The White Lotus is already the talk of the town in the US. Viewers and critics can't resist the vacation black comedy and all of its drama. Meddling mothers-in-law! Family secrets! Jennifer Coolidge! Oh my.
Now fans globally will be able to take advantage of the dramedy and revel in all of its quirkiness. Here's how to catch the HBO Max hit before The White Lotus season 2 gifts us with another tropical getaway gone wrong.
The limited series (just six episodes) follows super-rich vacationers who are attempting to escape their realities—be it a cancer diagnosis or the loss of a parent—at a luxurious Hawaiian resort. We watch as their island holidays intertwine with one another and the (extremely) put-upon hotel staff. It's also a whodunnit—a guessing game of who's in the casket that's being loaded onto the airplane at the very start of the season opener. Ready to learn more about the much-buzzed-about hit series?

Sure, these vacationers might've made their way to paradise, but the decadent Hawaiian resort is actually the furthest thing from bliss. You'll see why below.
Where was The White Lotus filmed?
According to Vox, the miniseries was filmed at the Four Seasons resort in Maui.
Will there be a season 2 of White Lotus?
You're in luck! The dramedy will return for a follow-up season, though you might not experience the same locale and characters on the next go-around.
"It would have to be a different hotel, like, say, The White Lotus: San Tropez or something," creator Mike White revealed to TVLine.
For the time being, we're comfortable hanging out in Maui!
