LOCAL favourite, Rhapsody of the Seas,
entered the Sembawang Shipyard in Singapore
last week, for the commencement of her
multi-million dollar revitalisation.
Rhapsody, which has spent five consecutive
seasons in Australia, is now in for an extensive
four week makeover, after Royal Caribbean
decided to extend its initial revitalisation
program from two-weeks to a month.
As part of the US$54m works, Rhapsody will
receive upgraded decor and furnishings, five
new dining venues (Chops Grille steakhouse,
Italian Giovanni’s Table, Japanese restaurant
Izumi, Park Café deli-style eatery and the
exclusive private dining Chef’s Table venue).
Rhapsody’s cabins will also be fully made
over, whilst the vessel’s outdoor pool area will
be fitted out with a large outdoor movie
screen, and her atrium will be transformed
into a new venue with nightly entertainment
and aerial spectacles.
The ship’s Champagne Bar will become the
1960’s inspired R Bar, whilst families will
appreciate the new Royal Babies & Tots
Nursery for children aged 6 months to 3yrs.
