Rhapsody of the Seas

Escape into a world of wild tropical beauty, sapphire seas, soft sunsets and friendliness. If you’re looking for a little slice of heaven this cruise will take you there.

Rhapsody of the Seas will unlock all the magic and mystery of Asia and the Pacific.


This striking all-white ship shares design features that make many of the Royal Caribbean International ships identifiable, including a Viking Crown Lounge and a terrific multi-level nightspot. There is plenty of open-air walking space and a wide range of interesting public rooms, lounges and bars. The interiors have been cleverly designed to avoid congestion into the main areas, including the large astrologically-themed casino.


There are 18 grades of accommodation, prices depending on grade, size and location. Decor os bright and cheerful and soft furnishings make this home away from home look like the inside of a modern Scandinavian hotel - with minimalist tones and splashes of colour. For the ultimate accommodation aboard this ship, choose the Royal Suite, which resembles a Palm Beach apartment, and comes complete with a white baby grand piano.


Whether you want to try new food, do something you've never done before or go somewhere you've never been, Rhapsody will make it all happen for you; letting you return to the comfort and luxury of your own stateroom each night.
