Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on Harmony of the Seas

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), ...

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 ...

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 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 ...

Back to cruising! This was out second cruise this year, the Covid year. We were on the Carnival Elation in October.
We chose this cruise because the were giving away cruises and it fell on out 40th anniversary. We are Vaxed, and boosted, and the price was great.
We drive down to Port Canaveral when we leave from here. Much less stressful to get to the port. Parking structure was ...

We had sailed on the Symphony 2 years ago and loved everything, especially our evening at Wonderland. When we booked this cruise, I,of course, made another reservation to go to Wonderland. Our first experience was so much fun and delicious food. However, it was quite the opposite this time. There were 9 of us and they put us at 2 tables next to each other rather thane large table. Didn't feel ...

This was our first cruise since the pandemic and Royal Caribbean's Harmony of the Seas 3rd Caribbean cruise since it's transatlantic crossing. We got home this morning (Dec 12) and I wanted to get this review out since there aren't many reviews of this ship since it newly arrived to the U.S. and cruisers may find this info useful.
Pre-Cruise requirements: You will need a PCR/antigen test and ...

Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Harmony of the Seas

We booked this transatlantic cruise in the depths of the pandemic to have something to look forward to - we never imagined that we'd still be wondering right up until the last minute whether it would go or not. Along with being our very first time on an Oasis class ship, our experience was certainly different due to the very small number of pax on board: approximately 1300 on a ship designed to ...

I booked this cruise mid-pandemic on a whim and got a great deal. As a Brit, it really came down to the wire as to whether we would be allowed onboard due to Italy not allowing UK residents to enter, luckily the rules changed on 1st September so we could finally start to get excited about our first cruise in 2 years!
Some of the pre-cruise communications were confusing but it’s a constantly ...
