Two decades after Twilight first sparked global hysteria, fans can now step straight back into the saga by booking Bella Swan’s home on Airbnb. The house, instantly recognisable from the films, remains one of the most iconic backdrops of the vampire phenomenon and now doubles as a fully immersive holiday rental.
Though the fictional Swan residence was set in Forks, Washington, the real property is located in St. Helens, Oregon, just 30 miles north of Portland. From the outside, the white façade looks exactly as it did when Kristen Stewart’s Bella pulled into the driveway for the first time. Inside, the décor is preserved as though time has stood still, complete with Bella’s vintage headboard, the green-tiled kitchen, and even the floral bedspread displayed as a keepsake from filming.
Guests can wander through the driveway where Bella’s iconic red truck was parked, peek through the same windows featured in pivotal scenes, and sit in the kitchen where many of the saga’s most important conversations unfolded. It is described as a time capsule of the late 2000s, and fans say stepping inside feels like reliving their teenage obsession.
Adding to the excitement, the Twilight films themselves are returning this year, giving fans the chance to experience the saga on screen once more. The Airbnb stay offers the perfect way to combine both – watch the films inside the very home where the story began, creating the ultimate nostalgic experience for any fan.
Unsurprisingly, demand is huge. Reservations are almost fully booked, with the property generating around $140,000 annually in rental income. The listing usually requires a two-night minimum, but some one-night stays occasionally become available, so fans are advised to keep checking.
For those who grew up in the Twilight craze, the chance to dine in Bella’s kitchen and fall asleep where Edward once stood guard outside the window may be the closest thing to living out the fantasy – especially with the movies back in cinemas.
