Discover the breathtaking Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, the official hotel – filming location for The White Lotus Season 3. Explore the exclusive White Lotus Bar, Poolside Escape cabanas, and indulgent cocktails inspired by the hit HBO series
If there’s one thing HBO’s The White Lotus excels at—aside from its razor-sharp social satire—it’s choosing jaw-dropping filming locations. Season 1 took us to the idyllic shores of Maui, Season 2 seduced us with Sicily’s grandeur, and now, for Season 3, we’re whisked away to Thailand’s Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui. This slice of paradise is more than just a backdrop—it’s a character in its own right, offering tropical opulence, world-class service, and exclusive experiences designed to immerse guests in The White Lotus universe.
The
TheWhite Lotus Experience: A Cinematic Sanctuary
Perched on a secluded stretch of Koh Samui’s northwest coastline, Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui is the epitome of barefoot luxury. Villas—each with private infinity pools—are seamlessly integrated into lush tropical landscapes, offering panoramic views of the Gulf of Thailand. The resort’s architecture blends traditional Thai design with contemporary elegance, ensuring that guests feel both at home and transported to a faraway paradise.
Beyond its aesthetics, the resort is deeply committed to sustainability. Built with minimal environmental impact in mind, it has preserved over 850 coconut trees across its sprawling property. Whether lounging by the private beach, indulging in a treatment at The Secret Garden Spa, or dining at Koh Thai Kitchen, every corner of this resort exudes exclusivity and tranquility.
But let’s get to the real reason we’re all here—The White Lotus experience.
From Script to Sand: Filming The White Lotus 3 at Four Seasons Koh Samui
HBO’s award-winning series transforms this already-stunning resort into a world of intrigue, social commentary, and of course, scandal. Fans of the show will recognize several key areas featured throughout the season, including:
The Main Beach – Powdery white sands and crystal-clear waters make for the ultimate tropical escape.
Koh Thai Kitchen & Bar – The resort’s clifftop restaurant offers breathtaking views and the best in authentic Southern Thai cuisine.
The Spirit House – A sacred and peaceful space woven into the storyline, adding cultural authenticity to the show.
The Private Villas – The luxurious ocean-facing pool villas serve as the opulent accommodations for The White Lotus’ elite guests (and their inevitable drama).
The White Lotus Bar: A Cocktail Experience Like No Other
Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui has taken the White Lotus magic beyond the screen, launching The White Lotus Bar at CoCoRum. This exclusive pop-up pays tribute to the series with cocktails inspired by its iconic locations:
Pineapple Suite: A tropical masterpiece, paying homage to the lush flavors of Hawaii from Season 1.
The Lotus: A cocktail inspired by the romance of Sicily’s Taormina, featured in Season 2.
Coconut Paradise: A nod to the Thai tropics, blending the sweetness of coconut with the fragrant essence of pandan leaves.
Pair these handcrafted cocktails with light bites like Pomelo and Shrimp on Rice Crackers (Yam Som-O), Wagyu Beef Tostadas, and Grilled Tiger Prawn Tacos—all curated to reflect the international flavors of The White Lotus universe.
Poolside Escape: Relaxation Meets Hollywood Glamour
For a truly immersive experience, the resort has introduced The Poolside Escape Cabanas, inspired by The White Lotus. Available from February 17 to May 16, 2025, these lavish, private retreats allow guests to lounge in style while indulging in themed cocktails and light bites. Each cabana is designed to evoke the series’ signature blend of luxury and mystery, with plush seating, tropical decor, and an unparalleled view of the Gulf of Thailand.
Meanwhile, at the Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle, guests can take relaxation to new heights with bamboo-thicket cabanas, where they can sip on the rum-infused Amber Infusion or the refreshing Passion Wave, a coconut-passionfruit mocktail perfect for a tropical afternoon. For those heading to Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai, the Ratree Bar and Lounge offers yet another White Lotus-themed retreat, complete with the Local Basil Smash (gin-based) and the non-alcoholic Bazil Fizz, paired with light bites like Avocado Smash and Thai Spicy Mixed Fruit Salad.
