Review summary

A great ship with lots to do. Not as much to do for my 8 year old as my 11 year old could do. I thought the restaurant options were limited for upscale food. (Just the main dining rooms or the Solarium Bistro) Other than that it was all junk/snack food. Pools seemed to be packed when we were at sea. I wished the Solarium had a pool. The ice cream machines seemed to be having problems a lot and the lines were long. I would have liked to have seen more drink specials for those without a drink package.

the time change really through us off. Make sure to stay on ship time 100% of the time. Also, you need to be 18+ to disembark ship without guardians.

the snorkeling excursion was great. Makes the ferry ride and shuttle to the locations worth it. The lunch on the beach bar was excellent.

Other Oasis class ships have offered a 10 drink card for a discount. Not sure if Harmony does, cruising her in September.

I agree that kids areas were mostly garbage food. Makes it harder for a parent to guide their kids toward healthier choices. The solarium and windjammer are great options when cruising with littles. There was also a cafe with salads and sandwiches in Central Park. Truly is an amazing ship all in all.
