About The Hatchery - beach and lagoon experience

The hatchery is an ex-prawn hatchery right on a river overlooking a deserted beach and nature reserve. It is ideally situated a few minutes off the N2 freeway and less than an hour from King Shaka International Airport. We are a springboard for your journey to St Lucia and Isimangaliso, the Kruger, The Battlefields, The Elephant Coast and even Swaziland and Mozambique. The hatchery is also a unique destination to in itself and is a must do for any visitor looking for a real experience of what africa was like....Guests often feel that something about this place is special. We hav

Beach: The Hatchery overlooks a deserted lagoon and beach.

Wedding Venues: The Wedding Venue contains a ceremony deck or alternatively offers a ceremony on the dunes with views of the lagoon, sea, and reserve, a reception area, and can cater for up to 100 guests.

Conference Venues: The hatchery offers an intimate and relaxing space for team building and conferencing.

Family friendly: Children love the hatchery - no need to encourage them, they play naturally in the unique environment

Romantic: There is no shortage of special spaces to spend alone time at the hatchery, it really is great for rekindling those vital connections we seem to loose in our modern fast paced world.

The rooms are dirty, each room could have its own braai, as well as the area near the pools. Generally the place is run-down & dirty. It is not a credit to its location.

A large group of us just spent the weekend at the Hatchery, I will definitely go again. The rooms look VERY rustic from the outside but are quite comfortable inside. The venue is very family friendly with the 'gintank' and the 'tonic pools' available to cool off during the day or entertain the adults in the evening. The staff is friendly and helpful.

We only stayed here one night, but it was worth it. The room was clean and the setting beautiful. There is a community kitchen with a fridge and all staff is really helpful.
