The quirky ABC sitcom ‘Fantasy Island’ was known for its great premise.
It also had thin plotlines and an abundance of SEXY GUEST STARS.
Fantasy Island aired on the ABC television network from 1977 to 1984. The series starred Ricardo Montalbán as the mysterious Mr. Roarke and Hervé Villechaize as his assistant Tattoo. Guests were granted so-called “fantasies” on the island for a price.
Today, we’re going to count down the most glamorous women to ever appear on Fantasy Island.
Let’s Meet The Sexy Guest Stars:
10. Kim Lankford (Knots Landing)
The first two time guest star on our list, Kim Lankford acted in a number of TV shows and movies. She also dated Warren Zevon before retiring from film. She now runs a horse business in Colorado, leaving behind the glamorous life she lived from the 70’s all the way until the early 2000’s.
9. Rita Jenrette (Real Estate Executive)
Rita Jenrette had a busy career. She made her appearance on Fantasy Island in 1982 during the show’s 5th season. She also posed for playboy, had a music career, was the wife of a congressman and acted in a variety of different projects, before retiring in 1990 to successfully pursue a business career.
8. Barbara Luna (Star Trek)
Star of the stage and screen, the beautiful Barbara Luna appeared in 3 episodes of Fantasy Island. Two of her appearances were in the show’s third season, and the other came during season 6.

The ultimate socialite, Eva Gabor was an instantly recognizable public figure from the moment she left Hungary for the United States. She produced beauty products, appeared in a variety of TV shows and movies and even hosted her own talk show in the 1950’s.
Even though her appearance on Fantasy Island came after her prime, the massive amounts of fame that she gained over her lifetime make her an easy choice.
6. Sherry Jackson (The Danny Thomas Show)
This beautiful brunette was thrust into the public eye as a child actress, and stayed there until the early 80’s. Regarded as one of the most beautiful women in show business during the late ’60s and early ’70s, she was at her peak when she appeared as Monica Jensen in season 2 of Fantasy Island.
