Thank you very much, another great video. A lot of great rooms and fantastic food. My family is trying to decide between a Galveston cruise on the Harmony of the Jubilee. We watched your Celebration video since that ship is similar to the Jubilee. Really appreciate all the extra tips and tricks.
Thanks so much for the kind words!! We really appreciate your support! I will say this…. There is no wrong answer! They’re both great in their own way! I do know that the Jubilee has free Italian and free Chinese-Bang(Mexican and Chinese restaurant) every night of the cruise where Celebration only offers one night for free. They are doing this since it’s still the inaugural year. We really hope you enjoy your cruise!!
So glad I found this tour. I’ve watched many videos in preparation for our 2/25 cruise for my 60th BD. 1st time on RCCL and we are looking forward to a funfilled week. We have an extended ocean view deck on 8 and I asked the TA if there was an entrance from the hall & she said no. Super glad you pointed that out that little shortcut. Saving this so I can watch again. Yes, I liked & subscribed. lol
Leaving Sunday, 3/3/24, and love having a better idea of how to navigate the ship from our cabin, to main areas like dining, bars, entertainment, etc. Video is well done!
46:35 - cool! I didn't know about this door in Vintages! I worked on this ship as musician almost for 1,5 year and had not even a clue about existence of this hidden passage!
You both are great. I’m a new subscriber and looking forward to looking at your other videos. This is very helpful. I’m going with my sister next month, so excited this cruise on Harmony of the Seas.
I went on Harmony back in October for my 50th birthday, it is by far the best ship I’ve been on, I really enjoyed it, im booked on Wonder of the Sea this November, thanks for the video, new subscriber
Thanks so much Rod!! Thanks SO much for the support!! We really like the Harmony! We also have a tour on the Wonder out. They both are great ships but Wonder is a little different. Make sure to check out the Mason Jar Bar on the Wonder! Great place to have some fun!! Bon Voyage!!
Thank you for the walk-through. We will be going on our first Royal Caribbean cruise on the Harmony of the Seas in a few weeks. The insider tips gave us information we didn't know. We're looking forward to our first adventure on the Harmony of the Seas.
Holy Smokes!! That’s a big family!! A cruise is perfect for that many people!! Everyone is free to move around the ship and do what they want! And most of all, no one is having to cook for everyone!! Thank you so much for your kind words!! We hope it’s the trip of a lifetime for all of you!! Bon Voyage!!
I love your ship tours, they are some of the best. We booked and sailed on Harmony of the Seas based on your tour and loved the ship and wanted to try a smaller Royal ship but unfortunately had issues with pluming on Harmony and received poor guest service so are looking for a different brand. I will continue to watch your ship tours. Do you have any other cruise lines for smaller ships you have tried and liked?
Hi, I just made a reservation on this ship for January 2025 after watching this video…the ship look amazing! Our ports of call will be Roatan, Puerto Costa Maya and Cozumel. What would you recommend to do once we get there? Are there possibilities to explore or we are stuck with RC Shore excursions? Consider that we come from Italy and we will spend 10 days in the US before the cruise so we would avoid expensive shore excursions unless necessary. Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching! For Roatan, I would recommend an excursion, since you don’t know your way around there and many areas are sketchy. For Cozumel, I personally would recommend renting a jeep on your own and driving around the island, it’s very easy to do and they will give you maps. Close to Maya is my absolute favorite Caribbean port… You’ll want to go to the local beach, Mahahual Beach where there is great food, massages on the beach and shopping. The taxi to the beach is four dollars per person each way. We actually like to walk to Costa Maya, it’s not quite 3 miles each way. We are actually working on a video now showing how to do it, so keep your eye out for that.
Voyager was my first and we went to Cozumel, and while there, we saw Harmony. She was my first Oasis class I've seen in person and I actually get to go on her in December
Awesome Tour! Love the Oasis Class Ships! We will be taking our granddaughter on the Horizon 2025,can’t wait! Our Son cruised this ship 2023 and said it was amazing!
We have been on Harmony twice 12/16 & 12/23. We are booked again for 6/24. Great ship. So far, Symphony is our favorite Oasis class ship. I see no sense in having a pool in the Solarium. Allure has one, and it's really not a pool. It's just a water puddle for people to stand around and drink their booze. There is no room for anyone who actually wants to enjoy a pool . I normally stay out of the pools on a ship because all I can think about is all the drinkers peeing in the water. Great video .
Thanks so much for watching!! We really appreciate your support!! The “pool” located in any solarium is strictly a “conversation pool!” It’s pretty much a place to stay cool while you’re meeting other passengers. We hope your next cruises will be your best ever!!
Absolutely!! Thanks for asking! The beach is named Mahahual Beach. There is shopping all over there along with restaurants, mainly the Krazy Lobster. There are massage tables pretty much all over the beach. The best price is $20/hour. Some will be a little higher but you can find the $20 if you look or insist on the price. A taxi will cost you $4 per person one way.
We will be going there again next week but I will tell you that they have recently changed their prices but they can still be negotiated down to $20 an hour. Even if they come down to $30 an hour still a good deal. Those $20 or $30 massages are all up and down the beach. Thank you so much for watching the video.
I realize you might not know where they are to be found. Leave the terminal and either a walk 3 miles or grab a taxi to the local beach called Mahahual Beach. They are all up and down the beach along with great restaurants and shopping.
Hi! They are all comped thru the casino. We are actually working on a video now to show how we do this, stay tuned as it will appear in the next couple of weeks.
Nice tour👍 Promanade Cafe has free regular coffee in the large carafes. Johnny Rockets has free breakfast in the morning. On the jogging track, at the big seat area....is it smoking? Does deck 9 elevator foyer, at the Central Park, have the secret door that has a balcony that overlooks Central Park? Central Park cafe is our favorite boarding day eatery.
I can’t remember exactly what we said about the massages on the beach in the video, they are located at the local beach called Mahahual beach. You can walk there or take a taxi for $4 per person each way. The walk is 3 miles. They are all up and down the beach and the prices have recently gone up to about $30 per hour, still a great deal!
Thank you for your excellent video. First cruise was Feb 2024 on Voyager. I'm hooked. Did Mariner Oct 2024 now Harmony March 2025. I want to retire and be like you! Do you track your annual expenses? If so, approximately how much do you spend annually being a full timer? Is there ever a time when you are not on a ship (excluding port calls)? I'm ready to sell my business and live at sea but have no idea what to expect or how to begin.
If you’re talking about the ship itself, the Harmony is 1,188 feet long and the Liberty is 1,112 feet long. Passenger wise the Harmony holds 5,479 and the Liberty holds 4,960. Thanks so much!!
We actually have spent quite a bit of time on the liberty of the seas, that was our first ship for when we went full-time. We spent six months on board, great ship.
Great question about tipping! Tips are automatically added to your account daily, $16.50 per day per person unless you have a suite then it’s $18.50 per person daily. If you wish to tip more as you go you’re more than welcome to bring cash and tip extra
QUICK QUESTION: Can you tell me how many ladies wore long evening gowns in Formal Nights? The kind that may have a dash of sequins or an overlay of chiffon? I really need to know. We will be on the Harmony in a few months. Thanks. 😊
Not dumb questions at all! The maps are outside of each elevator, and there are restrooms everywhere (thankfully). I grew up on ships, so those terms are easy for me, but you are correct, aft is back and forward is front, starboard is right and port is left
Mahahual Beach is the name of the beach. The massages are all up and down the beach. You could encounter some massage girls giving you a higher price, but hold to your guns and either insist on the $20 or find another until you get the $20. That’s what the price is supposed to be but naturally you’re going to find some that will try to jack the price up. It’s rather easy to find the $20 people. Also make sure they know it’s $20 per HOUR. Not 30,40,or 50 minutes. The beach is a short taxi ride from the port. It’ll be $4/person to get there by taxi.
Loved the video!! We will be on her for my birthday the end of February 24. It will be our first large ship. I didn’t see a bar area that is inside (air condition) that you can see out at the water. My husband’s favorite place to hang out when we are cruising. We are not up to the deck 17 status yet. 😀. Can you tell me if there is an area that he may like?
In my opinion, that is one of the biggest flaws of these ships. They forgot to show us the ocean, which is why we are on a cruise to begin with! I would suggest checking out the Wonderland bar, at least you can see deck six where the aqua theater is
The wife and I are going on harmony Feb 2025...can't wait....by the way...how do you become a full time cruisers..how do you make a living...just curious
Hey guys!! Thanks SO much for commenting!! Great question!! We are pretty much retired! I do still work online on the ship pertaining to our investments. However, we don’t have a lot of bills because of us living on the ship…. No food, utilities, property taxes, etc. But I’m able to meet our monetary needs investing online. Our largest bill per year are port fees and taxes. We really hope your Harmony cruise is the best ever!!
This is the best walk through I have seen. Thank you
You are most welcome, thanks for watching and we really appreciate the feedback ❤️🩹
Great video! 😊

Thank you!!
We loved that ship!
Isn't it a great ship!! You don't really even know you're on a ship!!
Same! It’s definitely one of our favorites
46:35 - cool! I didn't know about this door in Vintages! I worked on this ship as musician almost for 1,5 year and had not even a clue about existence of this hidden passage!
I absolutely love this ship. My favorite part was getting to know the staff! They are an amazing group of people from all over the world.
We couldn’t have said it any better!!! Every one of the staff from top to bottom are ROCKSTARS!! Bon Voyage!!
Great video! Best one I’ve seen of the Harmony. Thank you for making it.
I am so glad that you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
We're scheduled to sail on Harmony of the Seas Nov 2024. Can't wait!
It is such an amazing ship, I hope you love it as much as we do! Thank you so much for watching the video

Thank you for the walk-through. We will be going on our first Royal Caribbean cruise on the Harmony of the Seas in a few weeks. The insider tips gave us information we didn't know. We're looking forward to our first adventure on the Harmony of the Seas.
That’s so awesome!! Thanks so much for your kind comment! We hope you enjoy it!! Bon Voyage!!
Thank you for this very informative video! I can’t wait! We’re a family of 31 going this summer 😄
Holy Smokes!! That’s a big family!! A cruise is perfect for that many people!! Everyone is free to move around the ship and do what they want! And most of all, no one is having to cook for everyone!! Thank you so much for your kind words!! We hope it’s the trip of a lifetime for all of you!! Bon Voyage!!
I love your ship tours, they are some of the best. We booked and sailed on Harmony of the Seas based on your tour and loved the ship and wanted to try a smaller Royal ship but unfortunately had issues with pluming on Harmony and received poor guest service so are looking for a different brand. I will continue to watch your ship tours. Do you have any other cruise lines for smaller ships you have tried and liked?
Sailing January 21 2024..
So excited :)
Yahoo!! We really hope you'll enjoy it!! Thanks for commenting!!
Awesome! She’s a great ship with so many things to do
How was the harmony? Going at the end of February.

I love this ship!! We can’t wait to cruise with you on the ship also!!
I can’t wait to cruise with you!
Voyager was my first and we went to Cozumel, and while there, we saw Harmony. She was my first Oasis class I've seen in person and I actually get to go on her in December
Very exciting for you! I hope you love The Harmony as much as I do
How was the Harmony? Going with the family in February.
OK I am convinced. I will book it right away thank you for sharing.
We’re sure you’ll love it!! Let us know!! Bon Voyage!!
Awesome Tour! Love the Oasis Class Ships! We will be taking our granddaughter on the Horizon 2025,can’t wait! Our Son cruised this ship 2023 and said it was amazing!
Thanks so much Shelia! We so love that class of ships! We really hope we get to cruise with you in the near future!! Bon Voyage!!
Hi thanks 😊 for this awesome tour. I have never been on this before. I will be sailing on it in November 2023.

Hello, could you please give me some info about the massage on the beach at Costa Maya? Thank You

I've been on the harmony once before in 2018 and I'll be back on the ship in September ❤ i love this ship and watching this has me excited
We love this ship also and we really appreciate you watching our video!! We hope this cruise is even better than the last one!! Bon Voyage!!
How do you keep going on cruises
Hi! They are all comped thru the casino. We are actually working on a video now to show how we do this, stay tuned as it will appear in the next couple of weeks.
Nice tour👍
Promanade Cafe has free regular coffee in the large carafes. Johnny Rockets has free breakfast in the morning.
On the jogging track, at the big seat area....is it smoking?
Does deck 9 elevator foyer, at the Central Park, have the secret door that has a balcony that overlooks Central Park?
Central Park cafe is our favorite boarding day eatery.
The big seating area isn’t smoking. I can’t remember about the secret door but I think it does. Thanks so much for commenting!! Bon Voyage!!
Interested in the Costa Maya massage. We cruise in March 2025
I can’t remember exactly what we said about the massages on the beach in the video, they are located at the local beach called Mahahual beach. You can walk there or take a taxi for $4 per person each way. The walk is 3 miles. They are all up and down the beach and the prices have recently gone up to about $30 per hour, still a great deal!

Nice
Thanks!
Did you do the zipline eventually? 😂 I'm prone to falling too...skipping the zip 😅
I’m planning on doing it THIS week!! I’m (Mark) on the Harmony on Sunday!!
How big is it compared to liberty of the seas
If you’re talking about the ship itself, the Harmony is 1,188 feet long and the Liberty is 1,112 feet long. Passenger wise the Harmony holds 5,479 and the Liberty holds 4,960. Thanks so much!!
Our first cruise is September 14th.
That’s pretty close!! We’re back on the Harmony in August! We simply love that ship!! We hope you have an incredible cruise!!
Have you been on Liberty of the seas
We actually have spent quite a bit of time on the liberty of the seas, that was our first ship for when we went full-time. We spent six months on board, great ship.
Maybe you'll say something closer to the end, but my husband and I are embarking on our 1st cruise for our 25th anniversary and wonder about tipping?
Great question about tipping! Tips are automatically added to your account daily, $16.50 per day per person unless you have a suite then it’s $18.50 per person daily. If you wish to tip more as you go you’re more than welcome to bring cash and tip extra
We're taking y'all with us on this cruise! Your info is so helpful and well-presented!!
QUICK QUESTION:
Can you tell me how many ladies wore long evening gowns in Formal Nights? The kind that may have a dash of sequins or an overlay of chiffon?
I really need to know. We will be on the Harmony in a few months. Thanks. 😊
I've heard the air conditioning in the state rooms does not actually cool the room. Is that true?
I have lots of dumb questions 😅 Are there plenty of restrooms, maps? "Aft" is rear of the ship, "forward" front? PS THANK YOU for this video!
Not dumb questions at all! The maps are outside of each elevator, and there are restrooms everywhere (thankfully). I grew up on ships, so those terms are easy for me, but you are correct, aft is back and forward is front, starboard is right and port is left
Which beach offers the $20 in Costa Maya?
Mahahual Beach is the name of the beach. The massages are all up and down the beach. You could encounter some massage girls giving you a higher price, but hold to your guns and either insist on the $20 or find another until you get the $20. That’s what the price is supposed to be but naturally you’re going to find some that will try to jack the price up. It’s rather easy to find the $20 people.

Too many extra costs!
Yes, I agree with you on that and we don’t do the extras. We still have a great time and love the ship
