Creator's Key Takeaways

There's a common misconception that being at the front of the ship means that you're going to have a lot more Motion in your room this was absolutely not the case for us

The main feature that you're probably booking this room for is this forward-facing window it's large it's angled and it gives you great views out of the front of the ship

This area underneath the window and wall on that end of the room was really useful for storing extra shoes and clothes and hanging things on the wall

Creator's Tips & Advice

Be careful not to put anything too top-heavy on the bathroom shelves as they don't have high lips.
Keep an eye out for dolphins when pulling away from port.
Close the blinds at night to avoid reflecting light into the bridge.

YouTube Video Description

Only a few rooms on every ship face forward, and I wanted to try one! Here's a quick tour of Room 504 on Deck 11 on Harmony of the Seas. The extra space provided by the slanted window is significant! We enjoyed the extra floor space for shoes and bags, and the movement was not bad at all. This room is similar to all the ones on Oasis-class ships like Oasis of the Seas, Allure, Symphony, Wonder, and Utopia.
