My weekend away on Harmony…. one word WOW!!!!!

22 15

I was lucky enough to be rewarded with a place on Harmony of the seas, the worlds largest cruise ship on the inaugural voyage.

From the moment I stepped on board I knew she was going to be amazing and she did not disappoint.

The ship features The Ultimate Abyss which flings thrill-seekers down 10 decks, at more than 150 feet above the waves, in one of a pair of tunnel slides which include scary noises and glimpses of the synchronised swimming and acrobatic diving in the Aqua Theatre.

More fun can be had flying through the air on a zip wire for a seagull’s eye view of the ship’s merry-go-round, deck games, hot dog stand, Johnny Rockets Fifties-style diner and new Sabor Mexican restaurant on the Boardwalk nine decks below.

The Boardwalk is also overlooked by the floor-to-ceiling windows of three-deck-high Dazzles dance lounge.

Head to deck 18 to race down the Perfect Storm trio of water slides, snaking down above the 40 tall trees and 12,000 other plants of Central Park. One of the slides will swirl you around in a giant bowl before flushing you out.

There are also two FlowRiders with simulated waves for surfing and two rock-climbing walls. There is ice-skating in the indoor rink, where you can hurtle round or cut a figure of eight.

There are 18 decks inside the 227,000 tonne vessel with room for theatres, water parks and fitness facilities

And if you feel like a ten-mile run, just do 25 circuits of the track on deck five, waving to the yoga and spinning classes in the new studios bolted on to the side of the ship.

While the child-free can retreat to the four whirlpools suspended over the ocean in the adults-only, three-deck-high Solarium, small children can play in Splashaway Bay, a big water park with little slides.

My highlights were having a Pina Colada made by the robot at the Bionic Bar.

Watching Grease the musical and I dont do musicals, this was amazing enjoyed every single second of it.

Sampling a Kir Royale cocktail on the Rising Tide Bar, the first moving bar in the world.

Having a guided tour of the ship and viewing some of the most amazing Suites on the ship, if my numbers come up on the lottery I will be in the Presidential Suite sleeping up to 14 with a hot tub on the balcony like a shot! How the other half live.

Had some of the most delicious food I have ever eaten.

So a huge thank you to Cruise.co.uk & Royal Caribbean for allowing me to treasure some fantastic memories and now I am a Harmony expert, I cant wait to answer any queries and do some enquires and bookings for you very soon, take the plunge you dont know what you are missing!
