Throughout the series, the contestants "couple up" to avoid being dumped from the villa. Additionally, the Maltese vote for their favourite islanders via the Love Island Malta app^[1]. As islanders are dumped from the villa, new islanders enter the villa, either as bombshells or as part of a twist. At the end of each season, the Maltese vote to determine the winning couple, who win a prize of €20,000.
