- A follow up video to Living in Vinhomes Central Park.
I've been asked a lot of questions about how it is to live in Vinhomes, would I recommend it and the benefits. In my previous video, I outlined some of the good and bad points, in this video, I wanted to outline everything wrong with living here.
Vinhomes is hands down a great place to live, no doubt. However, there is just so much that, personally, I think is wrong and I think a lot of the people who live hear also think as well.
PREACH!!!!! Every word you said is FACT. I could write a book , the frustration every single day. Cracks in my walls, shower water is brown , can’t use the pool between 12-2 (the only time it’s sunny!!) a lifeguard wanted to fight me once because I moved a chair 5 inches at the pool! Security don’t really care about complaints, reception aren’t ever really warm, welcoming or helpful either .. lease is finished soon! I love Ho Chi Minh but I could not recommend Vinhomes less! Can not wait to move! Great video.
Luca Tedde , we are sorry that you had bad experienced with vinhome , definitely Vinhome got many problems recently , i suggest you should move to D7 because overthere , they have more high quality apartments , people are misunderstand that vinhome apartments are for the rich actually they are not , because those apartments only for normal people , so the quality is not that perfect and its not design for the rich with that prices .
Why trust capitalists under the communists??
They are brothers of evil
Western capitalists get a profit of 10-15% for a big construction project, commie capitalists pocket about 60% the total cost...and give some to corrupt commie officials!
The Landscaper should be fired!
I heard you man! This is not an isolated problem that you experienced at Vinhomes Central Park, it's rather a universal problem in Vietnam. Walking around major cities such Hanoi or Saigon, you will see broken sidewalks everywhere, this is because they were built with low quality and people willing to abuse them by riding their motobikes over them. Years ago, a Japanese man said Vietnamese people only care how it looks inside their homes but careless for any else outside where they live. It is so true. I find it difficult to understand and frustrated at the same time why Vietnamese people have such mentality. People feel free to throw whatever they feel like on the streets, knowing that the garbage collectors will pick them up at night while you sleep, leaving the streets full of trashes during day. How the F**K I can enjoy my surrounding? Sorry for the language, but I need to get it out of my chest. Go and take a look around Vincom Center A in downtown, it looks like people urinate around the building and nobody cares to clean it up for years.
U actually complain about this??
That's not really a big deal to have garbage on the ground. I don't understand why you're so frustrated because of this. Its vietnam and there are so many other things you can do vietnam and things that will make u happy while ur there.
and btw NO ONE ever urinates around the buildings in vinhomes
@@nathannguyen9977 he's talking about Vincom center in D1 and it is true
They built low-quality roads because every time they fix them, it’s a major profit for them. So that’s basically their goal, build them as shitty as possible and fix them as often as they can.
I've lived in Landmark 2 for 5 months... my water is normal color, I have no cockroaches, everything is clean, new, modern.. I haven't seen any of the things you all are complaining about (and I'm not a fake account or part of Vingroup, lol).. all I can say is, try living in China before bitching about Vietnam.. because it's much better here.
Looks like you're the exception rather than the rule.
I agree with you, I stayed only for one week over tet, L2 30th floor with view of the river, only a week but never had one negative experience.
Totally agree on all of this. Potholes on the road aren't very safe for driving. The fluidity of the walkways like you were saying are very random which takes away the purpose of the paths and instead add in frustration by having to look down at almost every step to avoid tripping over a random slope leading downwards. Finally, the security is lacking in some areas that require attention like traffic safety and instead they're standing at the parks like the immigration of an airport. one of the worst experiences is people crossing in front of the entrance to parking in the basement which is a major hazard for both the driver and resident, meanwhile the security literally just stands there. if they're going to put crosswalks, use them. thank you for this.
Mentality of commies are just powers and money only!!!
Thank you!! I am searching for a place now and will defo have this into consideration!
Thanks for your video .I totally agreed and appreciated your experience living at Vinhome Central Park . I saw of the big mistake by design their landscapes and cheat qualities was used. As a Vinhome Resident I expected the Property Management should see your view and correct the happening.Thanks
Vinhomes Central Park apartment look great outside but look and feel like crap inside. They also ask way too much for what you get
Thank you for your information!
What other places do you recommend? Thanks for the video.
Many Vietnamese know these things, and many of us avoid to buy Vingroyup product. Many complains and negative news / reviews about Vingroup product have been posted then force to remove from online newspapers, social networks, media channels because of the pressure and power of Vingroup, as you can see, it's all about their dictatorial attitude. I hope this video will not be removed in the future.
About buying apartments: the first thing to avoid is to live in big residences with high population density. Vinhomes Central Park has 10.000 apartments, imagine you live among them, in the morning at least 20.000 people around you wake up, and go to work or take a pee at the same time it's a nightmare. Look at the internal roads, walking paths, they are all small compared to the scale of the residence. Luxury or high quality means to be low population density, exclusive and comportable, all sound not like Vinhomes central park.
lol what happened to the flashing lights around the main tower at night? did they break already or have they been turned off so people can sleep?
they are testing LED light for while before they are finished everything
Exactly! Many good things, but they also deteriorate fast. I pray that Vinhomes will take pride in their workmanship and design to fix those, very obvious, mistakes that you’ve mentioned.
Great observation and thank you for your candid video.
You like first year in town :-) Vinhomes its just another cheap fast raised building to earn as much money as possible. So build quality is overall bad, buildings have cracks on outside walls even before it finished. So any rain will make walls wet from inside, with mold growing and so on. Im wondering if in 10 years it will still look suitable for living or it will turn to ghetto for backpackers.
nice supportive investigation video. very informative! thanks!
Great video! Thanks for the info. What are the other apartments that you would recommend?
Estella is great
standards in phu my hung are better
I agree with a lot of what you put in this video. I expect some of the buildings to start falling over in about 10 years. There are definitely good reasons to live there, but I agree with the structural flaws and to getting something done for you, if you are a foreigner, is near impossible there.
Excellent video, completely agree with everything you said.
My apartment was infested with baby cockroaches (about 20 per day) for at least 3 months, all reception did was suggeet to get fumingation again and again, no help. I have to live with tape covering the sockets in the wall to prevent them getting into my apartment.
I moved to vinhomes for peace, the swimming pool and the gym. There is no peace, the ceilings and walls are made of paper thin material I can hear every footstep and every conversation. The swimming pool is closed from 12-2 EVERYDAY (even though its 34 degrees) and finally the gym is a sauna not a gym. It is impossible to work out due to the high temperature and it is locked to this temperature so nobody can change it, not even reception. Absolutely no customer service here!!
For the cockroaches, you can use this stuff to kill them all. Really effective :D Covering all the sockets is not a good idea though.

Thank you so much!
There are many better options than those Vinhomes apartments with the same cost
I do agree with what you're saying especially when you pay anywhere from $900 to $2000 USD a month. I know the employees working there really don't have a say in what gets fixed but they should be able to point you into the right direction so you can contact a director or owners of the property.
One word to describe it all "liability" . All of these issues continue to exit because there is no liability. In America, you can sue the owner or insurance company for a lot of money, if you fell and injured due to the improper maintenance. In Vietnam, who do you sue? And how much are you being compensated for, if any. The lack of liability led to negligence and short cut from builders to increase profits. Builders are not being punished to the full extend when something happen. Therefore, they do not care. I never purchased prebuilt house in VN even if I could. There is no strictly regulated building codes and inspections. I do not trust any builder there, unless you directly supervise to build your own home.
Sorry about your experience , I plant to buy property at vinhome for my part time retirement home , but I get good information of your living experience there thanks
Vinhomes is definitely an AMAZING place to live if you're living in HCM. I'd would 100% recommend living there, but just be wary. To be honest, following this video they did decide to try and fix a lot of the problems and I do understand I'm a WESTERNER living in VIETNAM so my expectations were biased for sure, but still, it's an amazing place to live!
@@lifewithsunny5309 Your expectations are that of a first world country. Vietnam should aspire to those standards if they want to compete internationally. The problems you cited are unacceptable and I for one would never live in these vinhomes seeing your review.
You should have a Vietnam subtitle, that way everyone lives in VN can see your point of view. Love your truth story.
I think the source of all these issues stem from your misconception that VinHomes is 'premium/luxury'. The VinHomes in Hanoi have most, if not more, of these issues already. Think you fell for the marketing man. Caveat emptor (even if you are just renting still applies)
That's real situation. Everybody can check. Some other aspects inside should be more investigated
I agree with what you are saying. I live near this area, I prefer City Garden over Vinhomes. It's not the best but much better than Vinhomes and especially no flood.
Kudos fam. Cracks in your walls ?
We had building dust in our pipes blocking our showers init.
lived there for a year. Can attest to all his points. And there are many more issues he doesn't know about because he doesn't speak the language to participate in the VN group.
Totally agree with you. I hope Vinhomes takes your observations in consideration. Their workmanship is an embarrassment for Vietnam if they don’t improve or change the design and quality.
Don't know what to say, too many angles here.
Partially agree, but this is only from westerners' point of view too - Quality, safty, design flaws. Someone who visited me mistakenly press the emergency button and it started to wail and then no one really respond to it. Why do they need this emergency button when no one really cares about it? Along with the aspects he mentioned in the video this is one example of a software(operating) issue. Having said that, it is fair to say Vietnam is still on the early stage of development and nothing can be perfect in its first baby step. They will eventually catch up though.
If they go on like this, they will fall behind again, not catch up
It's not a first step for Vingroup, nor is it a baby step. People need to stop making excuses for Vingroup. They have what? 3 other similar projects already in Hanoi.
And it's not from westerners' point of view. Just look at other projects in HCMC and compare. You don't need to compare it to other countries
I would suggest letting maintenance know right away about any cracks in the walls, broken tiles or anything else in the condo that's falling apart. These things usually happen when the buildings settle..........I'd even go so far as to record the things wrong inside the condo so that they try and not take any deposits when you leave. Also keep it written down on who you talked to and the dates so that you can provide it at a later date, you have to cover your ass!!
I truly believe that vn is in a serious bubble. So many projects and all the buildings look the same.
I totally agree with this video. I used to live there for 1month and moved out. That place is the worst i've ever experienced in Hochiminh city. The Landmark construction noise was terrible i cannot slept at night. The quality, they just pretend to be luxurious complex in hochiminh. I think the walking street thing is kinda Vietnamese average. Most walking streets in Vietnam have a same problem. Anyway Vinhomes complex is awful..
None of this comes as any surprise to me. Standards are just lower in Vietnam and you have to take the bad with the good, or leave. But I understand your point about Vinhomes modeling itself on Western living ideals. Unfortunately there seems to no incentive for big real estate companies to maintain a higher standard because there is less competition and government regulation. You would hope a general sense of pride would be enough to keep things from going straight to crap, but obviously not.
i think , you get the right points , first thing is Vietnam is a communist country and don't expect everything is perfect like the freedom countries , because there is no regulation at all in this country , when you come to Vietnam or china with the mindset that , hey this is Vietnam , and you are accept the different things from culture to attitude of people
and it's much more easier for you guys , but don't come to Vietnam or another developing countries with the mindset , i want everything is perfect like US or UK , and you are only pay just around $ 500-1000 that is very cheap compare to western standard , if you pay around $5000-10000/month that's different story , $500-1000/month and you can not find any apartment like that in Us or UK have all the things like Vinhome , especially in Newyork Central park . Some guys never get the ideas before they come . for me very is stupid .
Vinhome is massively overrated in my opinion. Using it’s name to attract buyers to live in it and calling themselves successful is sort of strange tbh. And the design itself is an Eye Sore, like building giant luxurious skyscrapers next to a place where houses aren’t even taller than 2 stories just seems eccentric. And also Vingroup has a reputation for threatening to sue and silencing its customers, so thank you for actually saying something.
@Sunny, what happened with your post and your profile on Facebook? I checked with my co-admin but couldn’t find your post nor active profile anymore. Can you get in touch with me via other means as I won’t allow censorship if proven to be initiated by VHCP. Did you got a message from FB ? The message we spotted is that the posts and comments were removed, being “abusive” which is utter crap. I’d like to dig into the truth. Cheers
ceevee369 My account has been disabled due to "Pretending to be someone else" which I have had to supply my i.d to fb. I made a second fb account and posted once and then the same thing happened...
Life With Sunny , that sucks. Could you confirm this was rather coincidence or did you observed a pattern after posting arguable content on Vietnam specific topics? There was rumor that VN gov would ask FB to filter more on negative postings which would be hard to believe. Note however that you got 4500 views in 24 hours... maybe, just maybe...?
ceevee369 My VN videos never have had any backlash, but as soon as I tell VHCP that I will speak with them next week instead of today, my account gets disabled. As well have other people's accounts from what I'm aware of.
Life With Sunny , I reposted your link as admin on my page. If I get banned, we know it’s censorship. I am willing to join your meeting with VHCP ;)
ceevee369 That would actually be really helpful. I definitely don't want to be in a meeting with VHCP by myself, I'm actually hoping to speak to the British Embassy to see what they can recommend anything and if they can give me support. But yeah, maybe join me for that meeting, would definitely feel safer

Just heard you got kicked of Facebook (impersonation..?) because of this video, wtf man.
Be wary of any high rise building with a label "high quality", "luxury", etc.. in Vietnam as a whole not just Vinhomes.
mate, you're living in a relatively poor country. this style of development's new, it'll take time to perfect. the same process occurred in singapore, malaysia, etc.
plus it's what the market demands, today. they could build everything to swiss standards, and charge 3-4 times as much, but nobody would buy. compared to a "real" vietnamese neighbourhood, vinhomes is paradise, even with all its flaws.
Thanks for making this vid. Gosh I live in Việt Nam and these buildings did not age well. They all look the same and the design is ugly if you ask me. Imagine another 10 yrs. it’s gonna look like the ghettos in new york
Gated communities.

I hope you will find out a good place, that is much standard of health and safety yours, but isn't Vietnam
Hey, I do not want to live with expats, and other foreigners...being American I definitely prefer the locals, Vietnamese....cleaner places and much much cheaper...better in the Việt Names area...
You have money. You can live anywhere you want to. Why complained? If it's that bad, people will all move out. They'll learn their lesson.
crazy guy
You made some valid points, but to say "everything wrong with living..." is a very negative generalization. I just moved here and I found both good things and bad things that needed to be improved. You lost me at the beginning, by saying that this is the "beacon of wealth". That's a very arrogant and ignorant assumption looking from every angles. I think you should move somewhere that make you happier.
Good on you if you find it comfortable to live in this terrible housing complex, but TBH, the quality of everything is subpar. There is no good thing to say about it, really. And also, improve your English please. The title reads "everything wrong...", not "everything is wrong...". Different things.
"everything wrong with..." doesnt literally mean that everything is wrong there. It's just a way of saying "here is a list of things that are wrong with..."
i didn't see any problems with her statement , she had already admited that , there are some problems with the quality but there are also some things about vinhome , you should not be too negative that her pointed , attack on someone english is not very polite , when english is not their native language .
Thank you. The internet is full of ugly people who think they are better than others, and jump into personal attacks any chance they have. This disgusts me and I often regret making any comments here. I feel sorry for anyone who have to live with them.
Her entire comment was made on the fact that she understood the title incorrectly. "Everything wrong..." is totally different from "Everything IS wrong...". I was not attacking her English, just trying to let her know that her understanding of the situation was wrong, as well has her hatred targeted at a foreigner who just wants to get what he paid for. This guy paid premium price and he expected premium services. Anything that does not fit into the "premium" category can be classified into his "Everything wrong..." list. He obviously did NOT say "Everything IS wrong". Period.
Poor you. People who can only see bad side of a fact will never be happy.
What are the good aspects of shoddy construction?
PL H crap is crap. Sunny is correct.
I guess you're happy with any shit happened huh? Dissatisfaction and improvement is the way this world works.
Vietnamese people think that they can take one photo of something when it's ok and that proves that it's western standard and that they can charge western prices. That said, most apt complexes are overpriced and shitty.
YOU WANNA GO, BRO FIRST OF ALL AT LEAST HE FLIPPIN DID SOMETHING A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SCARED OF DOIN OK NON LIKE YOU. SECONDLY, HAVE YOU SEEN THE FLIPPIN SECURITY THERE HUH.
