"Things we did not liked on this cruise:
- Long lines to get an elevator, at Guest Services, at the shows, and at the towel stations
- Having to check-out and check-in towels at the pool
- We purchased a soda package, but many times during the cruise, the self-serve machines did not work
- Lack of seating in the Windjammer
- The limited number of times that the Aqua, Ice, and Production shows were offered.While waiting in the terminal, I was able to access the ship’s internet and use the Royal Caribbean App to reserve our entertainment times...."Read More

1-10 of 49 Port Canaveral (Orlando) Royal Caribbean Harmony of the Seas Cruise Reviews
This was a family vacation that included my wife and myself, our son, and our daughter and her husband and our 2 grandchildren ages 2 and 6 months.
My wife and I have cruised many times with both Royal and Princess so I consider us seasoned cruisers.
This was our first cruise on a "mega" ship and we have been on both cruise lines when past ships were then categorized as being the biggest and ...
We have always sailed with Carnival in the past and decided to change things up this time around. I picked Harmony because of the large variety of activities onboard for my kids. Lots that we loved, but there’s still room for improvement.
Pools - enjoyed the layout of the pool deck with 3 pools and the splash pad area arranged in a big square. They were all easy to access and had nice variety ...
Completed this overall good Caribbean cruise less than a week ago from Ft. Lauderdale. First thing we were concerned about as knowledgeable previous RCL cruisers was the new 2023 food menus and procedures. Chose the early dining seating which was supposed to be @ 5:15, but they moved it to 5:00, last minute. Although many people didn't show up until 5:30 with no noticeable problem. We would have ...
HARMONY OF THE SEAS - GOOD, NOT GREAT!
Our trip began in Tallahassee on October 29th as we drove to Orlando for a 7-day Eastern Caribbean cruise. We stopped in Gainesville and enjoyed a great breakfast at the Metro Dinner on Archer Road. We stayed at the Hampton Inn ($170/night) in Orlando near the airport (a 45-minute drive to the port). On Sunday, October 30th, we left the hotel at 9:00 am ...
I chose this cruise because my close friend wanted to sail on an Oasis class ship. I have sailed on other Oasis class ships prior to this one. The ship is full of things to do and see. However, it can be very crowded at the "My Time" dinner hours. We've waited on long lines to enter the dining room for dinner. The dining room supervisors try to get everyone into the dining rooms from the ...
Cannot comment on the Eastern Caribbean itinerary as this 7-Night Eastern Caribbean cruise ended up going to Cozumel and Costa Maya due to the hurricane and subsequent last-minute itinerary change the week of. Even with that, outside of the confusion surrounding excursions and making reservations the first 2 days of the voyage (reservation system was down and excursions were slowly being added), ...
The ship was beautiful, full of great entertainment and fun things to do! The shows were spectacular and the comedy had us reeling with laughter! Getting on and off the ship was fast and flawless. Dinners were perfectly delicious and the wait staff was really great!
We would have loved seeing the workers cleaning handrails and common areas like they did during the Norovirus days. Glasses ...
This is my second time on Harmony of the Seas, but first cruise since COVID. We were traveling with a group celebrating my daughter's 16th birthday. Our group of six people were between 16 and 65 and most had cruised at least once prior to this sailing. While we enjoyed our time on Harmony we did notice there were some things that just made this experience different.
PROS:
We had a quick ...
This was our first voyage on an Oasis class ship. Overall, we had a great time. The ship can be overwhelming but there was a lot to choose from. The first thing I would recommend is to get on early, find a place to camp out and get on the app and make your event reservations for events during the cruise. The staff was outstanding during the entire cruise, I did feel bad for them having to ...
Harmony itself was great but you can tell they are still struggling to get on their feet post Covid.
The good: We had a great cabin attendant. As usual my family of four (two adults and two teenagers) put him through the ringer with keeping up and he didn't disappoint. Cabin was perfect the entire time. This service is what we've come to love about RCCL. The Windjammer is good for grab ...
