The ceremony marked the opening of Lake, the first building in Grand Marina Saigon, and the first Marriott branded residences in Vietnam.
HCMC | November 14, 2023 – Marriott Residences, Grand Marina Saigon, Lake officially opened today at No. 2 Ton Duc Thang street, Ben Nghe ward, District 1, HCMC. The inauguration of the first Marriott Residences in Vietnam was marked with a Grand Opening Ceremony. The event was graced by the presence of executives from Masterise Homes® and Marriott International, as well as distinguished representatives from the U.S. Consulate in Vietnam and the American Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam (AmCham Vietnam).
Lake is the first tower to be completed within Grand Marina, Saigon – a 10-hectare development by Masterise Homes®, slated to host the world's largest Marriott branded residential project featuring both Marriott and JW Marriott Residences. Home previously to the historic shipyard of Ba Son, the masterplan occupies a commanding position in District 1, a highly sought after location due to the limited availability of land for new residential projects in the city center and is distinguished by its historical significance.
The site’s heritage inspired the architecture design for the Lotus Park – a landscaped public space. which connects soul and serenity of the iconic riverside, and to the cultural and commercial centers of Vietnam’s cosmopolitan heart. Grand Marina, Saigon is central to the city’s vibrant downtown, interwoven into its rich social tapestry, offering easy access to the city's prominent landmarks such as the Opera House, Notre-Dame Cathedral of Saigon. Metro entrances to Ba Son Station at the doorstep puts the entire city within easy reach.
Ranging from one to three bedrooms, Lake tower’s Residences are equipped with the latest smart-home technology, and amenity spaces that span three floors. The ground floor hosts the property’s grand entrance with spectacularly appointed lobby, a tranquility pool and accompanying kid’s pool which are surrounded by tropical greenery and shaded cabanas. Level 1 includes a Kids’ Club for inspirational playtime with contemporary learning zones, a great room lounge, quiet library lounge, Boardroom, and an 11-seat theatre with a connecting refreshment bar for social gatherings. The recreational facilities extend to the rooftop on Level 46, with a shaded sky pool, jacuzzi, BBQ with dining area, fitness center and enviable view of Ho Chi Minh City, the river and the Botanical Gardens.
The completion of The Residences is the result of unified effort among Masterise Homes® and its extensive team of award-winning global design and construction partners including Atkins – a multinational architectural design company headquartered in London, Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA) - an American international hospitality design firm, and Mace - a global consultancy and construction firm headquartered in London. Every detail has undergone a meticulous review process to meet Marriott design brand standards. The Residences was designed following the three pillars of Marriott modern design inspired by heritage: Captivating Interior Architecture, Honest meets Polished and Details that Elevate.
The opening of Lake unveils designs of timeless elegance, excellent construction quality, and exquisite Italian fit-outs complemented by the wonderful hospitality and attention to detail by Marriott. The Residences effortlessly fulfill the discerning desires of high-net-worth individuals for strata-title real estate, elevating their lifestyle by seamlessly merging the privacy of a home with the comfort and convenience of hotel-inspired services and amenities.
