Maui's posh White Lotus Resort welcomes a new boatload of guests including honeymooners Shane and Alexandra, grieving daughter Tanya and the Mossbacher family. They are greeted by the staff, who are devoted to making their stay a memorable one. As the week progresses, an idyllic getaway begins to turn into a series of dark events that ends in murder.
Filming for season one took place in 2020 during the Covid pandemic. The Four Seasons was closed, which made commandeering the resort easy. The first season of The White Lotus was met with critical acclaim. The series won five out of its eleven Emmy nominations and was quickly renewed. The anthology series took place in Sicily for season two, Thailand for season three. Season four's location is still a mystery.
