For The White Lotus fans seeking a new suspense and drama filled vacation mystery location, book your stay at THE BEACH HOTEL – a sun-soaked European resort where luxury hides secrets, lies and desire. From Sweden’s Queen of Crime, bestselling mystery author Camilla Läckberg, the long-running soap opera mystery series dives deeper into danger in its gripping fourth outing, as the seaside sanctuary in the picturesque resort town of Saltsjövik faces fresh turmoil and long-buried truths resurface. The eagerly-anticipated fourth season of The Beach Hotel makes its exclusive U.S. debut on the European streaming service, Viaplay on Thursday, December 11, 2025 with the first four episodes, and the final four episodes on December 18, 2025. All previous seasons are now available to stream on Viaplay.

Following the shocking assassination attempt on journalist Jakob Hallberg, Lovisa (Hanna Asp, The Circle) is desperate to conceal her real identity – taking extreme measures to cover her tracks and silence those who might expose her connection to Vendela’s (Jenny Ulving McCabe, The Invisible) real daughter. As wedding bells ring for Sebastian (Filip Wolfe Sjunnesson, Eagles) and Marianne (Irina Eidsvold Tøien, Thelma, The Innocents), their happiness is overshadowed by tragedy when her secret illness is uncovered. Meanwhile, the arrival of Lilja in the Strandhotellet kitchen stirs new emotions and feelings for Carl, the kitchen manager’s son. As ghosts of the past rise again, Werner’s (Samuel Fröler, Nobel) grip on the hotel begins to slip and Hanna (Nadja Sofi, NCIS: Hawai’i) gets closer to discovering Lovisa’s true identity – will she learn the shocking truth before it’s too late?

Check in at The Beach Hotel for a sunshine-filled addictive blend of glamour, intrigue and high-stakes drama where secrets, lies and love collide.

Produced by Creative Society, The Beach Hotel is directed by Tereza Andersson, Andreas Lindergård, and Peter Lindmark. Writers are Lovisa Löwhagen and Jakob Vasell.

Camilla Läckberg is a bestselling author with more than 40 million copies sold worldwide, and her books are published in over 60 countries. She is the third best-selling Swedish author in history, behind only Astrid Lindgren and Stieg Larsson.

After Norway’s Oscar Breakthrough: 6 Norwegian Series U.S. Audiences Shouldn’t Miss

With Norway newly in the global spotlight following its first Academy Award win for Sentimental Value, attention is turning to the country’s broader storytelling boom—particularly in television, where in the last few years, Norwegian creators have been quietly producing some of Europe’s most compelling and distinctive series.   Nordic-focused streamer Viaplay offers a slate of standout Norwegian titles that showcase the country’s range and ambition. Available to binge now:   The Fortress – “Smartly written… thrillingly fast-paced” (TIME) and “Supremely satisfying” (Houston Chronicle) | Led by Tobias Santelmann (Netflix’s Harry Hole) and Russell Tovey and winner of Best Screenplay at Series Mania, the timely dystopian drama series is set in an eerily familiar 2037, where Norway has chosen to sever all ties with the rest of the world and grapples with isolation, identity, and global instability. Trailer Stayer –  ‘Best New Shows’ Selection…“Outstanding Cast” (Time Magazine) and “Beautiful, deep, intense, and fabulous hour drama” (ABC22) | Led by Aksel Hennie (The Martian, Sisu) – who also directs – this high-end drama follows an aging rock musician forced to rebuild his life—and rediscover purpose in music and fatherhood—after a personal tragedy. Trailer The Architect – “Vicious and funny” (The New York Times) | Starring Eili Harboe (Succession’s final season), this innovative, short-form dramedy is a smart, satirical take on ambition and survival in a broken housing market—blending bleak humor with incisive social commentary. Trailer Furia, Seasons 1 & 2 – “Jaw-clenchingly suspenseful… gripping and unpredictable.” (Foreign Crime Drama) | A high-stakes political thriller exploring the rise of extremism in Europe, combining intimate character drama with urgent geopolitical tension. Trailer Fenris - “Thoroughly engrossing” (The Wall Street Journal) and “A rarely explored world… an exceptional series.” (MovieWeb) | Directed by Simen Alsvik (Lilyhammer), this tense, atmospheric mystery unfolds in a remote forest community, where disappearances may be tied to both human secrets and wolves in the wild. Trailer Liv Ullmann: A Road Less Traveled – “Pure pleasure” (The Wall Street Journal) | A Cannes-selected docuseries on Liv Ullmann, featuring interviews with Cate Blanchett, Jessica Chastain, and John Lithgow—offering an intimate, star-studded portrait of one of the greatest European actresses of all-time and a window into Norway’s rich artistic legacy. Trailer Together, these series exemplify how Norway is operating at a world-class level—expanding beyond traditional Nordic noir into bold, globally resonant storytelling. Screeners are readily available for all titles.    About Viaplay: The Viaplay streaming service features thousands of hours of premium Nordic and European series and films from Scandinavia's largest and most recognized television/streaming platform.
