Where is Temptation Island located?

The couples and singles soak up the sun and sand on the Island of Hawai’i, where the series was filmed. 

What are the rules in Temptation Island, and how does it work? 

Well, technically, there are no rules, but most couples set their own boundaries around what they can  — and perhaps more importantly — cannot do during their time on the island. On Temptation Island, the couples are separated when they arrive,  but they will find out if their partners break their carnal codes of conduct. Throughout the journey, the men and women attend a series of bonfires, where they discuss their personal progress with host Mark L. Walberg, and watch selected clips of their partners’ experiences on the other side of the island. 

The only place they can avoid having their slip-ups fully exposed is inside the Temptation Haven. Halfway through the experiment, the islanders are given the opportunity to explore temptation more fully with the introduction of these two private huts located on the grounds of both the men’s and women’s villas. There aren’t any cameras in the Temptation Havens. But if someone enters one, a bright red light will go off at the other villa. Everyone will know the haven’s being used, but they won’t know by whom, so let the spiraling commence.
