The Hatchery was a prawn breeding facility on a lagoon overlooking a deserted beach and nature reserve. It makes for a unique destination for any visitor to the North Coast. The facility has been "lightly" renovated - the end result is a unique blend of comfort and rustic cool. The Hatchery is all about chilling out, letting loose and reconnecting.
We are self-catering; bringing your own supplies in is recommended. Low slung cars can scrape on the road in so leave the Beemer at home for this one or take your time in the way in.
The butlers are available to assist, advice and make your stay as comfortable as possible.
We stepped out and put in linen, bedding, towels and even air-cons and you don't have to share your public with undesirables. No baths, only en-suites with double showers which are good for washing kids once they've had their full and um - well we'd rather not say.
The communal kitchen and dining table is kitted for any culinary adventure you may want to try your hand at, and a cool place to hang out in inclement weather. There are plenty of spots which show different aspects of the bush and beach environment right at the Hatchery or if you prefer to explore try Casuarina Island or one of the lagoons beaches a stone's throw away.
Beach butlers are available to do anything you don't want to (even taking the little monsters - oops we mean darlings - off your hands) or if you just get too chilled out to do anything at all it doesn't matter - enjoy!!!

Reviews
We have such and lovely stay and could definitely not have found a more perfect breakaway from the rat-race. The kids thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the rest of us were able to chill out. The Hatchery is a little gem.
Lovely place to stay. Yes, rustic; however in a special way. Lots of activities to do. 2 nights was not enough.
We had a wonderful time. All the staff were so friendly and helpful and Matthew was very welcoming. We enjoyed it very much indeed.
The stay was excellent.
Hospitality of the hosts and everyone at the Hatchery was excellent and we felt very comfortable and at home.
It was the first time we took our dog on holiday and he enjoyed himself thoroughly.
i will definitely go back to the Hatchery as well as recommend the venue to others who are looking for pet friendly accommodation.
Love Love Love this place!!! Such a Rustic and Relaxed atmosphere. Staff was always friendly and helpful. Beds were lovely slept like a baby.
Feels like you are on an Island away from the world. Best kept secret in Natal.
Will definitely be going every year.
