The final episode of The White Lotus is finally upon us, and if you’re not quite ready to check out then we have good news.
Known for its jaw-dropping backdrop, the HBO murder-mystery has the nation in a chokehold, and you can now stay at one of the incredible hotels it’s filmed at for less than you'd think.
This year, the cult television programme was shot in several locations in Thailand, from Bang Kokto Phuket.

The location everyone is talking about right now? The luxury Anantara Bophut resort on the tropical island of Koh Samui, which is currently offering luxury stays from £206 ($270).

Which White Lotus scenes were filmed there?
Eye-catching enough to distract us from the unfolding drama, the five-star resort features in some memorable scenes from the third season of the show, including the jewellery store robbery and Belinda's steamy spa session with Pornchai; plus sweeping shots of the tree-lined entrance, employee parking lot, and hotel lobby.
What is there to do at the White Lotus hotel in Koh Samui?
If you can’t sit still, there’s plenty to keep you busy too, from tennis courts and water sports to a private beach and fitness centre.

But rest assured, you’ll find us at the spa, where there are six luxurious treatment rooms in total.
Set in the Gulf of Siam, there are 106 rooms in total, with some jaw-dropping suites and beachfront rooms on offer if you want to splash out.
And if you're really feeling fancy, you can even stay at the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, where season three of The White Lotus is also filmed. It's currently available to book now via the Kayak website.
How to get to Koh Samui
Thailand's second-largest island lies in the Gulf of Thailand, just off the east coast of the mainland.

It has its own airport with international flights to China, Hong Kong and Singapore, so if you're coming from further afield you'll most likely be looking at a stopover in one of these or Bangkok.
If you're hoping for a spot of sunbathing you may want to avoid monsoon season, which runs between July and October.
The cheapest time to book is May, so you'll be basking in the sun sooner than you thought.
See you there?
