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

10+ Cruises • Age 80s
We began using rcl several years ago and left carnival due to their focus on youth and babies, which is understandable. Obviously, as over 70 years of age, we outgrew them. For several of the rcl cruises through the years it seemed to be a limited number of younger couples with children under 5 and babies.
This last cruise had more babies in strollers than any rcl cruise to date.
We ...

This ship is not for everybody. I do not recommend this cruise for people who don't like crowds (usually military, law enforcement, etc). Their were 5500 people on this ship, not including the help. There are two small pools that are always packed and people leave their towels on the chairs for hours. Even though a sign is posted, towels will be removed after 30 minutes, they never were. If ...

We chose this cruise because we wanted to go on the Harmony of the Seas. We have traveled to the Eastern Caribbean many times and enjoy the ports.
While on this cruise our friends celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. Royal Caribbean provided a bottle of champagne and chocolate covered strawberries for the occasion.
We are Diamond members of C & A and truly enjoy the nightly get ...

We had not been on Royal before and my sister wanted to try something other than NCL. We have read a lot of glowing reviews of Royal & Harmony so we decided to go for it. There were 11 of us ranging from 20 – 55.
The ship is gorgeous and I loved the neighborhoods. It is well maintained.
Perhaps we had too high expectations, but we weren’t impressed. Bar staff seemed to not care one bit. ...

This was my fourth Royal Cruise and one of my favorites. The size of the ship allowed for an easy flow of people and the only time I really experienced a crowd was when we embarked on the first day. It was also nice having a larger ship because that meant I hardly felt the motion of the ocean.
There were lots of opportunities to find things to do either on a sea day or port day. On sea days ...

We are seasoned cruisers and I decided to try one of the mega ships as a change. We thought there would be problems with so many people on board, but we were very surprised.
At now time, with only exception being the disembarkation, you never felt like 6000 people were on this ship. This is a fun ship, with a lot of selections for dinner, entertainment and fun. You must book your dining and ...

We decided to try a very large ship after being on the smaller to medium sized ships. The largest ship previously was the Liberty of the Seas.
We had some issues with our hotel (Days Inn) and taxi ride to the pier but were able to get on the ship very easily. Although the ship is very large, it was not very difficult to navigate except for Deck 6 which does not go across the ship at all. Thus ...

We did, as we have done before, a modified back to back cruise- New Years week on the Edge and the second week on The Harmony of the Seas. We had problems getting a cab from the Edge pier to the Harmony pier- we also had a bad cab driver who took us to the wrong place-I think he did it on purpose to avoid the crowds. Should have reported him but didn't take his number.
Since we have ...

The Harmony (Jan 2019) was in much better shape than the Allure (Jan 2018). I really did not see anything that made me say this is disgusting and needs to be replaced as I did all over the place on Allure last year. Now Allure may have gotten updates since then, but the Harmony was practically flawless for us. The main dining room food was good. The windjammer food was good. Mini bites food was ...

Our friends wanted to experience one of the mega ships with all the amenities they have available. The ship itself was beautiful and my husband enjoyed all the activities, participating in a lot of the sports and venues offered. He even won a second place soccer competition medal! The gym and walking/running track were nice as was the spa. Our steward was wonderful and we enjoyed all the ports ...
