The “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” Mansion Is Now An Airbnb

There's something about nostalgia and how it makes us feel. There's a sense of familiarity, of connection, and it just makes us happier. I'd venture to say we could all use a little more of that these days. Maybe I'm just speaking for myself, but I doubt it.

So when I saw that actor Will Smith was getting into the Airbnb game, it piqued my interest. Not because it's Will Smith, but because it's Will Smith renting out the Los Angeles, California, mansion where Smith and the Banks family lived in "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air!"

It's part of the show's 30th anniversary, and I have to say, a pretty cool promotion too. Not only is the mansion available to rent out, but Will Smith will be the host. Of course, this all coincides with the announcement that a reunion of the show is coming to HBO Max.

In the listing description, Will says, "If this place looks familiar, that's because it's just as fly as it was when I first rolled up the driveway. I'm back. And this time, I'm handing you the keys so you'll have my wing of the mansion all to yourself..."

If you're interested, bookings start later this month (the 29th), and all the info you need is here.
