My husband, 6 year old daugher and I are coming to the admiral mid October and have had many varied reports - what is it actually like? clean, quite/noisy, suitable for a wee girl. Will the pool be warm in October?

Not the kind of place you would go to if you want a relaxing quite family holiday. Appartments were very poor standard, we were stuck in the studio annex to start with which was absolutely disgusting - dirty and very poorly maintained. Were moved to another which was bigger but not much better. The entertainment went on until the wee hours and the cleaners knock on the door to clean the appartments any time from 8am onwards. The resort of Argassi is nothing but cheap tourist shops selling nothing but tat. The appartments and resort on the whole is alright if you are a sun worshiping boozer who wants to party all night and sleep all day. The only good part of the island is turtle beach which we escaped to daily using the apartment as a base.. Didnt cook in it and was so dirty that never even emptied our suitcases. Were infested with ants and lizards and on the 3 days there were bad thunder storms our apartment flooded - we were blamed originally by the receptionist for not closing the doors properly but it was coming in a hole in the wall. Lower apartments have drains running past them each morning and slimey and disgusting - the oil leak and the river of oil that flowed down the open drains past the apartment one morning were a surprise too. Very poorly maintained inside and out.
