food was disappointing. I’m sure they don’t serve the quality of food in the included restaurants so you’ll go to the specialty ones. Everything is now an added package, drinks, internet, etc. Bottled water without a drink package was $4.50. Some of The excursions were better then others. To take a tour of the ship they wanted $169 per person. We thought, since we booked everything through Celebrity, that our transfers to and from the airport was included, but NO, that was extra too.

Mixed Review

We have sailed with Celebrity many times and still love the ships and crew and you never have a reason to be hungry.
Usually the excursions are great; however the Iceland portion of our cruise left a lot to be desired. Out of four very expensive excursions only one had a knowledgeable and informative tour guide that could be understood. There was one that seemed to be knowledgeable but her accent was so thick only a few words were discernible . We actually were led the wrong way on two of the excursions and one guide got the times mixed up for where and when we were to be.
Excursions in Northern Ireland and England were good and up to Celebrity standards.
Still love Celebrity and chalk this up as an exception.

Large staterooms and nice public areas
By: Jan R
Reviewed on: 08 Jul 2023
I have traveled with Celebrity in the past and I was a bit disappointed in the limited options on the Apex buffet during dinner. I know they encourage the guests to eat in the other dining options but I enjoy buffets on the ships for the choices and quick service. Breakfast and lunch were great...lots of choices...however they did run out of oatmeal the 3rd day....which is a staple for breakfast!
The staterooms were large with the added glassed-in balcony which made the room seem larger. The mini-bar was stocked but it is a pay for use and other items they have on the counter are not complimentary. I would remove these items and ask for them as needed. I used the mini bar for champagne and creamer. The service was excellent.

11 day Canary Island cruise from Southampton
By: Judy
Reviewed on: 25 Oct 2025
The Celebrity Apex met all my expectations for a comfortable cruise with many places to enjoy entertainment, have many varied dining options, and most important, communicate with guests from onboarding to departure. Crew on board and in port made sure all transitions from excursions to any activity were like a well oiled machine.
The itinerary was one I had been looking forward to for several years. All excursions fulfilled my expectations to learn about each port and the tour guides were delightful, bringing each port to life historically and presently. The bus drivers on these very mountainous islands were each superior in their ability to maneuver a bus on steep hairpin turns. All buses were comfortable and clean.
We also enjoyed the ability to meet many guests from England on this cruise since it left from Southampton UK, making for a opportunity to enjoy another port and people too.

As the 1st Edge class ship, still beautiful
By: JessicaMc
Reviewed on: 24 Nov 2025
I invited two friends on their first cruise to sail on Celebrity.
They shared an Infinite Veranda and I booked a solo Infinite Veranda.
I thought Celebrity would be a sweet spot for introducing them to cruising. They were delighted with the food, entertainment and shore excursions. We booked the Eden, Steakhouse and Le Petit Chef.
I chose Apex because we live in Georgia and it is a four hour drive to Port Canaveral. I wondered since the Apex was the first of the Edge class ships, if it would show signs of wear. It was in tip top condition, did not disappoint.
The Infinite Veranda was perfect for them because it gave them extra room and they ordered coffee and pastries delivered every morning. I booked a behind the scenes ship excursion for them so they could learn what it takes to care for so many passengers. I recommend that at least once for everyone.
My solo cabin was perfect for me. Queen size bed, ample storage.

My time was great, exactly what I was looking for. The only thing that I didn't like is after I came back from my excursion on the Grand Caymen Island there was only one bar open. With only 2 bartenders. I realize this has something to do with Grand Caymen policy but this needs to be updated. Celebrity or any other cruise line can not really expect that many people on board with just one bar. NOT SMART!!!

Beautiful Crew & Ship

Reviewed on: 03 Feb 2026
The cruise was tremendously expensive. Ship was clean, well staffed, and mostly the right size. The dining room staff was extraordinary. The shows were amazing. Buffet food all looks beautiful and abundant, but it is bland or tasteless. The ship either needs a bigger pool or a second outdoor pool. We disliked the excursions very high costs (both on and off ship) and due to weather, we missed one completely. It would be better to have a later departure off the islands so we did not feel rushed in our offshore experience. One excursion was listed as 6 hours, we expected would be the time we be there but it included travel time. This did not leave us enough time to complete the whole activities, which were not cheap. They noted a strict dress code for the main dining rooms, but that's not the case. Other than no pants or sandals for men, any outfit was acceptable. We have also done Royal Caribbean, which has more kid activities. We would choose Celebrity again with better expectations.
