Everyone I had contact with at this place was very kind and helpful. I struggle with talking on the phone and they had no problem helping me out via email. We had a great experience here! My 5 year old was scared to get in the pool for his swim class, so the front desk person gave him some “mermaid magic” to help him feel more at ease. I loved that! His instructor was nice and calm and made my 5 yr old feel comfortable. He was able to get in the pool and complete the class. After his class was over, my 5 yr old said that he really wanted to go back to “the Dolphin place”. My 8 year old had a great time! Messiah is a fantastic instructor! He explained things clearly and my 8 yr old was able to improve his swimming in just one session. He loved that he got to jump into the pool from the diving block. We would definitely recommend this place for kids swimming lessons. – via

I had no idea how fun & exciting SCUBA can be until I called & got in for a private lesson.
Rich was terrific & covered the classroom material thoroughly, adding personal insights from 35+ yrs experience. The water lessons were intense but worth it!
Can’t wait to learn more in time 🙂 – via

I don’t live in the area but I came across their virtual store on eBay while looking for an oceanic pro plus 4 dive computer. The price I got on eBay was a little too good to be true so I called the shop and spoke to the owner who honored the erroneous price and shipped it to me for free to Florida.

Talk about customer service. WOW!! – via

If you want your money taken for services not provided, proceed. Dolphin Swim School refused to schedule a make up class for my special needs granddaughter. We have been there swimming for over 7 months. The “new” ‘Aquatics Director’, Stacy, advised me that they will not schedule a make up class for her because “it isn’t fair to other families.” What isn’t fair is to take someone’s money and not provide the service that they paid for. My granddaughter was passed around like a bag of Dorritos because they cannot keep their swim instructors. I had to get management involved with one for inappropriate behavior. Most of the rest of them are so busy trying to be best friends, that they are not teaching the kids proper swimming. I have ONE make up class left. I was advised today that sadly, although I paid, they will not honor that class but gee they “understand my frustration.” If you want chaos and turmoil in a swim school, go ahead with Dolphin. I have more grandkids up and coming that will need to learn how to swim and I will surely NOT be bringing them here. – via

I want to start by expressing our genuine appreciation for Dolphin Scuba; they’ve consistently proven themselves as an exceptional establishment, and we find ourselves visiting quite frequently. Today, I’m compelled to share our recent experience, all thanks to an extraordinary member of their team – Brandon.

Recently, I encountered a problem with my dive watch and transmitter, and Brandon stepped in to assist. Not only did he connect me with the manufacturer to address the issue, but he also tirelessly supported me throughout multiple stages over the course of a few weeks. It’s individuals like Brandon who truly elevate the quality of service at this shop. Kudos to him for being an invaluable asset! – via

***NOT BIPOC FRIENDLY***I had the pleasure of interacting with Mr. Matt Estrada. They recommended my son take private lessons for 3 hrs. When I asked reasoning (as in compared to just retaking a class), this guy says “you are paying for these instructors to be away from their families.” I have enough battle buddies that have lost their limbs and lives, sacrificing time away from their families, not to mention my own war tours. So for me, that was a little inappropriate. When I told him I was charged three times, this guy argued with me and told me I was not. He broke down the charges and only identified two times in which I was charged, so I showed him my bank statement with three charges. That’s when he said it was a charge for equipment and he did not include that information because it was not a charge for an actual class. Talk about causing confusion! Since it was my son taking the class, I had asked that they please alert to me any new charges. They agreed, but failed to do so on the third charge. This guy was nasty and passively racist. He started bullying me stating that he has me on camera agreeing to the charge. I told him I was only contacted about the plans for the weekend. He never apologized for his rudeness and never apologized for giving me incorrect information. If you have to work with this company, ask for Steve. – via
