If you’ve ever dreamed about living in Barbie’s lavish Malibu mansion, here’s your chance! As part of the film’s promotions, Barbie teamed up with Airbnb to offer guests a chance to experience life in Malibu, Barbie style.
As some may know, the Malibu BeachHouse property has always been available on Airbnb, however, the property has undergone renovations to adapt to Ken’s style. This means more fluorescent pink with Ken’s cowboy-themed closet which guests will have an opportunity to rummage through. You may even strum a tune on his guitar or test your skills on the outdoor disco dance floor if you’re feeling musical.
“We all have dreams, and Barbie is lucky enough to have a house full of them,” said Ken. “But now, it’s my turn, and I can’t wait to host guests inside these one-of-a-kind – dare I say, one-of-a-Ken? – digs.”
As for the property, the three-storey mansion has a stunning oceanview pool, a poolside fire pit, the Ken-ecue, a disco roller rink with a DJ deck, and a rooftop gym with jars of Ken’s Beefy Body Brine are other somewhat off-reality features in the Kendom.
Here’s where it gets interesting. While the property is available for rent for all, Airbnb will be providing two separate one-night fushia-fueled escapes for two visitors. Those looking to seize the opportunity can request to book Ken’s room in Barbie’s Malibu DreamHouse on Airbnb.comon Monday, July 17 at 10 a.m. PT. The complimentary one-night stay for up to two persons will be available on July 21 and 22 to coincide with the film’s debut.
Adding to the fun, visitors will be able to take home a pair of Impala neon skates as well as surfboards identical to those depicted in the film.
“As you probably know, I’m a beach guy — and Malibu is the ultimate oceanfront paradise, with its never-ending sunshine (don’t forget your cowboy hat and sunscreen!), beaches as far as the eye can see, and surf shops everywhere,” writes Ken in the listing. “Nearby, you’ll find every beach activity you could ever dream of: sunbathing, shopping, surfing, and the best boardwalks for rollerblading (thank me later). This place is selfie central too, so be sure to snap some photos along the way.”
