Book one of these hotels and all that’s left to do is pack your best resort wear and prepare to live out your very own luxury drama (minus the backstabbing, hopefully).
Season three of The White Lotus is dropping on 16 February, and you know what that means: more drama, more chaos and — most importantly — more jaw-dropping luxury hotels that make us want to pack our bags immediately.
This time, the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui is playing host to the fictional White Lotus, bringing all the tropical opulence you’d expect from the hit HBO series. But with prices starting at over £1,000 per night, most of us will have to live that fantasy from our sofas.
But don’t despair, jet-setters! L360 spoke to the travel experts at Hotels.com to find some seriously stunning alternatives that bring the same White Lotus energy — without breaking the bank.
Whether you’re here for the infinity pools, dreamy spas or the ultimate beachside bliss, these hotels serve luxury dupes that are just as Instagram-worthy.
