Production

Development and filming

In March 2013, ABC canceled Bachelor Pad after three seasons.[1] Very similar to Bachelor Pad, rejected contestants from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette are isolated in a romantic paradise in an exotic tropical destination.[2] The first season was filmed in Tulum, Mexico. Beginning in season 2, the show has been filmed in Sayulita, Mexico at Playa Escondida.

The show begins with an uneven number of women and men, with there being more women. At the first rose ceremony, the six men are given a rose to hand out to a woman they’d like to spend more time getting to know in paradise. The women left without roses are immediately sent home. New men are then brought to the beach, so at the next rose ceremony, women can give a rose to a man they'd like to spend more time with and the remaining men are sent home. For seven weeks, this set up alternates between new men or new women joining the cast.

ABC renewed Bachelor in Paradise for a sixth season on February 5, 2019.[3]

On August 5, 2019, the series was renewed for a seventh season, and was postponed till 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic; however, the production dates are affected with the international travel restrictions as it will be part for the 2020–21 television schedule.[4][5]
