We dove with Dressel at the Barcelo Maya in June of 2007 and again in 2009. After having a bad experience elsewhere, Dressel was great and a welcome relief. Daniel at the front desk has been there forever and takes very good care of his customers. Their rental equipment and wetsuits are in great shape. Their dive masters are great... more

I just got back from Cozumel and had a fantastic dive experience with Dressel. Our instructor Martin from Argentina was great. Sara practiced with my wife as long as it took to get her comfortable with her skills. We all decended very slowly with Martin checking in everyone the whole way down. Everyone stayed calm and together. We ascended slowley... more

I arrived at the resort and decided to take the intro at the pool. I actually got anxious when I went under water and immediately decided to get my certificate. Annalene was my instructor and she will always be my Scuba Goddess. A great teacher, with patience, knowledge, good sense of humor who kept an eye on us like a... more

Warning! As an Ex-employee of Dressel Divers I feel it is my duty to Warn the general public about this company. Firstly although there are a number of excelent Instructors that work throughout the company there are a large number of qualified instructors that have only been diving for only 4 months! They can do this because the owner of... more

We have been diving for 26 years and since the reviews were so good on this company I spoke with them while I was staying at the Riu Palace. We used a local company in Playa del Carmen and another local group in Cozumel that were excellent. The price per dive was almost double with Dressel and Scuba Caribe (at... more

I have used Dressel Divers at the Iberostar Tucan 2 times & the Iberostar Cozumel 1 time in the last 5 years (multiple dives) and all experiences have been nothing short of excellent. The staff was very friendly, safe & knowledgable.. we planned the dive and dove the plan. Not over booked, safety 1st, and considerate to your dive expectations.... more

My wife and I spent an excellent vacation at the Iberostar in Cozumel. It is about 30 minutes from town on the southern end of the island and is just what we were looking for. Very laid back atmosphere helpful staff and a 5 star dive shop. I have been diving for over 9 years and most has been spent... more

While staying at the Barcelo resort recently, we booked an ocean/cenote snorkeling trip with Dressler at the resort. Due to some mix-up, we went on the snorkeling trip only. Mr. Daniel Schmid of Dressler apologized for the error and asked if we would re-schedule the right trip and he would not charge us for either the wrong trip or the... more

I can't speak highly enough of Dressel Divers. I stayed at the IB Del Mar and did the Discovery Scuba (first time diver). I was nervous, and our instructor, David was very friendly and professional, and made me feel very comfortable. My traveling partner was certified five years ago, and said the equipment was pretty top notch for a resort.... more

Dressel Divers out of Iberostar Cozumel are great. Rachel, Nico, and Ana are wonderful. Good prices, no crowds, and proffesional service. We will use them again next year more
