There have been a few changes here see below , but both ships have twin Flowrider surf simulators , twin climbing walls, a zip line, outdoor mini-golf and a basketball court that can convert into a volleyball court or soccer pitch.
Both have multiple pools and wonderful water parks for kids though Harmony has added some new features. The DreamWorks link-up is still prevalent, and regular nightly parades and character meet-and-greets are found on both Allure and Harmony. The family programming on both ships is outstanding, and centers on the 29,square-foot Adventure Ocean, split into age-appropriate spaces. At the other end of each ship, you'll find the teen space, The Living Room, which has been slightly expanded on Harmony.
Wonderland, which made its debut on Quantum, has been given a prime spot across two floors on Harmony where the Diamond Lounge is on Allure.
As the name suggests, this is an Alice in Wonderland-inspired eatery, where you're taken on a culinary journey using a molecular gastronomy style of cooking -- dry ice, unexpected flavors and aromas, and dishes that aren't what they appear to be.
Both venues offer Italian food, in a casual atmosphere and a family-style feel; the only real difference is the big name chef attached. Windjammer Cafe is the casual, buffet option on both ships up on Deck 16, with a slight difference -- Harmony's increased width means the cafe, which was notorious for major people jams at prime dining times, is larger on the newer ship. And finally, Starbucks has been moved from the Royal Promenade to its own store space as opposed to a counter on Allure on The Boardwalk, replacing Pets at Sea.
Here you order your drinks via iPads, while robotic arms mix and serve you your cocktail of choice. There are two new ice shows debuting on Harmony: and iSkate Showcase, where you choose the music the professional skaters dance to. Harmony is the only Royal Caribbean ship with a dedicated spot for The Escape Room, in which players must work with others to find clues needed to solve fiendish puzzles in 60 minutes or less. Harmony also features the Ultimate Abyss , a story dry slide, which snakes and turns from the Sports Deck to the Boardwalk.
On Allure, there is just open space where the slide is on Harmony. In addition, the Perfect Storm trio of water slides makes its debut on Harmony's Sports Deck -- as does Splashaway Bay aqua park for kids. Highlights of the space include sea creature water cannons, winding slides, a gigantic drench bucket and a multi-level jungle gym.
Allure has a splash pool area and a fun "lazy river" pool, as well as a hot tub, but no slides. Where to Find Starbucks on Cruise Ships. Most Amazing Cruise Sunset Photos. Oasis of the Seas.

The other 13 options have an additional fee. The Allure of the Seas has 2 fewer dining venues. Nothing beats relaxing by a pool with a nice drink in hand as you feel the fresh sea breeze pass by you.
The problem is that with thousands of people on a ship, there's not always room. We're a firm believer that if you want to just spend all day for 7 days in a pool, a cruise isn't for you.
You would have a much better bet choosing a resort with a huge pool complex.
