We Booked a Junior Suite… and Got THIS! | Rhapsody of the Seas Cabin 8550
We booked a guaranteed Junior Suite on Royal Caribbean's Rhapsody of the Seas — and were unexpectedly assigned accessible Junior Suite 8550. This cabin is HUGE, with an incredible balcony, tons of living space and accessibility features we haven't seen in any cruise cabin we've stayed in before. In this complete Rhapsody of the Seas cabin tour, Crystal takes you through accessible Junior Suite 8550 on Deck 8, including the extra-wide entrance, spacious bedroom and living area, storage, vanity, outlets, accessible bathroom, roll-in shower, shower bench and the enormous balcony. Because Crystal's dad has mobility and accessibility needs, we also look at the room from that perspective — including features that could make cruising easier, along with a couple of things that surprised us. And there's another reason this cabin is special for us: this is the first cruise of our retirement adventure! We're spending the next six months cruising and traveling to find out what it's really like to make travel a much bigger part of retirement. In this cabin tour: • Accessible Junior Suite 8550 • Wider entrance and open floor space • Royal King bed and bedside storage • Desk, outlets and espresso machine • Full sitting/living area • Accessible bathroom and roll-in shower • Shower bench and grab bars • Huge five-panel balcony • Storage for an extended cruise • Our thoughts on the cabin's accessibility features Have you stayed in an accessible cabin on Royal Caribbean — or on Rhapsody of the Seas? We'd love to hear about your experience in the comments.
