1. The Manor Overview — Bitexco’s Original Expat Address
The Manor is one of HCMC’s most underappreciated luxury rental developments. Built by Bitexco Group (the same developer behind the iconic Bitexco Financial Tower in District 1) and delivered in 2008, The Manor was among the very first compounds in Binh Thanh designed specifically for international tenants.
The development consists of three towers — Manor 1 (AW Tower), Manor 2 (AE Tower), and Manor B — totaling approximately 800 apartments. While newer developments like Sunwah Pearl and Vinhomes Central Park have captured most of the marketing attention, The Manor retains a loyal tenant base of second- and third-term expats who specifically chose it for the combination of value, mature community, and no-nonsense functional design.
Today, The Manor sits at an interesting market position: luxury build quality and amenities, but with rental rates 20-35% below equivalent newer competitors — making it one of the most cost-effective entry points into Binh Thanh’s expat ecosystem.
2. Location & Connectivity
The Manor is located on 91 Nguyen Huu Canh Street, on the same corridor as Saigon Pearl, Sunwah Pearl, and Vinhomes Central Park. Connectivity is essentially identical to those neighbors:
- Walk to Tan Cang Metro Station (Line 1): 8-10 minutes
- Walk to Vincom Mega Mall Landmark 81: 7-10 minutes
- Walk to Saigon Pearl / SPIS school: 3-5 minutes
- To Ben Thanh / D1 center: 10-15 min by Grab
- To Bitexco Tower / Saigon Centre: 12-15 min
- To Thao Dien (D2): 15-20 min via Saigon Bridge
- To Tan Son Nhat Airport: 20-25 min
The slight walking-distance disadvantage vs Saigon Pearl (5 min) or Sunwah Pearl (7 min) to the metro is offset by The Manor’s significantly lower rent — for many tenants, an extra 3-5 minutes walking is well worth the $400-800/month rent savings.
3. The Three Towers — Manor 1, Manor 2, Manor B
Manor 1 (AW Tower)
The first tower delivered. Predominantly 2BR and 3BR family units. Largest balconies in the development, with many units featuring two balconies. Best for families and dual-income couples.
Manor 2 (AE Tower)
Sister tower to Manor 1 with identical layouts but different orientation. Some Manor 2 units have stronger D1-skyline views. Slightly different unit mix with more 1BR options.
Manor B
The third tower with broader unit variety — studios through 3BR penthouses. Manor B has the highest-floor penthouses and most diverse rental price points within the development. Some units have been renovated to near-modern standards by individual landlords.
Construction quality is consistent across all three towers — finish standards are mid-luxury (premium for 2008 standards, mid-range by 2026 standards), with individual unit conditions varying significantly based on landlord renovation investment.
4. Apartment Layouts & Specifications
| Unit type | Floor area | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | 40-55 m² | Limited supply, mainly Manor B |
| 1BR | 60-80 m² | Compact but functional, large balcony |
| 2BR standard | 80-110 m² | Master ensuite + 2nd BR + shared bath |
| 2BR corner | 110-130 m² | Dual-aspect, two balconies |
| 3BR standard | 125-155 m² | Three bedrooms + 2 baths |
| 3BR large / penthouse | 155-220 m² | Top floors, three bedrooms + 3 baths + maid’s room |
Standard 2008-era inclusions: built-in kitchen with basic appliances (oven, hob, fridge — varies by landlord), AC in all rooms, hot water, washer-dryer. Renovated units offer significantly upgraded finishes — quality varies widely. Ceiling heights typically 2.8-3.0m.
5. Rental Prices at The Manor (2026 Market)
| Unit type | Monthly rent (USD) |

| Studio | $410 |
| 1BR | $540 |
| 2BR | $680-770 |

The Manor offers among the strongest value-per-square-meter in Binh Thanh’s luxury rental market. Compared to Saigon Pearl (delivered same year, similar quality), The Manor typically rents 20-30% cheaper. Compared to Sunwah Pearl (newer), The Manor is 35-45% cheaper for equivalent floor area.
6. Amenities & Facilities
- 🏊 Swimming pool — rectangular 25m lap pool with separated kids’ section
- 💪 Fitness center — basic equipment, sufficient for casual workout routines
- 👶 Kids’ playground — outdoor area + small indoor playroom
- 🛍️ Retail podium — Vietnamese restaurants, convenience store, dry cleaning, laundromat, pharmacy on ground floor
- 🏛️ BBQ / function area — bookable for resident events
- 🅿️ Underground parking — car and motorbike levels

- 🐕 Pet-friendly with reasonable terms
- 🌳 Mature landscaping — 17-year-old trees and gardens
Notably absent: smart home features, EV charging, hotel-style concierge, full mall integration. The Manor offers functional core amenities rather than premium add-ons — which is exactly why rent is cheaper.
7. The “Mature Community” Advantage
One of The Manor’s least-marketed but most valuable features is the depth of its expat community:
- 17+ year-old community — many residents have lived here through multiple lease renewals
- Cross-cultural mix — Korean, Japanese, European, American, Australian, and bilingual Vietnamese families
- Established neighbor networks — playdates, sports clubs, book groups all exist organically
- Familiar staff — security, maintenance, retail tenants often recognize long-term residents
- Settled atmosphere — much less of the constant move-in / move-out churn that newer compounds experience
For renters specifically valuing community continuity (families with kids, long-term assignments, retirees), The Manor offers a depth of community that brand-new compounds simply can’t match.

12. FAQ — The Manor Apartments
Q1: Which tower is best — Manor 1, Manor 2, or Manor B?
Manor 1 (AW) and Manor 2 (AE) are similar — choose based on orientation and view preference. Manor B has the most unit variety and highest penthouses if you want top-floor living.
Q2: Should I rent a renovated or unrenovated unit?
For stays 12+ months and tenants comfortable with dated but functional interiors, unrenovated units offer the strongest value — typically 20-30% cheaper. For stays under 12 months or tenants prioritizing aesthetics, pay the renovated premium.
Q3: Are pets really allowed?
Yes — The Manor has one of the most permissive pet policies on Nguyen Huu Canh. Cats and small-to-medium dogs welcome with $150-300 deposit. Always confirm with landlord in writing.
Q4: Is the pool well-maintained despite the building age?
Yes — Bitexco maintains The Manor to a high operational standard. The pool is regularly cleaned and chemically balanced. Some hardware is older (pool deck tiles, lounge chairs) but core operations are solid.
Q5: How does it compare to renting at Vinhomes Park towers?
The Manor: lower rent, older finishes, smaller amenity menu, more community continuity. Vinhomes Park: newer (2015), more amenities, more density, less community feel. Choice depends on priorities — value vs amenity-richness.
Q6: Are there serviced apartment options inside The Manor?
Yes — some individual landlords operate Manor units as serviced apartments with hotel-style packages (weekly cleaning, included utilities). Useful for 1-6 month stays. Ask VietnamRenty about specific availability.
Q7: How fast can I find and move in?
The Manor has strong rental inventory with regular turnover. Most layouts available within 1-2 weeks. Move-in 3-5 days after deposit.
13. Final Verdict — The Manor
The Manor is the smart value pick in Binh Thanh’s luxury rental market. If you want the prestige location, established community, and core amenities of Nguyen Huu Canh corridor — but you’re not willing to pay Vinhomes Landmark or Sunwah Pearl prices — The Manor is the answer. Best for value-conscious second-term expats, long-stay families, and pet owners.
Compared to alternatives: Saigon Pearl wins for school families. Sunwah Pearl wins for modern premium. The Manor wins for “established + cheap + functional.”
