The biggest ship at the time was the main reason for choosing the Harmony. The quality of the food has decreased in the dinning rooms and the quality of the room service has decreased as well form other cruises that I have taken. Some shows are just great and others are just bad. The ship is a hot ship in the summer specially in the cabins. Some people carry their own electric fans for the ...

We had 3 generations on this cruise, so chose Harmony for the variety of activities. We all loved our individual experiences. We had a genie who took care of everything and anything for us. He exceeded our expectations and then some. We had a 2 bedroom suite for the family. It was nicely appointed. We especially liked the large deck. We had room service deliver every morning which we ate ...

I was looking for a Family Cruise with a lot of Onboarding Options... when I saw the Harmony of the Seas in the Royal Caribbean Web Site, I didn't doubt to choose this Ship for our annual Vacations. I decided to take one Suite for my family of 4, and it was very confortable and with enough space for everything. After having more than 5 Cruises experience, without any doubt, this was was the Best ...

Disappointed that there weren’t more adult areas for solitude.

Chose this cruise in order for my husband and I to travel with a group of friends. Was under the false impression that Royal Caribbean would be better than Carnival, I did not find that to be true. I am OK with having children and teenagers aboard the ship, but I assumed Royal Caribbean would have areas for adults to have some solitude, I did not find that to be true. I would’ve liked to have ...

We had been wanting to go on a cruise for years and just never took the plunge until this year. Wow! I wish we had decided to go on one years ago. We were on the Harmony of the Seas and there were so many activities. It's true when people tell you it is a floating resort. There is as little or as much to do as you want. There were four of us, myself, my husband and our two kids (ages 19 and 17) ...

We take our daughter and her family or at least our grandchildren on a cruise every year. This year we took everyone on the Harmony of the Seas and they had a great time. Harmony is a great ship for any age group. There is so much to do on the ship you really don't have to leave it. Our grandson (16) spent his days on the flowrider. Our granddaughter spent her time in the pool, splash park, rock ...

Just finished our cruise and we had a great time. The ship is large and it took a good day or so to figure out where everything is. Here are a few helpful hints for those planning a trip. We had two rooms, a balcony and virtual balcony. The virtual balcony was a great option and you don’t feel like you are in an inside cabin. Plenty of closet space and storage. We were questioning what people wear ...

Ship: Last year was the Biggest in the world. Over 6000 passengers.

Lots of space so you do not fell crowded by numbers of passengers Cabin. Adequate space and bathroom size. Super ...

We were excited to cruise on this large kid/teen friendly ship and looked forward to the various activities however the lines for the activities were unbelievably long. Some examples: line for rockclimbing - 2 hours line for ziplining - 2 hours line for Abyss - 1 hour Line for flowrider - 2.5 hours There were also long lines getting on and off the ships at Port with waits of ...
