Sarah Jessica Parker has teamed up with Airbnb to bring Carrie Bradshaw's iconic Sex and the City first premiered in 1998. Following the lives of four female best friends living in New York City as they navigated their way through sex, love and friendship, the show was an instant success. In the 23 years since its release, Sex and the City has been watched and re-watched by generations, securing its place firmly in sitcom history.
In January, HBO Max officially announced that Sex and the City would be getting a reboot titled And Just Like That... With many returning cast , including Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw, Kristin Davis as Charlotte York, and Cynthia Nixon as Miranda Hobbs, the announcement sent the internet into a frenzy. The 10-part series will revisit the lives of the beloved characters, prompting questions like, "What happened to Carrie and Mr. Big?" Aside from the notable absence of Kim Cattrall, who will not be reprising her role as Samantha Jones, the huge sign-on from original cast has left fans very excited for the reboot.
In a post to Instagram, Jessica Parker revealed she has paired with Airbnb to host a real life replica of Carrie's apartment, which some fans will actually get the chance to stay in. In a carousel of pictures, SJP is seen posing in Carrie's iconic wardrobe, along with shots of her famous writing desk, many shoes (of course), and even a few Cosmopolitans. Opening for booking at 12pm EST on November 8, the apartment will be available for two one-night stays on November 12 and November 13. In celebration of Sex and the City's 23rd anniversary, it will only cost $23 per night. See her post below:

Likely to make an appearance in And Just Like That..., the apartment is one of the most recognisable film sets in HBO history, and it is clearly something that Jessica Parker holds very dear to her heart. The listing on Airbnb shares even more snaps of the apartment, confirming that it is set inside a brownstone complete with Carrie's "picturesque" stoop. The lucky guests of the apartment will even be encouraged to play dress up in Carrie's iconic closet.
Set to premiere in December, And Just Like That... will undoubtedly draw in fans old and new, as the characters of Sex and the City grace the screen once again. While Carrie and Big (Chris Noth) finally had their happy ending in the movie Sex and the City 2, despite that Aidan mishap, fans are wondering whether the couple have remained stable all these years later. Although she moved in with Big, Carrie previously kept her old apartment as a space to do her writing, so it's likely that the reboot will place her back in that space at some point during the series. As the premiere date nears, eager fans "can't help but wonder" what happens next.
