Barbie themed Condo

$1,300.00 USD total for 3 nights

Oct 1 – 4, 2026

The Barbie condo and hot tub were the highlight of our trip! The condo was a dream come true for my daughters. The attention to detail was unbelievable. You can tell that everything was custom picked Barbie/pink. 1) Be aware shoes cannot be worn inside the condo. I brought some house slippers to wear due to an issue with my foot. 2) I recommend bringing ear plugs because the condo is near the train track with trains going by during all hours. If pink earplugs were provided, that would be a nice touch. 3) The condo is so nice that we felt a bit on edge worrying that our daughters might spill something or mess something up. 4) There are several Barbie items that looked collectible. If you bring children, make sure they are aware that these items are off limits. I would've liked there to be a few Barbies that could be played with. Overall, we highly recommend staying here if you have a Barbie fan in your party. It was pricey I thought, but worth it for the experience.
