Even if you don't manage to score the Airbnb and, as a result, don't go home with a free pair of the Impala skate equipment featured in the film, you can still get your feet into a pair. The first drop sold out on Impala's website, but a whole new batch is now up on Zappos for anyone looking to brighten up their gear. Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken can be seen in the Barbie trailer sporting the getup on what may be their first excursion into the real world. That they are met with leering looks and laughter on the Venice Beach boardwalk should be chalked up to their full-scale neon attire—the skates and their accessories totally fly standing alone.

They'll be able to reserve the entire house for $60 a night (in honor of Barbie's 60th anniversary) and spend two nights on the property, Sunday, October 27 to Tuesday, October 29, with up to three friends. Malibu-based luxury real estate company RubyHome, has put the home’s price tag at $10 million — significantly higher than the estimates from the online real estate portals. Zillow gives the home an estimated price tag of $5,347,400, Redfin‘s estimates comes in at $3,491,022, and Realtor.com give the most optimistic estimate at $7,277,000. The upcoming Greta Gerwig film has reignited the interest in all things hot pink. Barbiecore isn't just on the runway — it has also inspired the interior decor of houses and even vintage campers. Up to two guests can stay in the home each night, but they're responsible for their own travel to and from Malibu if they're out of state, per the Airbnb press release.

While only a handful will realize their DreamHouse, uh, dreams, anyone can deck out their digs in Barbiecore. Mattel and the Warner Bros. film continue to roll out collaborations to promote all things Barbie (as they have been for the last year). Below, shop some of the official movie merch and other popular pink picks inspired by the film, and don’t forget to set your alarm for July 17 at 10 a.m. The real-life Barbie DreamHouse is reopening its doors in Malibu soon — but this time, the three-story Airbnb promises big Kenergy. The seaside property with panoramic views first went up for rent in 2019, and Ken has redecorated the bright pink pad ahead of Greta Gerwig’s highly-anticipated Barbie film.

Barbie lists Malibu Dreamhouse on Airbnb

The massive compound features a massive pool and waterslide, a dance floor, several Barbie-inspired bedrooms and plenty of pink. Guests will be able to take home a set of yellow-and-pink roller skates as well as their own surfboard, per the press release. With Ken as “host,” Barbie’s pink-drenched Malibu DreamHouse is hitting Airbnb once again this month, offering guests the chance to stay at the house prior to the upcoming release of the doll’s eponymous film, directed by Greta Gerwig. The home features an infinity pool, wraparound balcony, outdoor dance floor and workout area. When Barbie embarks on her road trip, the only thing in her backseat, it turns out, is Ken. As the film’s producers told Architectural Digest, Barbie and her wardrobe are not necessarily constrained by the material laws of object permanence.

In October 2019, the residence was briefly available to rent for $60 a night. The ‘Barbie’ film used so much pink paint that it depleted the global reserves of its supplier, Rosco, which were already limited by supply chain issues. “We all have dreams, and Barbie is lucky enough to have a house full of them,” Ken said Monday in a statement. The film was recently in the news as it made "the world run out of pink", while a recent book explored Barbie's Dreamhouse through the ages. "All 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 beach, not math!" Airbnb said. The house, which was previously listed by Airbnb for Barbie's 60th anniversary in 2019, has had a recent update to give it more "Kenergy" and mark Barbie making her live-action debut in the Barbie film starring Margot Robbie.

Other details that nod to Ken's takeover include a Western-style swing door, decorated with an image of a horse and the words "Kendom Saloon", and a crossed-out "Barbie" sign above the outdoor kitchen that now reads "Ken". Kodak’s Printomatic digital camera — in chic Barbie-inspired pink — instantly prints out your memories on ink-free Zink photo paper.

This is not the case for the rest of us—your clothes need to be packed if you want them to come with you. Perhaps a number or two from the new Béis x Barbie The Movie luggage collection, which drops July 19 in tandem with the movie's release? On the market are hot pink weekender bags, hot pink hard-shell rollers, and hot pink cosmetic cases, just to name a few. I got a special, early chance to slide into Ken’s new infinity pool and take Barbie’s pink convertible for a spin. The slide led to a fake, toy-styled pool, and the “convertible” was really just a golf cart that led me up a long, winding hill past the gates and into Barbie’s dream world.

During the stay, guests will have an opportunity to "take a spin" through Ken's wardrobe, per the Airbnb press release. Upon arrival, guests will be met by a concierge who will give them a tour of the property and "ensure a comfortable stay for you and your guest — including showing you around and setting out and arranging meals." In a marketing stunt ahead of the release of director Greta Gerwig's hotly-anticipated "Barbie" movie, a listing has appeared on Airbnb offering guests a stay at Barbie's Malibu DreamHouse. Barbieland’s creation also appeared to take up one company’s entire global supply of pink paint, Gerwig and Sarah Greenwood, the film’s production designer, told Architectural Digest in early June.

Lindsay Lowe has been a regular contributor to TODAY.com since 2016, covering pop culture, style, home and other lifestyle topics. She is also working on her first novel, a domestic drama set in rural Regency England. But now, the oceanfront home has been renovated to fully embrace all things pink and Barbie.

The company will make a one-time donation to the charity Save the Children in celebration of the Barbie movie. Videos and images of a mysterious Barbie house gained attention online Sunday, when a local news helicopter spotted the house from the sky. Dreams will come true for up to four people on Monday, July 17 starting at 10 a.m. Up for grabs are two free one-night stays for up to two people each night on July 21 and 22. “During your stay, you will have the opportunity to live in technicolor,” ‘Ken’ promises.

The hot pink wonderland is full of fun details, including an infinity pool with “Ken” pool floats, a pink waterslide and plenty of Ken and Barbie-approved accessories, from surfboards to a life-size horse. If you’ve always dreamt of a life that’s plastic, fantastic and pink all over, your prayers have been answered by Airbnb. Beginning in mid-July, ahead of the premiere of the Barbie movie, Barbie fans can book a stay in Ken’s bedroom in Barbie’s oceanside mansion in Malibu, California. The beachfront property has been renovated since the last time it was listed on Airbnb in honor of the doll's 60th anniversary in October 2019, per an Airbnb press release. The hot-pink Airbnb is a life-sized iteration of the iconic toy Dreamhouse that was first released in 1962, three years after the doll. He’s just Ken,” declares the tagline for the upcoming Barbie movie, slated to open in theaters later this month.

I wish I’d invited some friends to throw on the Barbie soundtrack (or some horse noises?) and dance the night away. Inside the bedroom—which only has one free-standing door, a saloon-esque entryway painted with horses—Ken has really let his western flag fly. Cowboy hats sit in a crown above the still-Barbie pink velvet bed, though a new cow-print duvet rests upon the mattress. Barbie’s vanity has been invaded by cologne (engraved with the year 1961, when Mattel released the Ken doll), Ken’s plastic keys, and other fun trinkets.
