Millions of young girls’ bright pink fantasy is realized in time for the live-action film’s debut.
Christmas Day early morning. I’m eight years old and, per usual, I’ve gotten up early to see what presents Santa has brought me. I rush down the stairs when everyone is still asleep, enter the living room on purpose, and discover Barbie’s mansion under the tree. A two-story, meticulously-designed pink and white plastic paradise with every minute detail. Including a couch, chairs, dining table, bed, dishes, TV, and balconies with flowers, everything is there. It remains the most lovely gift I have ever received.
This model home has come to life facing the ocean and is framed by the Malibu hills. The Malibu Dreamhouse, which was previously on Airbnb for short stays in 2019 to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Mattel doll, is back for the Margot Robbie movie. Recently, the house underwent renovations, changing from a pastel color scheme to a shocking pink that includes all the amenities: from the roller skating rink to the disco, from the gym to the pink outdoor the kitchen and barbecue, from the infinity pool with a view of the ocean and the curved pink slide to the outdoor lounge area, from the lounge to the bright pink cowboy-themed bedroom.
Design, decor, and clothing naturally reflect the preferences of the most popular doll in the world and are an original fusion of pop, retro, and modern with a nod to coastal cowgirl/cowboy fashion.
Host extraordinaire is Ken, who is offering four lucky people the chance to stay one night for free for up to two people in this cloud of shocking pink on 21 and 22 July 2023 for an unforgettable experience in Barbie Land, just like the cast of Greta Gerwig’s live-action film. Reservations will open at 10am on Monday 17 July PT and those who are successful will receive a free pair of rollerblades and a yellow and pink Impala surfboard. To coincide with the theatrical release of Barbie, scheduled for 21 July (20 July in Italy), Airbnb will also make a donation to Save the Children.
