Plot Synopsis

RENOVATION ISLAND is a reality series that follows Bryan and Sarah Baeumler, as they pack up their family and move to a tropical island with the dream to renovate a massive, rundown beachfront resort in The Bahamas. Bryan, a licensed contractor, and Sarah, with her keen sense of design aesthetics, transform the abandoned 10-acre property into a world-class island oasis complete with 18 luxurious hotel rooms, 22 ocean front villas and a host of breezy resort amenities. With an eye toward a grand re-opening for prime tourist season, Bryan and Sarah, along with their small staff, tackle a massive list of construction and design projects that must be completed within a tight six-month timeline. And, renovating a full-service restaurant, club house, spa, in-ground pool and bar is no easy feat if they want to open and welcome guests on time. In the premiere episode, the family bids an emotional farewell to their familiar home and life. As the tremendous resort renovation begins, the island's tropical weather, wildlife and remote location are just a few of the challenges the family must navigate as they adjust to life in a new country. Throughout the season, Bryan and Sarah are determined to realize their dream of reviving the tropical paradise despite the roller coaster ride of emotions that comes with a seemingly impossible timeline, a maxed budget and unexpected issues such as extensive rust and termite damage in every building as well as the threat of a hurricane mid-reno. After debuting in Canada with the title ISLAND OF BRYAN, this series had its U.S. premiere on Sunday, June 7, 2020 at 8pm ET/PT on HGTV, airing as RENOVATION ISLAND.
