The Rise of Exclusive Travel: Why Privacy Is the New Luxury

The way people travel is changing. More travellers are moving away from crowded hotels and shared spaces, choosing instead to stay in exclusive use accommodation that offers privacy, comfort, and flexibility.
A More Meaningful Travel Experience
At In Abundance in Montagu, exclusive use is not a feature — it’s the foundation of the experience. Every stay is private, personal, and designed to support rest, connection, and simplicity.-
When people stay together in one shared space, connections deepen. Meals are shared, conversations last longer, and the experience becomes more personal and memorable.
Privacy and Comfort
One of the biggest benefits of exclusive use accommodation is privacy. There are no shared spaces, no unknown guests, and no interruptions. Families, friends, and small groups can relax fully, knowing the entire space belongs to them.
Perfect for Retreats and Group Getaways
Exclusive use properties are ideal for retreats — including wellness retreats, hiking retreats, creative retreats, and cycling groups. Hosts have the freedom to structure their programme without restrictions, while guests enjoy a calm, uninterrupted environment.
Flexibility of Stay
Exclusive use accommodation offers flexibility that traditional lodging cannot. Guests can choose between self-catering, fully serviced, or catered options, depending on their needs. This makes it suitable for a wide range of travellers — from families to corporate teams and wellness groups.
