Dark Comedy Thriller
Logline: Hotel explores love and the weird things we do in the name of it, encased in an elaborate true-crime conspiracy, with each season set in a unique picturesque vacation destination. It is a multi-generational, coming-of-age love story disguised as a fast-paced mystery about the disappointment of time. A destination vacation puts a marriage to the test when relatives find themselves embroiled in one of the Yucatan’s most bizarre, unsolved mysteries that, somehow, is part metaphysical detective story, part Indiana Jones-esque adventure, part romance.
The eight-episode miniseries is currently in production in the tropical location of Puerto Rico.
Everyone is Redd
Redd (can play Male or Female) is from Richmond, Virginia and is at the Oceana Vista hotel and spa in Cancun Mexico for a friend’s wedding. Redd has arrows tattooed on each forearm, a far away look, and a compulsiveness that tends to get other’s in trouble. Smart, often thoughtful, and sometimes too serious, Redd's recently become obsessed with a mysterious book found in Redd’s deceased mother's collection: La Desilusión del Tiempo (The Disappointment of Time) by Illán Iberra. Redd and Sam spend time together because everyone else is caught up in their own dramas, and they will eventually discover that they have some kind of history. Like Sam, Redd is presumably killed in the hurricane - though neither body is ever found...SERIES LEAD

Quirky and Genre-bending…
When the writer of Palm Springs teams up with Mr. Robot creator we have an eight-episode miniseries at Peacock designed as the first of potentially many seasons. Hotel is described as an examination of love wrapped in a criminal conspiracy, set at a picturesque location. The first eight installments will take place at an all-inclusive destination along the Mayan Riviera and become involved in one of the Yucatan’s most infamous unsolved mysteries.
NBC’s President of Scripted Content Lisa Katz said of the new miniseries: “we’ll be exploring an off-kilter, genre-bending story that is infused with humanity and compelling characters. The show will have everything viewers are looking for in their next escape drama – thrill, mystery, love and a tropical backdrop.”
