MAYA Jama has whisked herself away to a five-star luxury retreat ahead of her time on Love Island.

The TV host is getting ready for a new summer of love and chaos, and with just two weeks until the ITV2 series launches, she has taken some pals off to the south of France.

Maya and her pals are staying at the Lily Of The Valley resort in Saint-Tropez, a stunning resort dedicated to wellness, weight loss and sport.

The hotel boasts stunning viewers of the Cap Lardier estate, a “green lung” of the French Riviera.

Just a stone’s throw away from a picture-perfect beach, a night at the resort sets you back at least €3,200 (£2,700) a night.

Once there you can sign up to four-day detox course, which Maya is believed to be on.

They also offer a course to focus on weight-loss, sport or a set of treatments that helps you prevent aging.

Maya is clearly feeling a lot more relaxed as a result of the stay, taking the time to chill out and read by the poolside in a bikini.

The getaway comes shortly after she was named a new addition to the advisory committee of the British Fashion Council.

In a video after the announcement, Maya told her followers on Instagram Stories: “I actually realised I don’t make a big enough deal about these new and exciting things, maybe because I feel I’m in everyone’s face so I’m like…”

“But actually, celebrate every win, and that is a really big deal so I’ll do a proper post about it later. I just took it off my story if you saw it, but good stuff’s happening. Beautiful things.”

“That’s why I’ve come here, to just zen before the hecticness of Love Island and busy life again. Relalign. Smooth. Pure,” she smiled. “And then I can be the best version… if any of that made sense!”

In another clip of the trip, Maya and a friend are seen sitting at a table and sharing a toast with a glass of wine.

Maya can be heard saying “cheers, honey” as musicians perform and she overlooks the ocean.

Love Island will be back in business on June 3, where she will head to Mallorca to welcome this year’s islanders to the villa they’ll call home for the summer.

She also was pulled into host spin-off Love Island Games last year.
