Comments Although it rained nearly every day of our week in Cozumel, we still had a great time at Iberostar. We found the dive operation on site was very accommodating, and quite professional. With the weather being a problem, they allowed for last minute cancellations or additions of divers with grace. Having stayed in Cozumel many times at various places, we have decided that this location can't be beat. 10 minutes to a dive site is a real plus particularly if the weather is iffy. We weren't sure if we would get our "money's worth" out of an all inclusive, however, we are now convinced that this also increased our enjoyment. We could always find something we liked in their offering. Helping yourself at a buffet presentation is a lot quicker than ordering off a menu. Previously, we have stayed at pricey places, only to find the food also expensive and very mediocre. Here, we just relaxed and ordered another Cerveza. We are going back soon.
