Taormina, Sicily, Italy

Ok, so if you loved The White Lotus Season 2 as much as I did, you must get yourself to Sicily in 2023. My favorite town there is Taormina — and in sheer congruence, that’s where the show filmed too. Hang out at the beach or take the funicular up to the medieval town, full of medieval architecture housing lively shops and restaurants, alongside views of the sea and Mount Etna. 

If you want to be like Portia, Tanya, Cameron, and Harper, along with the rest of the main characters staying here, you should book the Four Seasons San Domenico Palace (the set of The White Lotus Season 2). That said, if you want it to be you and your partner (or solely your group of friends), book a villa with The Thinking Traveller — their historic villa La Prora is one of my favorites, with its stately gardens and heated pool that peers out at Mount Etna.
