Barbie’s Malibu DreamHouse available on Airbnb
Barbie movie fans can book a stay at a real-life Malibu DreamHouse ahead of the film's July 21 release date.
The pink palace has been added as a listing on the popular vacation rental company website, by none other than Ken himself (played by Ryan Gosling in the movie).
"Welcome to my Kendom!," reads the listing's bio. "While Barbie is away, she has handed over the keys to her Malibu DreamHouse this summer and my room could be yours for the night.
"I’ve added a few touches to bring some much-needed Kenergy to the newly renovated and iconic Malibu DreamHouse. Placed perfectly above the beach with panoramic views, this life-size toy pink mansion is a dream come true!"
"Kenergy" design features include a cowboy closet, his trusty yellow-and-pink Impala rollerblades and a surf board to hit the nearby waves.
There's also an outdoor disco dance floor at guests' disposal to bust some moves and a guitar or two to help perform "a sunset serenade". How romantic!
Those interested in spending a night at Ken's pad need to head to Airbnb on July 17 at 10am PT and request to book the listing. You'll have to be quick though, as one two one-night stays for up to two guests are available on July 21 and July 22, 2023.
The Airbnb stay dates coincide with the Barbie movie release date, arriving in cinemas in the UK on July 21.
Airbnb has confirmed that they will be making a one-time donation to charity Save the Children in celebration of the movie release and to "honour girls’ empowerment".
The Barbie DreamHouse audiences will see on the big screen was actually constructed on a Warner Bros Studios lot outside London. Director Greta Gerwig explained her vision for her heroine's home in a recent interview with Architectural Digest.
"I wanted the pinks to be very bright, and everything to be almost too much," she said, adding that it was important not to "forget what made me love Barbie when I was a little girl."
Barbie is due to be released in cinemas on July 21.
