The River at a glance
The River Thu Thiem is three connected residential towers on the Saigon River, sharing a podium and a riverfront promenade. Refico delivered the project in the early 2020s; residents have been in place since handover. The defining feature is the direct river frontage and the dramatic views of the District 1 skyline opposite β among the strongest such views available in any Thu Thiem residential development.
Refico
Refico is a Vietnamese real-estate firm with deliveries across Ho Chi Minh City. The River is the firm\'s flagship Thu Thiem development and was one of the earliest tower-form residential completions in the master plan after Sala\'s first phases.
The three towers
Three residential towers share the podium-level amenities β pools, gym, lounge β and the riverfront promenade. Each tower has its own circulation and lift cores, with floor plates calibrated to deliver river-view units across all towers. Total residential count is approximately 525 units.
Unit mix
- 1-bedroom from 60 mΒ²
- 2-bedroom from 85 mΒ²
- 3-bedroom 110β150 mΒ²
- Larger configurations and penthouses 180β240 mΒ²
Pricing
The River trades primarily on the secondary market now, with prices varying significantly by tower (river-front towers commanding the premium), floor, and unit configuration. Secondary-market sale prices have ranged from ~110 M VND/mΒ² for inland-facing inventory to substantially higher for direct-river units. Rental yields are competitive with peer Thu Thiem stock.
Investment outlook
The River is a stable, mature asset within Thu Thiem. The investment case is straightforward: river-frontage residential in a major Asian city with a settled occupant base. Capital appreciation prospects compound with each Thu Thiem infrastructure milestone β particularly the future Metro Line 2 station within walking distance.
