In January it was previously reported that the old villa, located in Sant Llorenç des Cardassar in the north-east, would be axed in favour of a new accommodation for the contestants.

A source told The Sun at the time: ‘ITV bosses think this is the right moment to refresh this element of the show, just as they did in series three back in 2017.

‘Bosses are conscious of the fact that this is also an opportunity to consider all the new elements they could introduce to enhance the show even further.’

They added: ‘For fans of Love Island this is huge news and they’ll be eager to see what the new villa looks like and how much it could change the show.’

And bosses have certainly pulled out the stops for the new villa, with images showing workers toiling away to ensure the home is up to scratch for the eighth series of the ITV2 show, which begins on June 6.

Scaffolding can be seen surrounding the villa, while various machinery and tractors are dotted around the land.

Small marquees have also been erected outside, with numerous trade lorries and trucks seen arriving at the stone-clad accommodation. 

Despite the new location, the property will still boast the all important firepit and swimming pool as per the previous series.

While it’s also been reported that bosses have created the biggest gym and workout area ever seen on the ITV2 programme.

It is alleged that they hope that the new feature will get the Islanders’ hearts racing and incite them to hook up more with each other.

Though the rustic yet charming villa looks less opulent than the last abode – which was used for five years – there’ll no doubt be no shortage of romance within its walls as a new batch of señors and señoras touch down in Spain in the search for love. 

The excitement for series eight is already amping up as Love Island has shared its first teasers for the show proclaiming itself to be the ‘OG of love’ compared to other rival dating shows.

‘The series generally is really important for them as it attracts the all-important younger viewers, so if they can get a second series in one year then everyone will be delighted.
