The debut was on 5 December 2011. A second season followed on 5 November 2012 with a third starting on 26 August 2013 and a fourth 25 August 2014. Season 2 also had an offshoot called L'Île des vérités 2, Le Mag, but was suspended after just one season because of poor viewership figures. Starting season 2, the show was hosted by Alexandre Taliercio.

The program took Au paradis, leur vie va basculer meaning in paradise their lives would be tipped over, as their activities included a great number of voluntary and benevolent acts in what is specified in season 1 as Moorea island in French Polynesia. In later seasons, a more general Tahiti is used.
