Love Sanctuary is a Vitosian dating reality series on EBTV.

The success of the show spawned international versions located in Durnstaal and Rumaztria.

Format

Love Sanctuary involves a group of contestants, referred to as Islanders, living in isolation from the outside world in a villa in TBA, constantly under video surveillance. To survive in the villa, the Islanders must be coupled up with another Islander, whether it be for love, friendship or money, as the overall winning couple receives VTM$500,000. On the first day, the Islanders couple up for the first time based on first impressions, but over the duration of the series they are forced to "re-couple" where they can choose to remain in their current couple or swap and change.

Any Islander who remains single after the coupling is eliminated and dumped from the island. Islanders can also be eliminated via public vote, as during the series the public vote through the Love Island app available on smartphones for their favourite couple, or who they think is the most compatible. Couples who receive the fewest votes risk being eliminated. Often a twist has occurred where it has been up to the Islanders to eliminate couples. During the final week, the public vote for which couple they want to win the series and therefore take home VTM$500,000.
