We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Vietnam is like. They answered...
"Expat homes and apartments in Vietnam are typically designed for comfort and convenience. Amenities such as modern kitchens, air conditioning, washers and dryers, and digital amenities (cable TV and high-speed internet) are often included. Apartments tend to be quite large, sometimes featuring multiple bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas, perfect for families or groups of friends. Furniture may either be inspired by the traditional Vietnamese style or a mix of modern and traditional. Additionally, most expat homes and apartments will have many added creature comforts, such as a balcony, terrace, garden or pool," said a member in Vietnam.
