Harmony of the Seas is the third addition to Royal Caribbean's impressive Oasis class family of ships and one of the largest ships currently afloat. Onboard, the range of activities and entertainment available make the ship feel like a floating amusement park. From the tallest slide at sea to a bar tended by robots, the ship offers a thrilling blend of unique entertainment and thrill-a-minute activities that will ensure there's never a dull moment - unless you want one! Younger cruisers can jump right into the fun in the Youth Zone, the world's largest kids' area at sea.
The ship features seven distinct "neighborhoods," each with a unique combination of activities and dining options. Central Park offers a serene green space with real trees and plants as well as Jaime's Italian, a world-class restaurant by Jaime Oliver; the Boardwalk features a carousel and climbing wall, and the Promenade is where guests will find the Bionic Bar and tons of shopping options. Cruisers in search of live music, a game of chance in the casino, a stand-up set, or even a full Broadway-style production will want to head for Entertainment Place where they'll find the Royal Theater, Casino Royale, Studio B, and more.
Harmony of the Seas receives high praise for its impressive ship design, friendly and attentive staff, and a wide range of activities and entertainment options. Most guests found the ship clean and well-maintained, with excellent service and enjoyable shows. However, some guests noted issues with crowded areas, elevator wait times, and mixed experiences with food quality and specialty dining. Pricing for extras and specialty services was also a point of contention for some. Overall, the cruise is highly recommended for families and those seeking a lively, activity-filled vacation, though guests looking for a quieter or more intimate experience may find the ship overwhelming.
Service on Harmony of the Seas is consistently rated as excellent, with staff described as friendly, helpful, and attentive. Many guests highlighted the crew's professionalism and willingness to go above and beyond.
