Season seven introduced format twists such as a restructured Casa Amor and second‑chance recouplings that altered contestant dynamics. Design additions included a speakeasy‑style lounge and a photo booth that immediately became secluded make‑out spots. The show preserves continuous camera surveillance, capturing interpersonal interactions as contestants compete through conversations and unconventional challenges for a $100,000 prize. The Fiji villa spans 30,000 square feet and is configured to expose and connect islanders while they form and maintain bonds. Season six marked the first long‑term property lease, when production demolished an existing building and rebuilt the villa from the ground up.
From the curious restructuring of Casa Amor-a twist that saw couples split up temporarily and sent to a new villa with other contestants-to second-chance recouplings, this season ventured into uncharted territory. Among these firsts, there were some major design updates: a new speakeasy-style lounge and a photo booth entered the villa. Both locations quickly became go-to make-out spots for the Fiji-set show's contestants-because if you give an islander a secluded area, they're going to kiss in it.
The 30,000-square-foot Fijian villa is designed to expose and connect the islanders as they find and maintain their connections. The dwelling viewers know and love is relatively new within the show's history. "Season six was the first time we had a chance to do a long-term lease on a property. We demolished a building and built it from the ground up for the first time," Love Island production designer Richard Jensen tells AD.
