Comments Again we went to dive with Dressel divers and stay at the Iberostar Cozummel. We were 18 (14 divers). We took advantage of Dressel package that offer 8 dives during the day, one night dive and 2 dives in the Cenotes all include. By paying in advance we got 20% off. We all dive from the same boat, 8 to a guide. Dressel gave us the same DM for all the day dive so it was good and he spoke french as some don't speak English or so little. We saw the usual fish and some toadfish, some sharks. We did two dive in the morning, so we could go after with the non diver do thing and shop in San Miguel.

We really love the hotel and some did compare it to club med for the room, staff and GO, only the food made a difference but it was very good
