The Launch of Sea Tower – The Second Landmark at Grand Marina, Saigon – Marks a Milestone for JW Marriott’s Urban Branded Residences in Asia-Pacific
The unveiling of Sea Tower, the second tower within Grand Marina, Saigon—the world-class branded residences by Marriott & JW Marriott—represents a significant milestone in introducing JW Marriott’s urban branded residences to the Asia-Pacific region for the first time while officially commencing operations in Vietnam.
Grand Marina, Saigon Inaugurates Sea Tower – The New Epicenter of Luxury Living
On the morning of February 25, 2025, Masterise Homes hosted the grand opening ceremony of Sea Tower at Grand Marina, Saigon, marking a pivotal moment in the luxury real estate sector. The prestigious event took place at No. 2 Ton Duc Thang Street, Ben Nghe Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, gathering distinguished executives from Masterise Homes, Marriott International, and key domestic and international partners.
The Sea Tower is the second completed tower in the Grand Marina, Saigon complex - the world's largest luxury apartment complex under the Marriott and JW Marriott brands. Developed on a prime 10ha land plot at 2 Ton Duc Thang Street, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Grand Marina, Saigon owns a unique location in Bason - an area rich in historical value with more than 200 years of development. This is also the last golden land fund in the city center, where real estate value is increasing due to the scarcity of supply.
The highlight of the Sea Tower lies not only in its strategic location but also in its superior connectivity. With four direct accesses to Ba Son Station on Metro Line 1, residents here can conveniently travel to key areas of the city. This not only brings maximum convenience but also increases the investment value of the project in the long term.
Sea Tower – A 47-Story Architectural Marvel with an Iconic Design
Standing 47 stories tall, Sea Tower boasts a unique L-shaped design, meticulously crafted to optimize panoramic river views. Its striking exterior is adorned with an LED lighting system inspired by the silhouette of the kapok tree, a symbolic element of Saigon’s heritage, blending contemporary elegance with deep cultural roots.
With a human-centered approach, Sea Tower is designed based on JW Marriott’s four core design principles:
Thanks to these elements, every residence at Sea Tower is more than just a home—it is a masterpiece, embodying a refined and luxurious lifestyle.
JW Marriott Standard Amenities – Redefining Luxury Living
The Sea Tower not only provides a luxurious living space but also brings international standard amenities, helping residents fully enjoy the class of a JW Marriott hotel right at their own place.
1. Luxury Main Lobby – 24/7 Concierge Service
From the first step into the Sea Tower, residents will be welcomed at the luxurious main lobby, which is covered with high-class marble and displays unique works of art. The concierge service operates 24/7, ready to meet all residents' needs, from booking restaurants, organizing events to arranging transportation.
2. Rooftop Swimming Pool – Unique View
On the 46th floor, the rooftop swimming pool is designed as a resort oasis in the sky, embracing the city and the poetic Saigon River. This is not only an ideal place to relax but also a symbol of luxury, when every moment here is a memorable experience.
3. Health Care and Relaxation Area
The gym, spa and yoga room system at the Sea building are carefully invested to bring a comprehensive health care experience. Residents can enjoy personalized workouts or relax with high-class spa services right on the building premises.
At the inauguration ceremony, Mr. John Hearns, Senior Vice President of Global Branded Residential Operations at Marriott International, emphasized:

This is not only a significant step forward for the branded residences sector but also a testament to the seamless integration of exquisite design, world-class services, and the distinctive JW Marriott lifestyle philosophy."
Ms. Nguyễn Thị Minh Phương, Director of Southern Business Development at Masterise Homes, shared:

This milestone showcases Masterise Homes' ability to forge international collaborations, bringing the highest global standards of luxury living to Vietnamese customers."
The official operational launch of Sea Tower is more than just a milestone for Grand Marina, Saigon; it represents the rapid growth of the branded residences segment in Vietnam. For the first time, JW Marriott has introduced its urban branded residences model in the Asia-Pacific region, with Vietnam as the pioneering market for this landmark debut.
