Review summary

Our 7 day Eastern Caribbean cruise turned into an 11 day Western Caribbean cruise thanks to Hurricane Dorian! Captain Johnny kept us well out of harm's way and assured us that we had enough food & fuel. The rest of the staff brought on additional entertainment for our enjoyment. Royal Caribbean honored all drink & specialty restaurant packages for the extended portion of our cruise. We couldn't have asked for a better cruise under the circumstances.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We used the Royal Caribbean app to check in and as a result enjoyed expedited embarkation. The only way we would have gotten on this ship faster would have been if we would have walked faster! I highly recommend checking in through the RC app!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We enjoyed a magical experience at Wonderland & a fabulous array of Italian foods at Jamie's Italian. Both of our waiter's asked us to trust them and we were not disappointed. The food & drink in all other areas was very good!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We are seniors so no rock climbing for us but we enjoyed the pools & spas and a little mini golf!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Grease was fabulous and received a standing ovation! The Fine Line is a must see spectacle that is a one of kind experience. We enjoyed the piano player in the Schooner bar and the bands by the pool.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I wish I could personally have thanked each waiter who removed my dirty dishes with a smile. Our room attendant kept our cabin clean and granted our every wish.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Harmony of the Seas was spotless & gleaming with high end shine!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The balcony cabins are designed for maximum space and comfort. I was excited that my husband and I had our own closets. We had difficulty opening our balcony door. This was my only complaint.

Ship tip

Relax and enjoy this magnificent ship!

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
Port Canaveral was our home port. We did not do any excursions there.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We loved the Oasis Lagoon and lounged the day away there. The hamburgers are the best on Coco Cay! We had a thunder storm pass close by so the pools & water park closed for a time but after that everything was Perfect!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We walked off the ship, collected our luggage and were on our way in less than 30 minutes.
