​Mike White's Emmy®-winning series returns for Season 2, following various hotel guests over the span of a week – but with each passing day, a darker side of the picture-perfect travelers, hotel employees, and idyllic locale emerges. Now in their Sicily location, the White Lotus welcomes two couples trying to decide if they're friends or frenemies; a three-generation Italian American family exploring their Sicilian roots; and a White Lotus VIP (Emmy® winner Jennifer Coolidge) traveling with her husband (and assistant) in tow. Behind the scenes, the hotel's professional but prickly manager tries to keep two young locals – each striving to get ahead by different means – out of her luxury establishment.
