“Overall, Discovery Princess represents Princess cruises at their absolute best, combining traditional cruise elegance with modern innovations that enhance every aspect of the experience.”

“Icon of the Seas represents the future of cruising, combining massive scale with intimate experiences, cuttingedge technology with classic hospitality, and endless entertainment options with peaceful retreat spaces.”

“In a cruise world that sometimes feels obsessed with going bigger and louder, the Celebrity Silhouette quietly reminds you that elegant and easygoing still wins.”

“If older cruise ships felt like floating hotels from a bygone era, Apex feels more like a floating boutique resort with attitude.”

“Celebrity Apex is a strong performer overall. Its biggest strengths are its modern design, its innovative staterooms, its excellent dining, and its ability to balance liveliness with quiet corners.”

“The spa is expensive and that staff tried to upsell various products during treatments.”

“One thing to note, and it is a common complaint, is that water is not free in the restaurants and there is no complimentary water in the cabin.”

“On the weaker side, customer service feedback for Costa as a brand has been mixed over the years, particularly around handling cancellations and refunds.”

“One traveler specifically noted that the ship felt overcrowded and raised hygiene concerns, particularly about hand sanitizer not being enforced before entering the buffet.”

“One fair critique worth mentioning is that some guests have noted the main dining room can feel warm at times.”
