Airbnb is making the childhood dreams of many X-Men and Up There fans come true by recreating iconic locations from these two franchises in real life.
For a limited time, Airbnb is offering fans the opportunity to stay in authentic replicas of the villa from the hit series X-Men 97′ and in the floating house of Là-Haut. Unfortunately, this is happening on the other side of the Atlantic, and the experience will be expensive in more ways than one.
The X-Men Mansion 97′ and the house from Up there are larger than life
Airbnb launched a marketing campaign called Icons that was original to say the least. The aim is to offer fans the opportunity to live in iconic houses from various popular licenses. Among the 11 experiences offered, we particularly keep the replicas of the mansion from the X-Men series 97′ and the house from Là-Haut, balloon ride included a priori… in both cases at your own risk.
The first residence will be in New York. It’s possible to leave with a superhero certificate in your pocket. The second will be in New Mexico. If you happen to want to spend a few days off abroad, reservations are already possible. But it will cost you. In addition to the trip, each night costs $97, at least for the X-Men mansion (ironic, right?).
According to Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky, this is part of an effort to roughly disconnect people from their screens. “ As life becomes more digital, we want to bring more magic into the real world. With the Icons program we have created the most extraordinary experiences in the world “. However, it remains to be seen whether the X-Men mansion will not be stormed by an anti-mutant league and whether the house from Up there will manage to stay in the air…
