(I have no affiliation with Nobu whatsoever - So if any of you baller FTCers do end up booking a stay there, please report back!!!)
“Kindly note that there is a 2-night minimum stay with rates beginning at $2,000 per night during preferred travel periods.”
I’m morally against this. 
Anything I can’t afford is immoral. Anything I CAN afford is unworthy.

If I were rich, overworked, and stressed out I might do it, but otherwise I’d go to Japan.
Some years back I won a stay at a very expensive spa, but it wasn’t very appealing so I sold it and went to Wilbur Hot Springs instead.
This.
Nobu’s thing in Malibu isn’t even a traditional ryokan. No kaiseki, no shiki futon…
Whatevs.
