Review summary

We looked forward to having dinner every night with our amazing servers. What a pleasure, and so entertaining!

You MUST go on the excursions and take adventure of the adventures that are offered on all the islands. Our family had the absolute best time participating in some of these offerings!

Although the night life and adult entertainment was very good, the ship needs to offer more downtime activities....board games, puzzles, fun classes that older kids and adults can participate in (cooking, painting, etc...). I saw A LOT of folks playing cards on board, MORE ping pong tables - one is NOT enough for over 2,000 people!!!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Main Dining Hall - food was excellent. Dishes were fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. Windjammer - hit or miss. While breakfast was mostly disappointing, we did enjoy some delicious lunches.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Good for the adults

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Night entertainment was great. Especially liked the Centrum activities - flag dance, 70's and 80's party, etc. Enjoyed the quick 7:30 shows the most!

Children's Programs

3 out of 5

Could have been more offered for the older kids....more games, puzzles, books, etc. And more movies! You really should offer at least 1 movie per day in the Broadway Theater for people who stay on board, or during sailing time! The theater's beautiful, use it more :-)

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Outstanding Service! Lyndon from Trinidad - couldn't have asked for a more concientious, detail oriented waiter. Milos from Montenegro - funny, entertaining, and very concerned about our orders. Maria from Phillipines - bent over backwards to make our dinners enjoyable, always smiling!

Ship Quality

Rhapsody is very clean and I liked the design layout.

Cabin / Stateroom

Our housekeeper Jinky was AWESOME. She couldn't clean our cabin enough and always left a cute towel animal in our room. She even left us a monkey hanging from the ceiling - very clever!!
