Where Should the Next Season of The White Lotus Be Filmed? These Inspirato Destinations Would Be Perfect 

Since its debut, The White Lotus has captivated audiences with its razor-sharp satire, lush cinematography, and of course, its dreamlike (and drama-filled) settings. From Hawaii to Sicily, each season has transformed luxury resorts into unforgettable characters in their own right. If HBO is on the hunt for the next head-turning backdrop, we’ve got a few suggestions—handpicked from Inspirato’s meticulously curated portfolio of global destinations. These stunning locales don’t just offer striking scenery—they’re brimming with the intrigue, opulence, and eccentric charm that make The White Lotus so binge-worthy. 

Here are our top picks for where the next season should unfold:

Lake Como, Italy

For Euro-chic Drama by the Water

There’s something inherently cinematic about Lake Como—where the Alps meet aristocratic glamour and old-money secrets seem to echo off the water. Inspirato’s villas in Lake Como offer sweeping lake views, manicured gardens, and a timeless elegance that’s practically begging for slow-motion scenes of martinis on the terrace. It’s the kind of place where affairs simmer, alliances form over candlelit dinners, and nothing is quite as it seems.

Mykonos, Greece

Sun-Soaked Opulence with a Hint of Chaos

Picture this: blinding white buildings, sapphire seas, and a beach club where the DJ never stops. Mykonos is wild, windswept, and irresistible. Inspirato’s eight-bedroom waterfront villa, Calliope, is big enough to house an entire cast of glamorous guests, each bringing their own drama to the party. With its vibrant nightlife and island mystique, Mykonos is ideal for a season dripping in scandal and high-stakes indulgence. 

Charleston, South Carolina

Southern Charm with a Gothic Twist

If The White Lotus ever wanted to explore American luxury with a historical edge, Charleston would be the perfect setting. Inspirato’s residences place guests in the heart of antebellum beauty and cobblestone streets. Beneath the polite smiles and sweet tea lies a world of old family money, veiled rivalries, and secrets passed down through generations. Think Spanish moss, ghost stories, and a murder mystery steeped in Southern decorum. 

Marrakech, Morocco

Exotic Splendor Meets Cultural Collision

While not part of the core Inspirato home portfolio, this location is available as part of Inspirato Only Experiences—and it would be a showstopper. Marrakech dazzles with its riads, vibrant souks, and desert mystique. Imagine the White Lotus cast navigating cultural clashes, luxury hammams, and rooftop dinners under Moroccan stars. The city’s intoxicating contrast between ancient tradition and modern excess is ripe for tension—and unforgettable television.

Provence, France

Lavender Fields and Hidden Lives

In the heart of the French countryside lies a world of slow-living, Michelin stars, and a deceptively peaceful pace. Inspirato’s Maison du Calavon offers the ideal Provençal escape for a cast of jaded expats, Instagram influencers, and mysterious locals. Here, the drama unfolds as slowly as a glass of rosé on a warm summer evening—but the stakes are as high as ever. 

Aspen, Colorado

Après-Ski Secrets in the Snow

Swap bikinis for fur-trimmed parkas—Aspen brings icy luxury and simmering tension. Inspirato’s private homes and chalets offer firelit lounges, hot tubs with mountain views, and ski-in/ski-out opulence. Cold weather, colder shoulders. Perfect for a chilling plot twist. 

Punta Mita, Mexico

Luxury on the Edge

Tucked on Mexico’s Pacific Coast, Inspirato’s homes in Punta Mita redefine beachfront luxury. It’s the perfect mix of seclusion and sophistication. Picture opulent oceanfront estates, golf carts zipping through palm-lined paths, and guests who came to disconnect but can’t escape their baggage. With waves crashing outside and tequila flowing inside, every sunset comes with a twist.
