While the series is set in California, it wasn't actually filmed there.
It was filmed in mostly Byron Bay, New South Wales, Australia, with Sydney, Ballina, and Killen Falls used for some flashback scenes.
Is Tranquillum House real?
Tranquillum House is an entirely fictional resort, but Soma, a spa in Ewingsdale, was used to film many of the scenes in the centre, as reported by CN Traveller.
The real-life spa is set in 22 acres, and features stunning views as seen in the show.
Its website states: "With the intention of creating a space to recharge your batteries, Soma has been mindfully designed with a modern yet warm aesthetic, allowing clarity externally for whatever space you need within."
Director Jonathan Levine told Forbes magazine: "The resort itself is such a big character.
"It was perfect with its amazing woods, jungles and beaches, and captured the feeling we were looking for."
