Here’s how to reenact the iconic Harper and Daphne scene from The White Lotus

Live your best life, in Palermo.
Loading the player...

When Daphne (Meghann Fahy) and Harper (Aubrey Plaza) set off on a girls-only trip to Palermo to stay the night at a striking Italian villa in The White Lotus, we couldn’t have been more jealous.

The entire season – which you can stream now on BINGE right here – had us itching to pack our bags and catch the next flight out to Italy.

But, we’re in luck because we can do just that with Airbnb adding a certain villa to its portfolio, and it’s a rather iconic one if we do say ourselves.

That is of course the exceptional Villa Tasca located in Palermo that Daphne booked for her impromptu girls trip with Harper, boasting the perfect place for the two to share some rather murky confessions.

Questionable parentage aside, The White Lotus is the perfect excuse to finally book that trip you’ve always wanted and bask in the warm Sicilian sun.
