The cruise was very good, we enjoyed the Harmony (are second time on board). We were very impressed with our Waiter and Assistant Waiter (Robert & Yayun), they were true world class servers they definitely deserve 5 Stars or 15 stars if we could give it to them.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
By far the fastest embarkation we have ever experienced and we have been cruising for many years.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We had assigned seating in the My Time Dining room. The service by Robert and Yayun was world class. The menu and service in the main dining room, for us, was so good there was no reason to spend extra money to go to a specialty restaurant. Daily, we did lunch in the Windjammer (buffet) and the food (for us) was very good and the selections changed daily, the service was also very good.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We spent a lot of time in the Solarium and for us we found it very relaxing. We did venture out to enjoy the "Sexiest Man" contest and the "Belly Flop" contest, always good fun.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Attended the Beatle Maniacs show which was very, very good and two Ice shows which were also great. The reason for the lower rating is the music played on the Promenade deck (5) is so loud you can't have a conversation with your partner. Additionally, they do two parades (both the same) and they aren't really good.
Service and Staff
3 out of 5
Our Waiter and Assistant Waiter (Robert & Yayun) were true world class servers they definitely deserve 5 Stars or 15 stars if I could give them. They knew our name from day one, were there whenever we needed anything and made sure daily we were satisfied with our meal. Again, Robert & Yayun were outstanding. Unfortunately on this cruise our room steward was not that good, we asked for an extra bath towel daily and that never happened, one day we did even get any wash cloths, and the room was never dusted. We bought liquor on-board and on the last day they delivered it in 3 boxes. I called Guest Services and asked for two boxes that would contain 3 bottles in each box. I was told they don't have those boxes any longer. That was a lie, as we saw several people while embarking carrying Royal Caribbean 3 bottle boxes.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Outside on my stateroom most areas were clean, some railings by the Windjammer restaurant were dirty or greasy from suntan lotion or something.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The room and balcony were great. Very comfortable and we had plenty of hangers and room to put our clothes, shoes, etc. The only downside was it could use a good daily dusting and vacuum. Additionally, we requested 1 extra bath towel and that never happened.
Ship tip
Make sure you have an assigned table and time for dinner. I would not recommend My Time Dining as you will have a long wait, especially if the ship is fully booked as ours was.
