Harmony of the Seas

6 Night Western Caribbean (Ft. Lauderdale Roundtrip)

Sail date: February 12, 2023

Ship: Harmony of the Seas

Traveled as: Family (older children)

Reviewed: 1 year ago

Review summary

Everything you do costs extra $$. With the drink package you have to hunt down a soda machine because there's only 3 places to refill your cup. Ice cream is available for a limited time and 2 stations available where they serve you a small cone.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Nice variety of activities

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Comedians were horrible. Shows needed reservations and all booked. 1 show was good. Game shows with audience participation fun!

Children's Programs

Didn't use programs

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Most were friendly. Dining room staff was great.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
Design was ridiculous. Very difficult to maneuver around. Cleanliness was good except public bathroom sinks didn't all work.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Beds are very uncomfortable. All of our friends had trouble with the beds. Room was superficially clean. Behind curtain there was a large accumulation of dust.

Ship tip

Make all your reservations well in advance and bring plenty of clothes because there's no laundry facility! Ask for a mattress topper!

Doing the math we figured it wasn't going to save us anything to get any drink package. We do fine mostly with drinks that are free. Ice cream was available in cones near the pool and in Windjammer when we wanted it. We did book one excursion, but it was canceled due to mechanical failure, so we saved money there.

Cruising isn't for you. Better find alternative vacations.
