Despite six of its gymnasts entering different finals, the Vietnamese delegation failed to make it to the top three in any category.
Prior to the championships, Vietnam had set a target of winning two gold medals.
World Cup winner Phan Thi Ha Thanh stood seventh with 14,750 points in the women's balance beam event.
Her failure was attributed to a knee injury.
Le Thanh Tung was expected to win the men's vault gold, but he blew his chance with a faulty landing. He too ranked seventh, followed by his teammate Nguyen Tien Dat.
In the men's exercise event, Tung came fifth, while Hoang Cuong was placed sixth.
Four-time SEA Games winner Dinh Phuong Thanh was not successful on the parallel bars, his strong point.
The team will next compete in the world tournament in October in Scotland.-VNA
