Booked two week RS tour for Greece next spring, with tour ending April 3. We are considering visiting possibly three islands - Milos, Santorini, Paros, Mykonos are candidates. Wondering if some establishments may still be closed that time of year?

The tourist season starts with Greek Easter (12 April next year). Before that most places on the islands are closed unless they serve the local populations which are not big, 10,000-15,000 residents.

Just because you travel off season doesn't mean Greece shuts down.
They'll always be shops, markets and tavernas open for locals.
The scenery will still be there, classic Cyclades Villages will still be there, beaches will still be there and so will locals.
And since it's off season the hordes of tourists will not be there!
If you are not fussy and demand lots of services you should be OK.
