Overall we really liked the ship. Some nice improvements were the showers, as a plus sized woman, it was nice to have a shower that was easier to maneuver inside, the addition of the shaver bar was nice as well . We felt the room had more usable space without the coffee table. On previous ships we bumped into the coffee table often and only used it for room service deliveries, on harmony we used the ample sized desk for room service trays and appreciated the extra space provided without the coffee table.

My husband and I rode the three slides, we liked them all but on the "champagne flute " slide, which we called the toilet bowl, I didn't "flush" successfully, and needed to scoot over to the flush exit! I also managed to get two nice bruises on my legs from hitting something (remember plus sized woman!). But I was not really hurt, just bruised. My husband had more issue with the abyss , as the glass floor on the entry platform freaked him out. He also had difficulty entering the abyss slide and did not center himself correctly on the mat, the staff member told him to standup and re center himself, which he could not accomplish due to the slippery surface and ended up sliding all the way down with one arm over his head and only one hand holding the mat.

We both liked the boot and bonnet bar, entertainer Toby-Joe Reilly was wonderful as was Johanna, bartender, it was a nice place to spend time with friends. As a new ship, with a long time without stock replenishments for the transatlantic sailing, they ran out of a few supplies. No diet soda in the coke machines, the bars ran out of my husbands favorite rum ( oakheart) and no diet sofas in cans except Sprite Zero, since we had purchased the ultimate drink package it was dissapointing to not be able to get our favorite drinks.

happy about the great shower and glad for more usable space without a coffee table, I also felt it was nice that the fan was always on in the bathroom and since I hand wash my underwear in the sink, they dried quickly in the shower. Note: our cabin had a lot on nighttime noise as it was under the pool deck
