While The White Lotus is fiction, the stunning resorts where it was filmed are very real—and yes, you can actually stay at them. Each season was shot at a Four Seasons property, capturing the specific luxury aesthetic that defines the show.
Season 1: Four Seasons Maui
The Original White Lotus
Season 1 was filmed at the Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea. The property's lush grounds, ocean views, and pristine pools became instantly iconic.
After the show aired, bookings at the resort increased significantly. The hotel has embraced its fame, though staff probably wince when guests make Armond jokes.
Season 2: San Domenico Palace
The Sicilian Backdrop
Season 2 used the San Domenico Palace in Taormina, a former 14th-century monastery turned luxury hotel. The ancient architecture provided a stark contrast to the modern dysfunction of the guests.
The hotel's cliffside location and views of Mount Etna created some of the most visually stunning moments in the series.
Season 3: Four Seasons Koh Samui
The Thailand Setting
Season 3 filmed at the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, known for its private villas and wellness facilities. The resort's focus on spa treatments and spiritual experiences perfectly matched the season's themes.
The setting's natural beauty—tropical forests, private beaches, stunning sunsets—provided ironic contrast to the ugly behavior of the guests.
