Thailand’s White Lotus hotel is open for 2025 bookings (and it’s cheaper than you think)
We have been glued to season three of The White Lotus for one reason in particular, and it has nothing to do with murder, money or even those steamy sex scenes.
We’re talking about the jaw-dropping filming destination, of course.
Set in Thailand, the HBO hit transports viewers to a luxury hotel set amid lush, tropical landscape, and it looks like something out of a travel brochure. The best part? You can stay there for less than $150 a night...

And we're not the only ones left daydreaming, as Google Trends reported a whopping 140% increase in search for the incredible filming location of Koh Samui after episode one aired, with travellers left inspired by the onscreen destination.
So, what if we told you that a holiday at the exact hotel where White Lotus season 3 was filmed is far cheaper than you think?
From where The White Lotus season three is filmed to how you can stay at the hotel for less and how to book, find out everything you need to know below.
Where was The White Lotus season 3 filmed?
The White Lotus is filmed in several locations in Thailand, from Koh Samui to Phuket. The location on everyone's lips at the moment? The luxury Anantara Bophut Koh Samui resort, of course. Die-hard fans of the show may recognise the hotel in several scenes, including the jewelry store robbery to Belinda and Pornchai's flirtatious spa experience.
Its sister resort, Anantara Lawana, was also used as a filming location for season three, and you may recognise the Singing Bird Lounge, a treehouse-style bar that stars in the small-screen series.
Hidden beneath the lush canopy of a 120-year-old tree, the Singing Bird Lounge is a tropical haven for pre-dinner aperitifs, and offers a bird’s-eye view of Koh Samui’s incredible landscape.
In celebration of the show's success, you can even order the resort's new Anantara White Lotus Mirage, a bespoke creation made in honour of the popular series.
The gateway to the Gulf of Siam, the Anantara Bophut Koh Samui resort is renowned for its sprawling gardens, sunlit suites, and palm-fringed pools.
There are hundreds of rooms to choose from, whether you’re dreaming of a secret hideaway for two, a luxurious family suite, or beachfront villa with a private plunge pool. The hardest decision you'll have to make? Choosing where to stay.
