Top 10 Most Upscale Projects in Vietnam

If you want the clearest symbol of ultra-wealth in Vietnam right now, The Rivus is it. Masterise Homes positions it as Asia’s first riverfront villa collection inspired by ELIE SAAB, with only 121 villas, plots around 600-1,000 sqm, and asking prices starting from roughly VND 200 billion. This is not just expensive housing; it is a status asset aimed at people who compare homes with yachts and family offices.

Grand Marina, Saigon is the most internationally legible luxury condo address in Vietnam. The project sits at 2 Ton Duc Thang, District 1, is developed by Masterise Homes with Marriott-branded residences, and current listings show about VND 17.9 billion for 58.1 sqm, VND 31.5 billion for 78.22 sqm, and even a 239 sqm penthouse around VND 150 billion. In pure prestige-per-square-meter terms, very few addresses in the country compete with it.

The Marq feels more discreet than Grand Marina, but many wealthy buyers actually prefer that. Developed by Hongkong Land and An Khang in Da Kao, District 1, it has 515 apartments over 26 storeys and current asking levels around VND 205-240 million per sqm, with typical deals such as VND 11.5 billion for 51 sqm and VND 31 billion for 129 sqm. It reads as old-money luxury: central, polished, and not trying too hard.

The Metropole Thủ Thiêm is the strongest luxury play on the new-CBD side of the Saigon River. SonKim Land has built it into a multi-phase trophy address next to Thu Thiem’s core, and current listings run from about VND 25 billion for 69 sqm to VND 75 billion for 139 sqm, or roughly VND 330-540 million per sqm at the top end. It is more future-facing than nostalgic, and that is exactly why the city’s next-wave rich buyers love it.

In Hanoi, Heritage West Lake is one of the rare projects that genuinely feels premium rather than merely expensive. CapitaLand positions it on the edge of West Lake, and the market is now seeing around VND 132.1-276.9 million per sqm, with examples like VND 31 billion for 145 sqm and VND 36 billion for 187 sqm. Its strength is not flashy branding alone; it is the combination of lake views, low-supply positioning, and a more international residential finish.

Vinhomes Golden River is no longer the newest luxury name in Ho Chi Minh City, but it remains one of the most complete and battle-tested elite addresses. At Ba Son, District 1, current resale stock spans from about VND 8.7-10.3 billion for 50 sqm to around VND 29.8-33 billion for 118.5-126.4 sqm, with premium units clearing roughly VND 235-278 million per sqm. It ranks this high because it still combines centrality, infrastructure, river frontage, and liveability better than many newer launches.

Ecopark Grand - The Island deserves a place because upscale living in Vietnam is not only about downtown towers. This 60.4-hectare island villa enclave in Ecopark is built around 12 private islands, and current market references show a very wide band from about VND 23 million to 279 million per sqm depending on product, with villa plots running up to around 435 sqm and beyond. For buyers who want landed luxury, greenery, and privacy over urban flash, it is one of the strongest options in the country.

Noble Crystal Tây Hồ is a newer-money luxury statement, but it is a serious one. The project is pushing branded-living cues around WorldHotels operations, and current listings show roughly VND 150-207 million per sqm, including VND 18 billion for 106 sqm, VND 37 billion for 197 sqm duplexes, and up to VND 58 billion for a 280 sqm sky villa. It is less established than the top five, but the ambition and pricing are absolutely in super-prime territory.

Sun Grand City Ancora Residence still punches above its age because central Hanoi stock with genuine penthouse scarcity is always relevant. Sun Group’s project at 3 Luong Yen has 679 apartments and 31 penthouses, and the resale market shows examples like VND 25 billion for 162 sqm and VND 30 billion for 236 sqm, roughly around VND 127-154 million per sqm in those listings. It is not the flashiest luxury project today, but it remains a very credible address for buyers who want inner-city scale and river views.

For central Vietnam, Fusion Resort & Villas Da Nang is the upscale choice that feels the most resort-like and private. On Truong Sa in Ngu Hanh Son, current market references show villa pricing around VND 28-48.91 billion for 2-bedroom products, land sizes commonly from about 105 sqm to 916 sqm, and price bands reaching up to roughly VND 290 million per sqm. It is not as globally branded as some Ho Chi Minh City names, but as a beachfront luxury villa play, it is undeniably top-tier in Vietnam.
