I want the businesses in Arillas to survive and to keep offering the mix they do. Their big selling point is the lack of high-rise, all-inclusive, tour-operator driven "holidays." I don't think that can ever change, because the money would go to bigger, more lucrative resorts.
Though Faliraki in Rhodes probably proves me wrong. In 1980 it was hardly more than two huts on a gorgeous sandy beach and twenty years later it was a notorious televised den of debauchery. (Quite enjoyed the trip back to see it in 2006 though..... Can cope with a bit of debauchery.) But I guess Corfu has learned from the Kavos experience.
Arillas would not be quaint or loveable if most of it looked like Whispers has for many years. And it is not in danger of being swamped with neon holiday tourist rubbish for many years to come. And if it ever does, the likes of Dimitris will prevent it happening.
