For the 2022 series, the hopeful singles have headed to a luxury villa in Santa Barbara, California. It makes for the perfect location for the fiery show as it's known for their year-round gorgeous weather and incredible views of the Pacific Ocean.

According to the show's release, the villa "sits on one of the most beautiful and historically significant sights in California. 

"Tucked between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, it has incredible panoramic views overlooking the Pacific Ocean featuring its own private and pristine beach. It is a private gated 214-acre oceanfront property."

"This villa features an 8-foot-high 80 ft long CATWALK, that continues onto a runway with reflecting pools on either side just to show off those hot bods as they arrive! As well as some very private nooks to sneak away to."

The locations have been different in each series. The first was located in Fiji, the second was in Las Vegas and the third was shot in Hawaii.
