Chose this cruise for the itinerary. Initially we were concerned about the small ship size but actually found we loved the more intimate setting. Other than embarkation day, this ship does not pressure you to buy drink or restaurant packages. Some ships seem to focus all their energy on upselling but this is not one of them. Also, unlike some of the large ships there were no areas that cost more to enjoy (like the lawn area on the oasis or allure). The pool deck was nice and I spent much time in the solarium pool. There always seemed to be enough deck chairs. We found that the quality of the MDR food was better than we have experienced on other ships recently. Prime rib was served twice on a seven night cruise. Hubby and son loved it! We enjoyed the big screen movies on the pool deck and also in the theatre mid day on at sea days. Cruise was mostly adults with a nice mix of 30's, 40's, 50's and up. Not much onboard shopping but we tend to avoid this anyway. Overall I would definitely sail the Rhapsody again.

Cabin Review

Panoramic Ocean View Stateroom

Cabin PV

Loved this cabin. Floor to ceiling window that was the width of the cabin. My adult son could sleep on the 7 ft long pullout without needing to pull it out. But when he did it could sleep 2 comfortably. Beds are firm but ok. Room felt very large.
