At the top of the tallest residential tower of Lotte Eco Smart City Thu Thiem sits the product a handful of buyers will compete for: the Lotte Thu Thiem penthouse. In Lotte’s plan that tower rises to 48 floors, high enough to look straight across the Saigon River at Bitexco and the rest of the District 1 skyline.

Penthouse allocation in projects like this is usually decided before the public launch. If you are serious, it pays to be on the shortlist now.

What makes it worth the premium

  • The view: Thu Thiem is the one place in the city where you look at downtown rather than from it.
  • The neighbours: a Lotte hotel with serviced residences on floors 41–60 of the main tower, so concierge-level services are next door.
  • Scarcity: only a few top-floor units per tower, against about 1,400 apartments in total.
  • The brand: a Korean conglomerate with its own hotel, retail and construction arms behind the project.

Before you register

Be clear about your must-haves: private pool or garden terrace, double-height living room, private lift lobby, number of parking bays. Not every penthouse will offer all of them, and we will match your list against the official plans as soon as they are out. No payment is taken until the developer can legally accept a deposit, which is capped at 5% of the price.

How penthouse sales usually work

Penthouses rarely appear on the public price list in the same way as standard apartments. Developers in Ho Chi Minh City tend to show them first to a short list of buyers, sometimes with a private viewing of the model unit and a separate payment plan. A Lotte Thu Thiem penthouse will most likely follow the same pattern, with Lotte Properties HCMC and Phat Dat handling the top-floor allocations directly.

That makes preparation important: proof of funds, a clear idea of your must-haves, and a decision-maker available on the day. If you are buying from overseas, also think early about how the purchase money will be remitted into Vietnam so it can later be repatriated. We help clients organise all of this in advance, so when the penthouse plans come out you are negotiating, not scrambling.

Timing: after the 23 October 2026 groundbreaking (VOV), the developer is building the commercial towers first. The Lotte Thu Thiem penthouse units will come with the residential towers, and in our experience each Lotte Thu Thiem penthouse is spoken for before the public launch.
