My husband and I wanted to make diamond status, and we achieved that goal! Diamond plus is downloading .... Is Rhapsody of the Seas worth trying? The itinerary we cruised was great, but the ship is more seasoned. We cruised from San Juan to the ABC islands and St. Croix. The furnishings in the junior suite were outdated and well worn. The temperatures were inconsistent throughout the ship. My room was freezing cold. The promenade quickly becomes overcrowded. The Windjammer had no hand washing stations, and that almost took us out. Our cruising experience began during the pandemic, and each ship we have sailed on has had a hand washing station, so when we couldn't find the hand washing station, we contemplated not eating at the Windjammer. Was going on Rhapsody of the Seas worth it? For the itinerary, YES. Would Igo back on Rhapsody of the Seas? No, I would not, but we had already booked a sailing out of Tampa, and that is non-refundable, so we will go once more. Favorite area: Complimentary sauna and steam. Favorite memories: The staff interactions. #travelagent #travel #cruise #
