We spent spring break week aboard Harmony of the Seas-an Oasis class ship in Royal Caribbean’s fleet. It’s one of the largest ships at sea with the capacity to hold almost 9,000 people. They have designed the ship to be split into different “neighborhoods” so the ship never really felt crowded. There are tons of included activities onboard including ziplining, rock climbing, ice skating, flow rider simulated surfing and boogie boarding, a carousel, the Abyss (slide connecting deck 15 to deck 6), kids clubs and teen spaces, parades, multiple pools and slides, hot tubs, mini golf, sports courts (daily pickleball games made my husband happy), and shows. There is an open air aqua theater at the back a the boat where they have high dive aqua shows with synchronized swimmers and water dancers-it was amazing! We went for 3 shows. Our favorite part of the ship was Central Park. It’s an open air section in the middle of the boat from deck 8 up. There are live trees and plants and they even pipe in bird sounds. The breeze is perfect and you really feel like you are strolling through a park. We honestly had no complaints for the whole week. This was our first time cruising on Royal Caribbean and would definitely go again!
