WOW! Harmony of the Seas is AMAZING. After cruising on RCL, NCL, MSC & Thomson over the last 10 years, this cruise was the best we have ever experienced.
Check in from the Airport to Port was very fast, we were on board and enjoying the ship within an hour off arrival in Barcelona. We would recommend doing the online check in so that you can save time at port (no queuing!) and be on board in record time.
We arrived in the morning which meant our room wasn't ready till 1pm, which we were prepared for. Advice – bring a change of clothes / swim gear with sun screen so you can enjoy what’s available on board. Relax at the pool, have some food, a drink and a wander around to familiarize yourself with the ship until your room is ready. You might be waiting a while for your suit case too, ours didn't arrive at our room till 5pm.
Excellent location, close to lifts and stairs, quiet, beautifully decorated and plenty of space with a nice view over central park. Kept spotlessly clean by our room attendant.
