As always, stars in the 2025 series are staying in the swanky Villa in Mallorca, on the east coast of the island in Sant Llorenç des Cardassar.
But it had undergone a makeover for the tenth year anniversary to make sure it's bigger than ever with glam touch-ups.
This year, there is a new, supersized hideaway, walk-in wardrobes, an exercise bike and a steamy hot tub beside the huge pool.
A purple theme has also been added and extended through to the fire pit, while the rooms have been touched up with gold furnishings.

Interior experts have revealed that there are a few clever design choices that will
serve up a vibe that's trendy and timeless
.

for anyone who loves the popular ITV show.

Go bright or go home
Lucy has said that an essential tip for nailing the Love Island look at home is by pairing bright whites with pops of bold colour.
She explained: "The interior of the Villa uses lots of brilliant whites as an easy backdrop for the bursts of fun colours throughout the space.

"Regularly using bold pinks, blues and butter yellows in the colour scheme of the Villa makes for a fun and playful aesthetic.
"If you already have neutral walls at home, you can achieve this by using the iconic colour trio to paint feature walls.

"Or simply coat doorframes and mirror frames for an instant refresh."
Firepit drama
No Love Island-inspired garden would be complete without the legendary fire pit.
So if you want to recreate the look of the Villa in your own space, then you definitely need to pick up one of these.

Lucy said: "This is an absolute must for the home, and it's actually fairly cheap to recreate.
"In more basic styles, you can get a fire pit for as little as £20 in standard retailers like B&Q.
"For a full-on Love Island garden vibe, add string fairy lights, sun loungers, and a splattering of colour-blocked cushions in the same
blue
,
pink
and yellow colour scheme.
"You may also want to coordinate the colour of your outdoor furniture with natural wood and whites.

"An easy way to achieve this cohesive look without splashing the cash is by painting your existing garden furniture with exterior paint, helping you stay loyal to the look."

Pop art inspo
This is a fairly new one, but
pop
art goes perfectly with the theme of the Love Island Villa.
Lucy advises: "Pop art was introduced to the design of the Villa fairly recently, and it works perfectly with the colour scheme throughout.

"Pop art prints are relatively low cost, or you could DIY your own to give your space a cheeky, flirtatious edge.
"Pop Art is a great way to add the Love Island look to your casa at a low cost.
"And it can also be easily changed in the future to new and exciting art pieces."
The five colours that are becoming outdated in 2025
IT'S important to make sure that when you update your space, you create a look that won't quickly become outdated.
With that in mind, interior designers have revealed the five colours that are beginning to fade now that we are halfway into 2025.
Interior pro Paulina Wojas from
Emerald Green
- "While this colour is still loved for its luxe vibe, its declining popularity could be due to it being oversaturated".
Camel
- "This could be due to Camel's brown-yellow undertone that may be too warm for a clean aesthetic, and 2025 interior trends favouring more muted, earthy tones such as taupe and olive.'
Burgundy
- "A prominent trend this year is open, airy spaces with organic elements, which could explain burgundy's declining demand".
Scarlet Red
- "While its vibrant hue is desirable for maximalist interiors, scarlet red's intensity can become overpowering, resulting in colour fatigue.
Teal
- "While this aquatic shade is still desirable and perfect for coastal, Greek-inspired interiors, the low number of teal sales could be due to changing preferences and trends shifting towards warmer colour palettes.'
I've got a text… it says you need neon!
According to the experts, anyone looking to bring the vibe of the Villa into their home needs to bring in touches of neon.

Lucy explains: "Neon lights are an absolute must-have to achieve the Love Island look at home.
"Think playful phrases, a neon heart above your bed, or a cheeky cocktail sign for the garden.
"Neon is glam, Insta-ready, and surprisingly affordable.

"Plus, it'll give your space that unmistakable glow.

Now, host Joel Dommett has posted an update revealing that it has gone for good. Former I'm A Celebrity star Joel, 40, said: 'It just shows you how nothing is a given in telly. 'I thought Survivor would be huge. I thought that would be my job for the next 20 years. 'I've done shows and thought that's not coming back and it keeps coming back and then you do something like Survivor, which you think is guaranteed and it doesn't come back.' The format is a huge hit across the world, particularly in the US where it was aired for 25 years. It involves contestants being marooned in a remote location where they compete in challenges to win rations, supplies and rewards, plus immunity from elimination. ITV launched a UK version in 2001, hosted by Mark Austin and then Mark Nicholas, but it folded after just two series. However, the BBC was confident that, more than two decades on, it was worth giving it another go. The latest version, filmed in the Dominican Republic in the summer of 2023 was said to have cost £30million to make.

'After a year of speculation that the BBC's remake was facing the chop, it's now official. 'It's looking like TV's most expensive flop ever.' However, Joel remains one of TV's most popular presenters and will soon be seen hosting next month's National Television Awards on ITV. He is also part of ITV's new show, Celebrity Sabotage.

Emmerdale's Joe Absolom wins huge jackpot with seconds to spare on Celebrity Catchphrase – did you get it before him?

EMMERDALE'S Joe Absolom bagged an incredible jackpot on Celebrity Catchphrase - but did you beat him to it? The soap star, 46, had just seconds left to answer his last crucial puzzle. 4 Emmerdale's Joe Absolom won big on Celeb Catchphrase - but it came down to the wire Credit: ITV 4 He was stumped on this tricky final puzzle - but did you solve it before Joe? Credit: ITV 4 Joe is currently playing Emmerdale baddie Ray Walters Credit: ITV Joe defeated Alex Beresford and Sarah-Jane Crawford to reach the final round. He made light work of the ITV show's pyramid - with 29 seconds remaining to answer the £50,000 Catchphrase. At this point, Joe hit a stumbling block as he tried to work out the last puzzle. It first showed various shops, with stop signs on display in the window. The key focus was "Sign World", which had a single stop sign and an arrow pointing to it. Joe initially guessed "Stop sign" and "Only a stop sign", as the clock ticked away. With only four seconds left, the actor correctly answered "One stop shop." It meant Joe scooped £50,000 for his charity - as well as £6,700 he won in earlier rounds. Host Stephen Mulhern said: "Do you know what, that is incredible. Wow, I have never seen it done like that." Joe then revealed he couldn't wait to share the good news with his charity. Ricky Wilson misses out on huge jackpot as he struggles through Celebrity Catchphrase final - would you have done better He joined the Emmerdale cast this year, playing shady new bad guy Ray Walters. Introduced with connections to Mackenzie (Lawrence Robb), it was revealed he would be involved with Dylan (Fred Kettle). Speaking at the time of his casting, Joe shared: "Well what an honour to join such a talented team at Emmerdale! "It's an iconic show and I'm grateful to be part of it." He added: "I can't wait to see what's in stock for Ray!' Hardest Quiz Show Questions Would you know the answers to some of quizzing TV's hardest questions Who Wants To Be A Millionaire - Earlier this year, fans were left outraged after what they described as the "worst" question in the show's history. Host Jeremy Clarkson asked: 'From the 2000 awards ceremony onwards, the Best Actress Oscar has never been won by a woman whose surname begins with which one of these letters?' The multiple choice answers were between G, K, M and W. In the end, and with the £32,000 safe, player Glen had to make a guess and went for G. It turned out to be correct as Nicole Kidman, Frances McDormand and Kate Winslet are among the stars who have won the Best Actress gong since 2000. - Earlier this year, fans were left outraged after what they described as the "worst" question in the show's history.

The 1% Club - Viewers of Lee Mack's popular ITV show were left dumbfounded by a question that also left the players perplexed. The query went as follows: "Edna's birthday is on the 6th of April and Jen's birthday falls on the 15th of October, therefore Amir's birthday must be the 'X' of January." It turns out the conundrum links the numbers with its position in the sentence, so 6th is the sixth word and 15th is the fifteenth word. Therefore, Amir's birthday is January 24th, corresponding to the 24th word in the sentence. - Viewers of Lee Mack's popular ITV show were left dumbfounded by a question that also left the players perplexed.

The Chase - The ITV daytime favourite left fans scratching their heads when it threw up one of the most bizarre questions to ever grace the programme. One of the questions asked the player: "Someone with a nightshade intolerance should avoid eating what?" The options were - sweetcorn, potatoes, carrots - with Steve selecting sweetcorn but the correct answer was potatoes. Long-time soap fans will remember Joe as EastEnders' Matthew Rose from 1997 to 2000. The character feuded with Steve Owen (Martin Kemp) - who memorably framed him for murder. Elsewhere, Joe recently shared a difference between working on the two soaps. Celebrity Catchphrase airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
