Fantasy Island
Dreams-come-true resort
Fantasy Island is an imaginary place of wish fulfillment, from the 1977–84 television series where guests paid to live out their fantasies on a tropical island.
The phrase now describes any unrealistic scenario or place where someone expects all their desires to come true: If you think this job is going to be easy, you're living on Fantasy Island.
