VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

Highly esteemed chef Nobu Matsuhisa brings us yet another outpost of his high-end Japanese restaurant with Nobu Lanai. The restaurant, which opened in 2012 at
Four Seasons Resort Lanai, serves classic dishes as well as ones exclusive to the Hawaiian locale.
Set on the lower lobby of the luxury resort, Nobu is only open for dinner, but it offers cocktails and snack options starting at 5 p.m. on the patio.
Go there before dinner to watch the lighting of the torches, an event that occurs nightly at sundown, while sipping refreshing drinks like the Peruvian caipirinha finished with shisho and ginger beer or the lilikoi margarita made with passion fruit.
Nosh on Nobu favorites like the skewered, cube-shaped crispy rice with tuna, served in a parchment-paper-lined logoed box with a side of soy sauce and wasabi — a treat that complements the flavorful drinks and gorgeous setting.
