"White Lotus" Season 4: Travel Inspiration

Megève

Zannier Hotels Le Chalet

Megève would be a great setting for "The White Lotus" Season 4, offering a blend of luxury, intrigue and breathtaking scenery. Nestled in the French Alps near Mont Blanc, this picturesque village is known for its upscale ambiance, attracting visitors seeking both relaxation and adventure. The Four Seasons Hotel Megève epitomizes alpine elegance and would provide an ideal backdrop for the show's signature blend of opulence and underlying tension (we all know the French give great side-eye!). Megève was already featured in "Emily in Paris" — could the next chapter of "The White Lotus" be next?

The French Alps are an incredible summer destination for families, offering the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation and natural beauty. In the summer, families can enjoy biking on scenic trails, hiking in flower-filled meadows and swimming in crystal-clear alpine lakes. Many nearby towns, like Chamonix and Annecy, host family-friendly events, open-air markets and offer activities like zip-lining, paragliding and even luge runs. 

Rates at the Four Seasons are more reasonable in the summer and there are lots of other nearby options, like Le Chalet, which offers a duplex suite (that sleeps four) for less than $700/night.

Marrakech

Four Seasons Marrakech

Marrakech would be an exceptional setting for "The White Lotus" Season 4, offering a captivating blend of luxury, cultural richness and cinematic allure. Can't you picture a day trip to the souk and haggling over the price to ship back an enormous rug? The city is renowned for its Moroccan architecture and Art Deco design, and the Four Seasons Resort Marrakech is set amidst lush gardens and offers panoramic views of the Atlas Mountains.

There are great options in various price points throughout Morocco, and this would make a fantastic family trip thanks to its rich culture, diverse landscapes and warm hospitality. Kids and adults can enjoy exploring ancient medinas, riding camels through the Sahara and wandering colorful souks full of spices, lanterns and handmade crafts. From the beaches of Essaouira to the mountains of the Atlas and the magic of Fez, there’s adventure, learning and relaxation for every age — plus plenty of tagine and mint tea to go around!

Lisbon

Lisbon

The Four Seasons Lisbon would offer stunning "White Lotus" scene locations, including a rooftop gym with panoramic city views, a huge indoor pool and a glamorous lobby and restaurant. Lisbon's grand tiled facades, winding alleyways and views over the Tagus River provide a visually stunning backdrop. The mix of tradition and revitalization, along with the tension between its laid-back vibe and rising international spotlight, creates the perfect atmosphere for "White Lotus"-style drama and secrets.

Lisbon is also a wonderful destination for a family trip, offering a mix of history, culture and fun that appeals to all ages. The city’s colorful streets, iconic yellow trams and scenic viewpoints keep kids engaged while adults soak in the charm and architecture. Families can explore historic castles like São Jorge, visit the interactive Oceanário de Lisboa — one of Europe's best aquariums — or take a short tram ride to the beach. Lisbon also has many wonderful five-star hotel options that are priced under $500 per night per room, making it a great affordable location for a summer family vacation.
