Nice ship, but too crowded

Cruised with my husband and our 2 adult daughters. We picked this cruise based on the ports, because we've never been to Europe, so it seemed like a great way to get a taste of a few cities. We enjoyed all of the ports and our excursions, even though one was cancelled due to lack of participation and we had to select another. We selected traditional dining, but did try one of the restaurants ...

Beautiful high end floating resort but not a cruise ship

I will preface this review by stating that the ship is beautiful, the service was excellent, and the food onboard was probably the best I have ever seen on Royal Caribbean (We have cruised with RCL 10+ times). There were a lot of "wow" factors about the ship but there was one aspect of the ship that was a source of major disappointment for me - I'll start with that first and save the good stuff ...

Great destination cruise but too much money for what you get in return

Having cruised with Royal Caribbean on Navigator and Allure we couldn't wait to cruise the Med on Harmony to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. Let me say firstly, we had a great holiday and if you were a first time cruiser you would be blown away, however as a repeat cruiser I was left a bit disappointed. Pros - Great Ports and excursions. We booked two through RC La Speiza ...

We thought we would try a new big ship to see what it was like. We had just got off the Celebrity Reflection for a cruise around the Greek Islands and seeing we were in Europe we took the opportunity to try this new ship. Embarkation went smoothly and we were on board within 10 mins which was great. The ship is amazing and beautiful. We were lucky to get an upgrade to a balcony and the ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

This was our first cruise. We have two young teens and are an athletic family. My spouse and I were dying to go back to Italy and Spain but only had 10 days maximum and have one kid that does not like to travel. We did not use 70% of the amenities; for some reason my usual "fishes" were not interested in the pools or slides. Tthe entertainment did not appeal to us with the exception of the ...

That was our 4th time on Royal Caribbean ( all Mediterranean). This time service was bad, restaurants were packed jam not like other big cruises we took, staff somehow unfriendly & on board spending was way too high, much higher than other trips we took. They try to make money in each step you take on board. Room were better than expected but tooooo noisy. Entertainment on board was bad. Did not ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

First time cruise for a family of four with teenage children to celebrate a landmark birthday and decided to go for the biggest and the best !? Having spent four fantastic days pre cruise in Barcelona we had high hopes for Harmony of the Seas but the experience was mixed. The Ship There is no doubt this ship is an amazing feat of engineering bordering on the absurd in terms of scale. ...

We have sailed with Royal Caribbean many times before, and have loved all our previous cruises. We booked this trip mainly for the Western Mediterranean Cruise from Rome since we wanted to spend time in Rome afterward; when we found out that it was going to be on the Harmony and how huge the ship was, we were worried, as we hadn't been on a ship larger than the Explorer of the Seas-- however, we ...

The ship is grand but biggest is not always the best! It was just a little over crowded and the dining experience was one of my least favorite of all cruises to include other Royal Caribbean cruises. Service was slower than previous cruises and ordering a drink in the main dining hall just took unusally long. We ate in the main dining room 2 nights and then chose to eat buffet style in the ...
