Welcome to the Kendom!

While Barbie’s away, Ken’s gonna play—and you’re invited! In honor of the July 21 Barbie movie release, Airbnb is giving fans a chance to stay in an IRL reproduction of the beloved Malibu Barbie DreamHouse, with Ken as host.

Two pairs of lucky guests will get to live out their technicolor dreams for a night. Booking opens at 10 a.m. PT on Monday, July 17 for two, one-night stays for up to two guests taking place on July 21 and July 22, 2023. These stays will be free of charge—because Ken couldn’t figure out how to put a price on Barbie’s Malibu DreamHouse. After all, Ken’s thing is the beach, not math!

While Barbie has always been in the spotlight, it’s now her partner’s time to shine. “We all have dreams, and Barbie is lucky enough to have a house full of them,” said Ken via press release. “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.”

Situated on the sunny Malibu coast, the DreamHouse features views for days. Enjoy your time outdoors around the fire pit and soak up some California sun while you take a dip in the infinity pool.

Belly up to the bar and have Ken make you a mai tai while he’s grilling up the burgers!

Head indoors where you’ll find Ken’s cowboy chic taking over the bedroom and beyond.

Dig through his closet for that perfect look to wear to, you guessed it, the on-site disco roller rink!

Guests will even get to take home a piece of the Kendom with their very own set of yellow-and-pink Impala skates and surfboards.

Check out this bird’s eye view of the mansion, complete with giant pink slide and pool floaties spelling out K-E-N.

You may recognize Barbie’s digs from the last time Airbnb offered them to guests in 2019 (below). We love how they went all in with the pink paint in the 2023 update. Talk about a makeover!
