11 Stunning White Lotus Filming Spots You Can Actually Stay At

6. Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui (Thailand — Season 3)

The Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui serves as the main filming location for Season 3, providing the ultimate luxury experience in one of Thailand’s most breathtaking destinations. Located on the northwestern tip of Koh Samui, this secluded retreat offers white-sand beaches, private infinity pools, and stunning views of the Gulf of Thailand. Unlike the more crowded tourist areas of Koh Samui, this resort is designed for exclusivity and relaxation, making it the perfect setting for the drama and opulence that define The White Lotus. Guests stay in spacious private villas, each featuring an outdoor sala (pavilion), a private infinity pool, and floor-to-ceiling glass windows that open up to lush jungle views or the ocean. For those looking to explore beyond the resort, private boat tours to Ang Thong National Marine Park—a collection of 42 islands with limestone cliffs, caves, and lagoons—are easily arranged. The resort’s location also allows easy access to nearby waterfalls, elephant sanctuaries, and cultural sites. Stay like a VIP: Book the Beachfront Pool Villa ($2,500+/night) for direct access to the ocean, a private infinity pool, and a large sundeck with panoramic sea views. Rates: $800 – $2,500 per night, depending on the season and villa selection.
