Rhapsody of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

The ship, Rapsody of the Seas, was elegant yet comfortable. It never seemed too crowded. We brought two of our children for thier first cruise. They loved it and were in awe of so many of the areas of the ship as well as the staff. This made our time with them even more meaningful.

I was living out my fantasy of finally traveling on a cruise ship! It was really magnificent. The staff really went out of their way in all areas to be helpful. The food was wonderful in the dining room as well as in the Windjammer Cafe. I felt like this was such a restful time. We participated in some of the activities offered on board. the massages were wonderful and really helped reenergize. I would recommend this cruise to anyone!

We absolutely loved Rhapsody and the crew. The Israeli passengers were the worst I have ever experienced in my life. Rude, aggressive and very arrogant towards the crew and other passengers. Never, ever again

Cruise was fine, staff were very good. Haifa was awful.

Overall, a fantastic cruise on a quaint and charming ship!

Very little to do during the day the entertainment through the day was like being at Butlins 30 years ago ie sexy mail doing belly flops in the pool come on with a bit old for this they need to have a good shake up and think of new things to do the DJ played music around the pool did not look at the age group and was playing heavy rave music what a joke

Daytime entertainment was something from Butlins during 70s and 80s ie doing belly flops in the pool on board sexiest man what a load of rubbish your entertainment staff needs a good overall

Not very pleased with this ship. Not much entertainment and food was lacking

This was a nice time away but disappointing experience. We prefer the smaller ships and were disappointed that Royal Caribbean would not take pride in all vessels and keep them all looking and feeling great.

Besides the other mentioned issues, we had a disruptive issue at poolside in the solarium that involved some cruiser complaining about crew members working. That cruiser, then verbally attacked another cruiser. At a gathering for members at the concierge club, I witnessed a cruiser take beverages from a bar cart left unattended. I informed a staff member, and he appeared to not have a care about the issue. There was a altercation in the centrum during the tendering fiasco in Cozumel. WOW, Just, WOW!

Loved the experience. Definitely do the MyTime dining for a regular free dinner experience.

7 days went by very quickly. An older ship that was well maintained. Friendly staff.

Will just add that we will not use RCCL again until they update their smoking policy. We do not care for ships that smokers ruin it for others. We have been very happy with Princess and think we will remain with them until RCCL comes into the 21st century.

So to re-cap my experience on this ship, I would say that if you want a laid-back cruise experience with few to no kids and a very serious group of fellow cruisers (don't expect friendly and outgoing smiley happy 70+-year-old seniors/people), this is the ship for you. Great service and fewer people equals a better cruising experience to me, which Rhapsody once again delivered for my third sailing on her. Go with a group of people so you have fun. The seniors all looked grumpy and annoyed with any laughter or fun that we had, especially in Chop's Grill. Whatever though!! We had our own fun!

Enjoyed that this wasn’t a party cruise or floating amusement park. Very laid back ship, perfect for relaxation. Food is a highlight here. Beds suck, so either book a massage or get one in port. I’d definitely choose this ship again.

This was the worse cruise we have ever taken out of all of our cruises. Photo booths were even set up in horrible areas and we were unable to get photos that we normally do. This one was supposed to be be extra special as we were celebrating our 15th anniversary.

Embarking was fast, food in the MDR was great. Chops never disappoints. Rough seas the last two days, but still had fun.

Awesome cruise. Did NOT like all the smoke in the Casino.

Had an earthquake in Jamaica while we were out there so kind of put a damper on our Roatan excursion but overall we had fun

Nice cruise; food was the highlight. Note that if you buy the high speed internet package, it is not very "high" speed and drops a lot. Also, the TV programming is not very good. No new movies or good TV shows.
