Love Island’s new villa for 2024 has been revealed and this year producers hope the revamped rules for Hideaway will make the series the sexiest yet.
MailOnline can reveal islanders can access private rooms complete with hot tub and swing at any time instead of being locked, with a new ‘No Invitation Needed’ order.
And there will be no distractions for the stars looking to get intimate under the sheets, as bosses have scrapped the kinky closet full of body chocolate and sexy lingerie, to weed out any contestants who fall into old habits of islanders of the past.
When they’re not fighting over the Hideaway, the only area of the villa where they can be totally alone with their partner, this year’s cast will enjoy the Spanish sun on the new Miami-inspired outdoor sofas.
The girls have been treated to a new suite packed with designer beauty products, this time on the ground floor of the villa, in a move producers hope will give them even more time to gossip about who their type is on paper.

Love Island’s colorful bedroom is ready and waiting for six couples to settle into their home when the show begins on Monday.

Contestants on the new series include Patsy Field (pictured), Mimii Ngulube, Ronnie Vint and Sam Taylor, who are hoping to find love this summer.
Executive producer Mike Spencer said: “We’re back in the same villa, but it’s taken a huge shine.” We have tried to create these new zones, so that everyone has a place and everything has a place.
‘Here’s an area of Miami that’s really cool and quirky. “We wanted to create an Instagram-worthy village, because it seemed right to do so.”
Introducing the new Hideaway rules, Mike continued: ‘The Hideaway has a new neon sign that says ‘No Invitation Needed’… So it could be the sexiest Love Island series ever created.
‘No invitation is needed to enter The Hideaway. “I think this series is really sexy anyway, but we’ll always accept more.”
Contestants on the new series include Patsy Field, 29, Mimii Ngulube, 24, Ronnie Vint, 27, and Sam Taylor, 23, who are hoping to find love in Mallorca this summer.
But don’t expect a surprising twist during the first episode, with a new ‘game’ teased by the producers, which could see an islander stranded just hours after arriving.
Mike said: “Audiences want to be entertained throughout the series and it’s good to keep things fresh and keep everyone on their toes and remind them that they’re here to find love.”
‘We have also changed the format of the first day and there will be something very new, it will not be a public vote… but there will be a new way to unite our islanders. I hope it surprises the islanders, I don’t want to say too much, but there will be an element of a new game that will lead to their partners without them knowing.’
This year’s Love Island kitchen is sky blue and comes equipped with everything the islanders need to make breakfast for their partners.
Colorful beds line the bedroom, but the absence of closets gives the islanders more space than in previous years.
There is a yellow seating area bathed in Spanish sunlight where contestants can meet and tan.
The spectacular fire pit is back, where couples unite, islanders are abandoned and Maya reveals the results of the public vote.
Islanders often host dates in the kitchen, cooking for potential new love interests.
Inside the Hideaway is a swing covered in soft pink pillows, providing another intimate space for the cast to bond.
To ensure viewers don’t miss any of the action, the villa comes equipped with 74 cameras, the most ever seen on the show.
And MailOnline can confirm the series will run for eight weeks, giving islanders maximum time to explore their romantic connections.
The show’s host Maya Jama, 29, is hoping this season will be full of drama as she reflects on only presenting the franchise for the past year but has already completed four series.
She said: ‘I’m definitely here for the drama… it can’t be easy to navigate all the time, right? You need something to mess it up a little.
“Since I joined, this is my second year, but I feel like I’ve been here for 10… it’s my second time doing the summer, the four seasons I’ve worked on have been absolutely dramatic.”
Maya, who was a Love Island fan before presenting the show, confirmed she doesn’t contribute ideas to the format, cheekily saying it’s not in her job title, yet…
She said, ‘Do I have an impact? No, because then I’d get producer credits, right?
‘If I could, I would… but no, that’s not my job yet. I’m a fan of the show and I grew up a fan of reality TV, so maybe one day, never say never.’
Where the upstairs salon used to be, the cast has access to two hidden beds for when they’re in the doghouse.
Even the bathroom has been renovated, painted a new shade of moss green and decorated with plants.
The Hideaway includes a private hot tub, where former Islanders Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury once met.
Flamingos frolic in the villa’s new water fountains while the terrace is painted bright blue to create the illusion of an infinity pool.
As well as bright yellow sun loungers, a sky blue kitchen and the return of the spectacular bonfire, islanders can stay fit in the gym and escape any unwanted tension by sleeping in new beds.

The eleventh series of Love Island begins on Monday June 3 with 12 new singles hoping to find love in the villa.
But producer Mike has said the top islanders are yet to be announced and viewers should be prepared for explosive arrivals.
He said: “As we have shown over the last 10 series, we will always strive to have the most representative and diverse cast across the board and also in terms of regionality.”
‘The job roles, the people, we do it, and we will continue to do it, we have some incredible bombs coming. “We will continue to do what we do and we are excited to see who comes in.”
Love Island returns on Monday June 3 at 9pm on ITV1, ITV2, ITVX and STV
