Rhapsody of the Seas Cruise Reviews - Reviews

The ship was good but small and didn’t have as many things to do as the larger ships. The outdoor pool was also super dirty and was not pleasant to swim in.

All n all, I had a great time. This was a dream trip for my Grandma to have the family together on a cruise. We all did are own thing but were able to stay connected. I thought recommend Royal to other and will probably do it again.

Just got off the Rhapsody of the Seas Holiday Cruise, it was Wonderful, the service , food and entertainment were excellent! I especially enjoyed the Lamanai Ruins shore excursion in Belize , the San Gervaiso Ruins and Beach excursion in Cozumel, and the Chachobben Ruins and Bacalar fort excursion in Costa Maya, Key West was crowded but enjoyable. we did the Hop on and off trolley with the Butterfly Gardens which was very nice for us first timers to Key West 🦋

Great Cruise, Shore Excursions, Food and Service . The Ship is smaller and older but very clean, well maintained and quaint 🛳

Very disappointed in the dining at Specialty Restaurant. Bought a special dinner for Christmas at Giovanni’s and it was pretty much terrible. So very disappointing to spend that kind of money for what we got. I love Veal and expected something special but the veal was crap made in the shape of a ball that was tough. The service was excellent. The whole experience just NOT what I would expect for an Italian fare restaurant. Don’t waste your money. Now we know why the restaurants are empty. BUT......Loving my Cruise at Christmas. The ship is lovely and staff could not be more friendly. My two nights in main DR have also been very good. The Diamond Lounge also excellent.

Our Christmas 2018 cruise on the rhapsody of the seas was just perfect. We enjoyed wonderful weather, calm seas and just a general good time aboard the rhapsody of the seas Our cabin was probably one of the small cabins I but it really was a convenient location for everything. Chops Grill and Giovanni’s and serve two excellent meals. It was really worth the up charge. Some of our meals in the main dining room or rather hit or miss. Christmas Dinner I enjoyed the turkey which was exceptional… A perfect holiday meal. We do enjoy the smaller ships and are not attracted to the larger ships with all the bells and whistle’s that attract families with children.

Transatlic Cruises are a big bang for the buck and this one was great. We enjoyed what we wanted on the ship and enjoyed the surroundings and local food in each port we visited. We had spectacularly good weather for the entire trip and even enjoyed a storm three days into the crossing. This cruise vacation proved once again that cruising is probably the best way to discover a few new places and make plans to come back and stay longer. Your cruise is what you decide it to be when you book it. Definitely plan ahead, make your reservations and keep your documents in order. You'll have a much better time and get much better service. Make it a point to get to know the people who are taking care of you on the ship so they can make it personal for you.

six days at sea and I was never bored. Very relaxing except in the Diamond lounge, where 900 of your newest friends were trying to get drinks at the same time LOL.

I do not cruise for beaches and parties, I go to relax and unwind. I like to sit and watch, people and the water around the ship. So a long stretch of days without ports is just what I want, and so this cruise is perfect for me.

Very enjoyable Transatlantic cruise on Rhapsody of the Seas. We knew she was an older ship when we booked the cruise and we found the ship to be well maintained, clean and well staffed. No, there aren't the amenities we had on Liberty or Oasis, but we specifically were after a very laid back vacation at our own pace. The nine days at sea were very relaxing. Service was great anywhere on the ship and each port gave us something we were after.

We absolutely loved the Rhapsody of the seas!! The crew was the best of all of the cruises we have been on. They were the friendliest people ever and they took excellent care of us. The ship was always clean and many people worked very hard to keep it clean. We had dinner in all of the restaurants and the main dining room. All of the food and service was excellent. Thank you to all that made our cruise so special!!

The RHAPSODY may be an older ship, but the way it is maintained and an excellent staff and crew make cruising on her a real joy and pleasure. The transatlantic in December 2018 from Barcelona to Tampa was fantastic.

Overall this was a relaxing cruise and I liked the Rhapsody a lot. This is my second transatlantic - last year I was on the Brilliance and we stopped in the Azores which was more enjoyable than the Canary Islands. I would do another but try to find one with different stops.

We are of the opinion that Celebrity cruises are superior to Royal Caribbean and this cruise (our 7th transatlantic, with one on RC) confirms that opinion. The smaller fitness center and buffet, cleanliness issues, WiFi problem (though it’s really hit or miss on any cruise), limited night snack offerings on RC make it clear that we will stick with Celebrity in the future.

Very enjoyable and met some great people. Ship great. Capatain quite informative. Waiter and service in dining room excellent

Good cruise. Our biggest problem with RCL is pricing and communication. Yes, cruise price was very affordable, but everything else is extremely over priced. RCL also has issues with communication. Bridge announcements can’t be heard in cabin, we emailed RCL with two boarding questions three days before the cruise and received an (unacceptable) answer to one of the questions three days into the cruise! That’s utterly unacceptable.

A good trip - Transatlantic's can be a little wearying with sea day after sea day, but this was a lovely trip.

Loved Barcelona and the Canary islands! My husband and I got bored on the TA sea days, though. Overall...satisfied ;)

Personnel on ship were outstanding, friendly best customer experience of all my 4 cruises!

We has a fantastic time on this cruise. The ship was clean. The staff was friendly. The food was delicious. The ports we visited were amazing.
