Ho Chi Minh Municipality pet-friendly rentals

Set in lush gardens with an enormous and lovely pool and playground area, this unit was clean and comfortable. We booked for 5 people, but the 5th "bed" was just a sofa but other than that, it was a mostly self contained unit with washing machine, cookware, etc. It is about $10AUD cab ride from District 1, but delightfully quiet compared to the frenetic hustle and bustle of downtown. There are enough reasonably priced food venues nearby for when you just want to stay close to home.

I highly recommend Oackwood Residence Saigon. The staff at the front desk are wonderful. The rooms are well equipped and extremely clean. The restaurant on the ground floor is lovely. My only complaint is that the restaurant serves vegetarian dishes during the day but not in the evening - which seems very odd if you want a vegetarian meal in the evening. Luckily the Oakwood is near a good shopping mall that has a great pizza restaurant with lots of vegetarian options. Check in and Check out was really efficient - staff are lovely.
