Who is hosting summer Love Island 2024?

Maya Jama will return to host the summer season of Love Island in 2024, after kicking off the year with All Stars just months prior.

Maya has been the new face of Love Island since Laura Whitmore stepped away in 2022.

Her bubbly personality and ability to playfully jab at the housemates has been very enjoyable to watch so far, so it would come as a shock and surprise if the show suddenly decided to replace her.

Speaking to Vogue in January last year, Maya said "I’ve been a fan of the show pretty much since it started… I know everything about it. My role is to deliver information and facts but, because I love it so much, I just want to be their best mate and be like, ‘Are you sure you really like that guy?'"

Where is the summer Love Island 2024 villa?

The summer Love Island 2024 location is in Mallorca Spain. The show has now consecutively filmed their two winter seasons in South Africa and all their summer seasons have been in Mallorca.

The cast will use the same villa that featured in last year's summer season and the season before, after ITV found a new, bigger location for the 2022 series.
