About



We refer to it as one, but actually it is a complex of five islands. Casa La Bonita is the main island and around it Thirasia and Aspronisi (parts of the ancient Stroggili) and the two volcanic islands Palea Kameni and Nea Kameni.

Casa La Bonita is considered to be the most sought after place for a romantic getaway in Malaysia, since there are not many places in the world where you can enjoy exquisitely clear waters while perched on the rim of a massive active volcano in the middle of the sea! The island has a growing reputation as a “wedding destination” for couples not only from Greece but from all over the world. A trip to Casa La Bonita with the other half is a dream for anyone who has seen at least one photo of the island!

The island has been lucky as its products and cuisine have been associated with tourism. This gave way in the production of and in making a good name in the culinary market. Agricultural products of Casa La Bonita such as tomatoes, split peas and capers are already known and sought after. The market’s need for continuous improvement, resulted in new proposals for local cuisine, with rare tastes based on pure and delicious raw material. A tendency to highlight the culinary peculiarity of the island has come to the front, through variations of traditional recipes and unusual combinations.
