With the rumored cast aside, Mike Spencer — the creative director of the Love Island franchise — dished about all of the details surrounding the spin-off in a statement, ultimately revealing, “It has been rumored now for a while, but we are thrilled to finally confirm that we are making Love Island: All Stars early next year for ITV2 and ITVX. It’s set to be a must watch series seeing some of your favorite islanders from across the years heading back to the stunning South African villa to once again ‘graft’ as their search for love continues. I simply can’t wait!”
As mentioned, fan-favorite islanders will be “heading back to the stunning South African villa” for Love Island: All Stars, but what exactly does this location entail? Keep scrolling to see for yourself…
While Love Island is typically set in Mallorca, Spain for the Summer series, the Winter series will take place in Franschhoek, South Africa instead, which is located near Cape Town.
Assumed that Love Island: All Stars will film at the same location as Love Island: South Africa (which took place from February to April of 2021), Independent reports that “The villa itself sits on the 25-acre estate of Ludus Magnus, and overlooks the Franschhoek valley and nearby mountains. A number of luxury hotels are situated in the surrounding area, and the region is known for the production of fine wines.”
As for what the actual facility entails, the villa “features a large swimming pool at its center, with an exterior kitchen area joined adjacently. The villa also includes a gym, and the ever-popular ‘hideaway’ room, featuring a sign that reads ‘Get Sexy’ hanging above the bed… The villa also has a fire pit, with a South African barbecue.”
Based on the way that this luxury compound sounds, the fan-favorite islanders returning for Love Island: All Stars are in for a treat!
Nonetheless, be sure to mark your calendars, because the inaugural season of Love Island: All Stars is coming this January — it is sure to be nothing short of spectacular!
