Luxury Living For As Little As US$500 Per Month
I wrote recently to tell you about Danang, Vietnam, which is emerging as one of the best places in the world to retire comfortably on a small budget. A couple of retirees could live well in this clean, modern, and cosmopolitan city on a budget of US$1,200 per month or less.
One reason that the cost of living overall in Danang is so affordable is because the cost of renting can be super low, especially when considered in terms of the quality of what’s available for rent. This is a city where even an average retiree can afford luxury-standard digs.
Asia Correspondent Wendy Justice has filed a complete guide to retirement in Danang for this month’s issue of our Overseas Retirement Letter. Wendy’s report includes a sampler of current rental offerings, both apartments and houses.
Without giving too much away, here’s a peak at what Wendy has uncovered in this notable city by the sea (Danang’s beach is one of the cleanest, safest, and most attractive in all Southeast Asia)…
- Luxury two-bedroom condo
The top-end Indochina Riverside Tower complex is located in a prime location across the bridge from the riverside promenade in central Danang. Currently available for rent in this building is a fully furnished two-bedroom, two-bath condo on the 13th floor with great views. The lifestyle available here qualifies as truly luxury-level. Rent is US$700 per month, including access to a gym and a swimming pool.
- Fully furnished four-bedroom house near the beach
In Danang, it can be cheaper to rent a house than a condo. Available right now is a spacious four-bedroom house on a quiet, safe street that’s just a five-minute walk to the beach. This three-story house with a terrace and small garden is being rented fully furnished. Again, the property qualifies as luxury-standard and is renting for just US$750 per month.
- Furnished one-bedroom serviced apartment
If you don’t need that much space, how about a fully furnished one-bedroom serviced apartment near the Furama Resort on the coast just south of Danang. The rent is US$500 per month including housekeeping and an ocean view.
- Beach villa
If you’d like to live at the beach, consider the Son Tra District. On offer here right now is a furnished one-bedroom villa with a large yard and a garden that sits just 200 meters from the beach. Rent is US$700 per month.
- Four-bedroom house outside Danang
Again, houses can represent the best value in Danang. This four-bedroom house with a terrace is about 5 kilometers south of Danang near the Furama Resort and will be furnished “to meet the demands of the tenant.” The owner is asking US$500 per month.
- New luxury condo
The Azura building near the Han River Bridge is one of Danang’s newest luxury condominium towers. Available in the building is a one-bedroom apartment on the fifth floor with a big balcony. Your well-heeled life here would cost just US$700 per month.
