Derived from the ancient African philosophy Ubuntu — “I am because we are” — our ethos celebrates humanity, connection, and shared purpose.
At Ubuntu Exclusive, conservation and community lie at the heart of everything we do. We invite a select few guests to engage deeply in hands-on wildlife and habitat preservation across one of South Africa’s most pristine private sanctuaries.
Hosting just ten guests within 54,000 acres of protected wilderness in the Eastern Cape, we offer Africa’s lowest guest-to-land ratio — ensuring absolute privacy, personalized experiences, and no crowds or convoy-style safaris.
Every stay transcends the traditional safari: it’s a journey of purpose, education, and connection — a reminder that by protecting nature together, we protect ourselves.

At its core, Ubuntu Exclusive represents more than a luxury experience—it embodies a purposeful journey rooted in the African philosophy of interconnectedness.
Every destination, encounter, and curated moment is designed to support wildlife, marine, and habitat conservation on a global scale. Guided by an expert team that embodies lifelong dedication to protecting the natural world, Ubuntu Exclusive offers guests the rare opportunity to experience pristine environments while actively contributing to their preservation.
By immersing our guests in these vital ecosystems and sharing the stories of the species and communities that depend on them, Ubuntu Exclusive fosters a deeper understanding of our collective responsibility. This purpose-driven approach ensures that each experience not only inspires but directly benefits conservation efforts, creating a positive impact that extends far beyond the journey itself.

Ubuntu Exclusive was founded by Suzete Vicente, CEO of Seloquence and a seasoned professional known within influential circles worldwide. Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, Suzete has long held a profound passion for wildlife conservation and philanthropy. Her achievements to date have earned her significant credibility among global brands and leaders.
Suzete's devotion to nature and animals keeps her grounded, and she loves sharing these values with those who embody the same kindness and respect for the world around them.
A true powerhouse, the Ubuntu Exclusive team are renowned for delivering exceptional guest experiences, as they collectively hold unwavering determination in making a difference.
By sharing these causes with the world, Suzete believes we inspire collective responsibility, strengthen global awareness, and foster collaboration that benefits not only wildlife but the health and balance of the planet as a whole.

It takes a village to maintain and protect 54,000 acres of protected land. Ubuntu Exclusive was created through the spirit of connection, which sums up the family team dynamic of committed and skilled professionals, focused on crafting thoughtful guest experiences, while keeping conservation at the centre of the team's mission. Their work is driven not by recognition, but by a genuine desire to contribute to lasting, positive change.

At Ubuntu Exclusive, every visit holds the promise of something extraordinary — where even returning guests uncover new wonders. Witness the majesty of breaching whales, explore the world’s largest breeding colony of African penguins, or glide along the river aboard our elegant Watermark Marine 7500 vessel.
Our unwavering commitment to ocean and marine conservation enhances every experience, seamlessly blending adventure, education, and refined luxury.

Our newly launched five-star residence offers an exclusive retreat designed for ultimate comfort and indulgence. Featuring five elegantly appointed double suites, each with a private en-suite bathroom, every detail reflects refined sophistication.
Guests can unwind in the solar-heated pool, two spa jacuzzis, or outdoor shower, and rejuvenate in the fully equipped gym, sauna, steam room, or cold plunge bath. A serene treatment room offers bespoke wellness massages, ensuring a truly restorative stay.
A sanctuary where privacy and exclusivity are paramount.
