The White Lotus has never been shy about showing off jaw-dropping vacation settings, but Season 3 took things to a whole new level — thanks in part to a sprawling, ultra-luxury villa perched above Phuket’s coastline.
And here’s the wild part: the place isn’t just TV magic. The real villa — Villa Amaravida in Cape Yamu — is now being exclusively marketed by Feroz Taj of The Agency Beverly Hills, and fans can book a stay starting at $5,700 to $13,650 per night.
The property is already one of Thailand’s most spectacular high-end rentals, but its cameo as Greg Hunt’s shady Season 3 hideaway has officially pushed it into cult-location territory.
Long-time viewers met Greg back in Hawaii as the mild-mannered government worker. Season 3 reintroduces him under a new name — Gary — now wealthy, paranoid, and hiding out from American authorities in a tropical mansion that seems specifically designed for dramatic monologues and strategic lies.
Villa Amaravida served as the larger of the two villas used for Greg/Gary’s compound, and it’s now stepping into the real-world spotlight — and the details are bonkers.
Quick specs: what Villa Amaravida actually offers
- 8 bedrooms
- 8,000 sqm (over 86,000 sq ft) of interior + exterior living

The villa’s star turn on The White Lotus
Season 3 leans heavily on the villa’s visual drama — huge carved doors, cathedral-like ceilings, and that wide-open living room that frames the Andaman Sea like it’s a screensaver.
Production used Amaravida for some of Greg/Gary’s tensest scenes, with filming taking place across the main living pavilion, the lap pool, and those panoramic terraces where every confrontation hits harder.
In a season filled with opulent settings, this villa stands out as the clearest symbol of Greg’s newly acquired wealth — and his questionable choices.
One of two Thai villas used for Greg’s luxe digs
When filming Season 3, the production crew shared that the house is actually two locations masquerading as one (a choice that tracks for a guy with an assumed identity).
The other shooting location for Greg’s abode, a modernist hilltop retreat near Koh Samui’s Chaweng Beach known as Samujana Villa 12, is also available to rent, the New York Post reports. That one too has standout specs like seven bedrooms and a wide pool stacked like white shoe boxes on the face of a hill.
A design that skews Scandinavian–tropical with Thai architectural nods
The first impression sets the tone: walkways floating over water leading to a modern interpretation of a Thai gabled-roof entrance. Inside, the design flips to a clean, Scandinavian feel with full-length windows, oversized glass panels, and dramatic art.
Timber floors and wooden-clad ceilings carve out distinct zones without ever breaking the openness.
Featuring a massive living room with a timber gabled roof
The living room is a highlight — a massive space with a timber gabled roof, marble pillars, and sculptural lighting that feels both grand and relaxed.
Wide-open living with games, lounge zones, and breezy communal areas
The main lounge opens straight to a terrace through wall-to-wall glass. A pool table anchors one side of the room, foosball sits on the other, and everything is designed for easy movement indoors and out.
The atmosphere leans into vacation mode: unfussy, sociable, and loaded with spots to flop down and unwind.
Over-the-top amenities that run from cinema to spa
The amenity list reads like something even a mega-yacht would envy. There’s a professional gym, a full spa, a steam room, and a private cinema perfect for midday matinees when the sun gets too aggressive.
The games room leans into indulgence too — think golf simulator and even a tiny wine-cellar-style tasting nook.
It’s very Hollywood hideaway energy — fitting for a villa that spent a full season in the HBO spotlight.
Multiple kitchens and dining setups for big gatherings
There’s an indoor dining area large enough for a formal dinner and comfortable enough for casual meals. A show kitchen anchors the space, while a separate back kitchen handles bigger meal prep — including anything the private chef might whip up.
Bedrooms designed as private suites with ocean views
The primary suite gets its own floor for maximum privacy, while each of the eight en-suite bedrooms includes sliding doors that open directly to terraces with loungers.
Bathrooms feature oversized windows for near-outdoor bathing experiences, and the layouts keep everything bright, relaxed, and built around the views.
A rooftop whirlpool that hosts 16
On the rooftop, a whirlpool that can host 16 people sits beside a bar area overlooking the coastline — the kind of spot where entire episodes of The White Lotus could unfold without ever leaving the deck.
Outdoor dining salas, sunset lounges, and multi-level terraces
Across its 4,000 sqm of land area, the villa spreads out several terraces, decks, a waterfall feature, a poolside lawn, and an open-air sala set up for al fresco meals. A sunset lounge sits just steps from the pool, and the rooftop bar becomes the social center at night.
Three pools, a rooftop bar, and wilderness-level open-air spaces
Outdoors, Amaravida delivers pure theater. Three pools wrap around the property, including the dramatic 38-meter infinity pool, with complementary amenities inside (including a sauna and ample space for luxury treatments).
Water lovers get kayaks and paddleboards, while athletes can rotate between tennis, basketball, and squash. There’s also a kids’ playground and wide lawns for outdoor lounging.
Basically, the entire property is built like a mini-resort — with all the cinematic touches that made it TV-ready.
