Rhapsody of the Seas |
Ship Rating:
The multilevel Centrum is the hub of this ship. It's an airy, light-filled atrium with gliding glass elevators, palm trees, panoramic windows, gleaming brass, and chairs and low tables placed in cozy groupings. Most passengers gather here for a pre-dinner cocktail as live music plays in the background. Other popular spots include the convivial Schooner Bar, the elegant Champagne Bar and the Solarium, a serene, glass-enclosed pool area with a retractable ceiling. The Viking Crown Lounge is a Royal Caribbean signature; floating 11 decks above the ocean, it's an observation point by day and a pulsating dance club at night. There's also a casino and show lounge. Go for a seaside jog on the top deck, spend a few pampering hours at the spa or work out with a view at the ShipShape Fitness Center. The Windjammer Café is a casual alternative to the formal, two-level Edelweiss Dining Room.

MS Rhapsody of the Seas is a Vision Class cruise ship for Royal Caribbean International. Onboard amenities include a full-service spa, two swimming pools, six bars, a pizzeria, and a Ben and Jerry's ice-cream parlour.
After 6 years of sailing from Galveston, Texas, Rhapsody repositioned on a world trip in the fall of 2007, traveling through the South Pacific to Australia where she remained for two months, before moving to Asia, operating cruises from Singapore, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Busan in South Korea. For the summer of 2008, Rhapsody operated out of Seattle, Washington, sailing to Alaska before repositioning back to Sydney, Australia for the winter of 2008/2009. After returning to Seattle in the spring of 2009, Royal Caribbean has announced that the Rhapsody is to repeat her Australia/Alaska seasons at least through April 2012. Prior to commencing her 2012 US summer tour, the ship will be receiving a US$16 million dry dock refit in April, with attention focussed on the pool deck and addition of new restaurants.
