Rhapsody of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

What a fantastic break. We needed a reasonably priced holiday with as little fuss as possible and we got a 5-star cruise with a fun-loving crew, exceptional entertainment and great shipmates. If we had the money we would not have hesitated to stay on board and sail with the Rhapsody for the next 11-day cruise.

The Rhapsody of the Seas is an 11 year old beauty made in France with incredible workmanship...still looks brand new...warm and confortable...floating beautifully...

THE SHIP WAS FINE.

Both the cruise and the service were great. The staff were extremely polite and went out of their was to assist in any way possible. This was our first cruise and we had a great time. The room we stayed in was very small but comfortable. There was so much to see and do that we were only there to catch a few hours of sleep before going to the next adventure.

See above note.

Rhapsody of the Seas is an older, smaller ship that was very good for our first cruise. She is easy to figure out and navigate. Not so big that you get lost. For our taste, the food was great, the room nice, and the overall ship is elegant.

The ship was clean and very well maintained. This crew was friendlier than the other ships, and that's hard to believe as Royal Caribbean hires such great people.

The ship is very clean. The rooms were nice. This is our 5th cruise with Royal Caribbean. We did not like Canada at all, boring and the cost for the land trip is so over priced! Cheapest thing to do there and it was 85.00 a person! They need to lower the cost of Bingo, 31.00 dollars for 4 games is outrageous. Also, the captains meet for everyone was weak. In the past it was whatever you would like to drink now it is champagne and wine.

Everything was great, the food, the service, the ship.

We had 16 family members go on this cruise,we went on some of the excursions. They did not give us enough time at the Mendenhall glacier and it seems like we were "RUSHED" out of the salmon bake even though the salmon was delicious. The food in the Edelweiss dining was way overcooked and again I felt like were rushed through it. I ordered a salad at one meal and never received it. The family time we spent was wonderful and this was an excellent setting for this. My son in law was on crutches from a previuos injury and was never offered any assistance by the staff however.Overall everyone had a great time though.

My overall impression was great! I did, however, have a little episode of stepping in some fecies one night after the second formal dining evening. It was very discusting. I don't know the actual place it happened, only that it was on the 4th deck. But that didn't effect my overall impression of the ship. My husband and I will definately book again with Royal Carribean.

THE SHIP IS BEAUTIFUL. ENJOYED THE CAPTIAN SAYING "WAKIE WAKIE" EACH MORNING.

The ship was a perfect size to accommodate our needs. Not too large to get lost but not too small to be cramped. Daily activities were well planned however the tours offered require some fine tunning as time allocated was insufficient in most ports and unnecessary stops were made along the way. Overnight excursions listed as two day trips were in fact barely one full day. Hotels offered on the overnight excursions were excellent. It was an extremely aggressive trip in that there were a number of ports which perhaps could have been included on another trip or this trip could have been extended by at least two days. It was however, an wonderful experience and certainly provided us with destinations that we are likely to return to in the not too distant future. Viet Nam was a true experience and one not to be missed.

The ship was basically well maintained. Public areas were clean and neat. The general area had limited seating area.

The ship was not as clean as expected. They were performing construction and renovations during the cruise and sea days which obstructed path of travel. The ship did not cater to elderly and disabled travelers. The ship was older and seemed less stable and more rocky at sea than expected.

This was a wonderfull well needed vacation. The ship was lovely and clean. The staff was friendly and helpfull. The food was good never ending. The daily entainment was great, how ever the night club music was for an older croud (not all of the time, but most of the time). I think the ship need two night clubs one for an older croud, and one for 50 and under. Dispite the retro music my family and I had a plast, and we look forward to cruising with royal caribbean again for the third time.

We were not impressed with this ship. It was in poor shape and the crew was renovating it while we were sailing! Our shower was peeling and the curtain itself was moldy and created a strong smell in the bathroom. The beds were literally cots with mattresses on top!

Had a great time. Loved the Dance lessons. The Detox session was a lot like in infomercial - a little over the top. You can tell the captain takes great pride in his ship and his accessibility should be commended.

The ship was beautiful, i know next time to book a cruise with a larger room. There were 4 of us in one small room and at times it made it difficult to manuever.

it is a great ship, however compared to my last cruise which was with visions of the seas, this ship and the crew take the second place the entertainment and the food were good ....could be better
