Season 1:
Fleeing an unhappy home life, Kevin Foster is excited about moving in with his college lover, Toby, at a beachside apartment complex, the Hotel Dante. However, the young tenants of the old converted hotel soon suspect that the hotel's evil past may be alive and well in the person of the mysterious Ambrosius, whom Kevin inadvertently releases from a long bondage.
Toby and his best friend Van, a lesbian who paints the Cove's history, attempt to solve the mystery as the door has now been opened to a malevolent world of evil forces that wreak havoc in the hip beach town.
Enter Grace, a woman scorned, who continues an age-old feud with Ambrosius. Soon the past and present collide, and life at the Hotel Dante will never be the same.
Season 2:
As we return to Dante's Cove for its second season, we find Toby and Ambrosius continuing to battle for Kevin's love.
Toby and Kevin struggle to build a relationship while contending with the ordinary obstacles of jobs, troublesome exes, and well-built hookups, as well as the extraordinary obstacles from Ambrosius.
Van, having found in Season One that she has Tresum power abilities, asks Grace to become her teacher. Meanwhile, her girlfriend, Michelle, is frightened of Van's magical/dark side, and Van will wind up paying a high personal price for choosing to continue her Tresum studies.
Grace Neville returns to torment Ambrosius. In agreeing to teach Van Tresum, she has a hidden agenda of her own, as does gorgeous newcomer Diana Childs, whose past, and future, is inextricably intertwined with Grace and Ambrosius'.
Other new characters include Marco, the handsome owner of the local outdoor bar H2Eau; bad-boy Kai, who can be counted on to get his customers whatever they need, legal or illegal, and Colin, who runs the island's private sex club, and conceals a much darker secret.
The residents of the Hotel Dante will deal with addiction and insanity, love and infidelity, coming out and breaking up. One will die, and another will kill. Some, like Adam, will face hard truths about themselves. Others, like Toby, will face hard truths about those they love.
