Just enjoyed two weeks in Arillas staying at the Kaloudis Holiday Village (our 12th time there, and 15th in Corfu). The whole beach was wonderful when we arrived with loads of sand. The central beach was very wide and the north beach had plenty of room for two rows of sunbeds and no wading around the little headland.
However a couple of storms changed things. The south winds more or less halved the width of the beaches, although leaving enough for one row of sunbeds.
Fortunately beautiful weather over the next few days restored much of the damage and the beaches are still in quite good shape, if not quite as magnificent as at the start of the month. Wading round the headland is once more the norm.
Some people say sunbeds have spoiled the north beach, but I disagree. The sunbeds are invisible until you round the headland, and there are up to 40 about sets of them. The further north part of the beach is as it always was and this year with much more sand. Personally I like a sunbed, rather that a mat, but think that might be something to do with advancing age! The two people who run the sunbeds are both very helpful and obliging providing clips to keep your towel from blowing away and brushing sand off the beds when needed. By the way they have been charging €8 for two beds and a parasol this year.
Hope this report is useful to anyone who has not yet ventured to wonderful Arillas.
