airbnb invites you to drift off in pixar’s up house

 

After inviting you to Shrek’s swamp, Airbnb is now exploring even more fantastical realms by offering stays in Pixar’s Up house. The residence of Carl Fredricksen stands as one of animation’s most iconic homes and is famous for its airborne adventures tethered to thousands of balloons. Airbnb offers a detailed copy of the house, with over 8,000 balloons, and according to the platform, the house really does float! Nestled amidst the scenic red rocks of Abiquiu, New Mexico, this dwelling is part of Airbnb’s Icons — a fresh category showcasing extraordinary experiences hosted by the greatest names in music, film, television, art, sports, and more. Alongside the Up House, the Icons lineup features destinations such as the Ferrari Museum, the X-Men Mansion, the Musée d’Orsay, and many more.

celebrating 15 years of the up movie

 

To commemorate the 15th anniversary of the film Up, Airbnb (find more here) has brought Carl and Ellie’s house to life in detail. This faithful recreation captures the cozy atmosphere and whimsical charm of the movie, complete with numerous Easter eggs from the animation. Guests can find photos of Carl and his wife Ellie adorning the walls, their cherished Adventure Book, the trusty backpack of nine-year-old Wilderness Explorer Russell, the cozy bed of Dug the talking dog, and many more nostalgic touches. Stepping into the house, visitors are invited to partake in a range of activities tailored to immerse them in the spirit of the film. From simple pleasures like tending to Carl’s mail and preparing a picnic kit to more adventurous pursuits such as wilderness excursions and stargazing under the night sky. 

 

‘My greatest adventures have happened here, and I learned that the best ones are always with someone you love, so bring your pals to kickstart your very own Adventure Book and watch as my house drifts off before you depart,’ says Carl Fredricksen, the main character of Up, and the host of the residence. 

 

Fans of  the Up movie can immerse themselves in the experience by filling out their preferred dates, indicating the number of guests (up to 4), and sharing their reasons for wanting to stay in the balloon-topped house. Airbnb will review all submissions and select lucky participants to finalize their bookings. Act fast, as requests will be accepted until May 14, 2024.
