Retirement Cruise. Was interested in experiencing the Harmony of the Seas. As I am a solo traveler; I love the new single studio suites with ocean view. Please add more! No longer need to pay for the "single supplement" (dba ghost companion). Harmony is gigantic. We had over 6,400 quests on board with 900 children. It was a bit overwhelming at times, especially the first couple days and on cruise days. Harmony has 4,000 plus staff but they were struggling to keep up with the quantity of quests demands, especially on the Promenade. There is only one early morning café on the Promenade and the coffee line can get long at times. Starbucks is on the 8th deck, but costs additional and not included in the beverage packages. The Specialty restaurants (150, Chops Grill and Hibachi) were excellent, but ouch on the additional costs. I injured my arm on a shore excursion and the ship's doctor was great. Room steward was very tentative. Great retirement cruise.
Great for a solo traveler. The 5 foot portal window is all you need to see the ocean..
