Traumatizing an entire population of crabs who are forced to watch strangers make out in their literal home. And above all else, those daybeds that have truly SEEN SOME THINGS. But this season is looking a little different, mostly because the show ditched its longtime filming location in Mexico and moved to Costa Rica's Azura Beach Resort. And fans who are fond of the show's iconic original location aren't exactly thrilled. I miss the little crabs they show in between different segments ☹️#BachelorInParadisepic.twitter.com/VUPBnOXRmT — here 4 the wrong reasons (@here4thewrgrsn)July 15, 2025 Reject modernity, embrace tradition#bachelorinparadisepic.twitter.com/wmBA9idzHH — nat 🧜🏼♀️ (@natalie_marina)July 8, 2025 So, why the move? There are several reasons, and chief among them is the need for air conditioning and elevators now that the Goldens are on the show. "All of those things went into the thought behind going to Costa Rica and finding somewhere different," showrunner Scott Teti toldVariety. "It was a great experience. I think the hotel and the vibe of everything feels a little chicer and more elevated. There's air conditioning! So if the cast is happier, you're going to get a better response. And I think the response was extremely positive with their experience." Scott also toldEntertainment Weeklythat "I think the drive to move was based on shaking things up stylistically with a new vibe and a new kind ofParadise. This also is very production friendly. It's a very private beach. It's very secluded, but it also has the ability for our production to stay on one side of the sister hotel, and the newer portion of the Azuara Beach Resort, where we will be filming, is right next door. It's this beautiful hot, new location." Kay! You Might Also Like Here's What NOT to Wear to a Wedding Meet the Laziest, Easiest Acne Routine You'll Ever Try
