Sydney Sweeney received an extraordinary amount of love from her audience for her role in The White Lotus. She played the role of Olivia Mossbacher in the show, for which she also received her first Primetime Emmy nomination along with Euphoria. But, apart from the 25-year-old’s amazing acting, what fascinated people the most about the show?

It was none other than the beautiful and magnificent hotel where season one of the show was shot. The Spokane native did an interview for British GQ in January this year in which a fan asked her whether the hotel they shot in was real or not. The Sharp Objects actress revealed in her answer that they shot at the actual location in Hawaii. “We filmed at the Four Seasons in Maui,” Sweeney mentioned. Notably, the Four Seasons is the name of the resort they stayed in.

Sydney Sweeney also revealed another fascinating fact about the show: it was shot during the Lockdown. And since the world was shut down due to the pandemic, there were no guests in the resort whatsoever. Hence, the cast and crew got to enjoy it all by themselves. In the words of The Handmaid’s Tale actress, “The hotel became our house.”

Apart from the Reality actress, the cast of the show included Jennifer Coolidge, Connie Britton, Steve Zahn, Alexandra Daddario, Jon Gries, and Murray Bartlett. The first season came out in July 2021, whereas the second was released last year.
