TL;DR
It depends on the individual condo rules: the management fee generally covers building operations rather than all amenities. Some buildings offer residents free gym access, while pool entry can cost around VND 100,000 per visit or VND 1,000,000 per month.
In high-rise condo buildings, the gym may be free for residents, while the pool and separate water facilities are often charged separately. One reported pool rate is VND 100,000 for a single visit or VND 1,000,000 per month.
Do not assume the management fee includes every amenity. It typically pays for security, lighting, common-area cleaning and lift maintenance, while pool and fitness access follows separate condo rules.
Policies vary widely by condo complex: some include pool and gym access for residents, while others charge separately. Before signing a one-year lease, ask the management office for the full amenity fee list.
