Season 1 brought viewers to the White Lotus luxury resort in Hawaii, followed by Season 2 in Italy. Season 3 explores the tropical Thailand island of Ko Samui, starting Feb. 16 (HBO 9 EST/PST, and streaming on Max).

From there, the episode dials back a week, as the season’s principal players arrive to their modern Fantasy Island-like resort. Just as before, “White Lotus” mastermind Mike White introduces a bevy of new characters, and while they all seem easy to read at first, make no mistake – there’s definitely more lurking underneath here.
