Worst cruise ever; Harmony of the Seas should be renamed Hazard on the Seas!

We were sold this as an inaugural cruise, it was not, in fact even the cruise director alluded to it as a test voyage or words to that effect, And it certainly was testing! areas closed down, not enough seating, at times it seemed like there were more contractors on board then passenger's, areas all around the ship still being worked on. Toilets on one deck had no fittings, no proper sanitary ...

this ship should be renamed the disaster of the seas, I booked what I thought was a maiden voyage but it was really a test run for a building site at sea.... I paid full price for my cabin which I have to say was nice but no flushing toilet for day had to use communal toilets.... the water to the wash hand basin did't work for 1 day either which was a pain... there was work men everywhere ...

Extremely disappointed with this cruise. My husband and I were excited to be going on this brand new ship on its first cruise - being regular cruisers with Royal Caribbean we expected their usual high quality and standards. The on boarding was managed very quickly and within 15 minutes we were on board. This was the only organised part of the cruise. We headed straight to the Windjammer for ...

Harmony of the Seas - RAW Chicken and Poor Health and Safety

Harmony of the Seas – 22-26/05/2016 I'm not able to attach here, but I have photographic evidence of raw chicken that was served in the Windjammer buffet on the Harmony of the Seas and video footage of the ongoing construction, which will be put on Twitter. The cruise was sold to us as the ship’s maiden/debut/inaugural voyage, however when it became apparent that the ship would not be ready, ...

You would not want to experience a cruise as bad as this one.

This was the first sailing of Harmony carrying fare paying passengers. The ship was like a building site and no regard was paid to passenger safety. I saw a missing glass panel missing from deck 16. Yes the panel that prevents you falling overboard ! It was not fitted till 24 hours AFTER we set sail. There where trailing wires and ladders all over the open decks, no caution signs of any kind. ...

We went on this cruise expecting to see a great ship and fantastic things to do. The embarkation was really good very easy and didn't take long at all within 30 min we were on the ship this was the best bit. We got onboard the ship and headed to the pool area as my son of 4 years wanted to swim. We walked pass the children splash area which was closed. We asked a member of staff why it was ...

Well where do I start. Check in at Southampton was fantastic, quickest ever. Once aboard we went to the Windjammer for a bite of lunch, well for a ship that holds over 6000 guests seemed much smaller than i thought, in fact it was a struggle to get a table. Food quality was not as good as on my last RCCL cruise. Afterwards had a wander on the open decks, seemed all the Jacuzzis were ...

Awful cruise! Dreadful staff and ship not finished. Since our return we've emailed RCCL twice to complain but still haven't received a reply. Ship was dirty and we had to change drinking glasses and cutlery several times because they weren't clean. Hand sanitiser was rarely available. Loved the shows on Anthem but the entertainment has definitely taken a step back on Harmony. Food was ...

Let me start by saying that I am a great Royal Caribbean fan but the recent trip on the Harmony of the Seas was a complete shambles. Let's start with the good stuff. The shows were spectacular and top drawer. The balcony cabin we had was a great layout, spacious and loads of storage. The staff in the Windjammer were also great, and attentive and the food was great also with loads of choice. That ...

Having cruised on sister company Celebrity twice before, was looking forward to this 4 night sailing. Disappointing doesn't sum it up. I can only concur with previous comments. Served cold food after queuing for 30 minutes for breakfast. Asked for it to be returned only to wait another 20 minutes for another cold offering of Eggs Benedict. Could not even make a cup of tea in stateroom. Shows ...
