Review summary

We enjoyed Harmony of the Seas very much! We would definitely sail on it again.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The ate most meals in the main dining room. We tried the Costal Kitchen one evening but wasn’t really wowed by the selection that night. The Windjammer buffet was decent.

Coastal Kitchen

5 out of 5

The atmosphere was very nice but we weren’t wowed by the selection of food the night we chose to go.

Sorrentos

5 out of 5

We enjoyed the pizza more than we thought we would. It was a great late night option.

Main Dining Room

5 out of 5

Our waiters Gede and Putu made the dinning experience very enjoyable. They made sure we were well taken care of and was always willing to bring us something else if we weren’t satisfied with our meal.

Johnny Rockets

5 out of 5

We had a burger and shake that was very tasty. Also, breakfast is free at Johnny Rockets and very good I might add.

Entertainment

Central Park

5 out of 5

We spent the majority of our time enjoying Central Park. It’s absolutely beautiful and so serene.

Royal Theater

5 out of 5

We enjoyed Grease and Columbus in the Royal Theater.

Aquatheater

5 out of 5

Amazing performance at the Aquatheater. The Fine Line show is a must see!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room steward Jermaine was phenomenal. He made sure we had everything we needed and cleaned twice a day. All of the workers were friendly and seemed genuinely happy.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Ship was well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Our cabin was very spacious with plenty of closet space. We had a Junior Suite but it was more spacious than regular suites we’ve had on other cruise lines.

Ship tip

Make reservations for EVERYTHING in the app before you board the ship. Doing that makes it much easier and you won’t have to stand in long standby lines.

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas

5 out of 5

We lived in Galveston for 10 years prior to moving back home so no complaints

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5

No excursion here. Just walked around and ate at Margaritaville

Thumbs Up 0

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5

This was the only port in which we did an excursion. It was nice to get a send off from the locals when it was time to leave the port.

Thumbs Up 0

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5

We walked around the port for a while and then had lunch. The merchants were eager to get you in their stores but a simple no thank you was all it took.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5

Of course with any debarkation process there will be a backup because everyone is trying to get off at the same time but all in all it didn’t take very long to exit the ship.
