"Fantastic venue for relaxing or a party"

"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."

"My wife and I spent 3 days here over the weekend of our 40th wedding anniversary - it was a perfect choice for an intimate retreat with fishing, walks, an afternoon lazing and eating / drinking at the nearby Prawn Shak. We had the Pump Room with a great view.
The place has all the basic personal comforts and catering necessities - quite a surprise after the first sighting. Staff were very good and friendly as well. We will certainly be back again."


"Hidden gem"

(South Africa) Sander Slager

"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.

(South Africa) Kim Cooper

"We had a wonderful, relaxing time. Penny and the rest of the staff are warm and welcoming. The Hatchery is a quirky environment with all you need to have a happy time. The price is reasonable, just remember that you have not paid for 5 star accommodation but this hidden treasure is value for money."

"Unique"

(South Africa) Robert Palmer

"The Hatchery is very unique.

Its not your typical beach/lagoon holiday. It is very relaxing and the staff is supremely helpful.

The island is something to behold, not a single person in sight.

"Unique gem"

(South Africa) Jacqui Scott

"This is a gem of a spot and an example of the saying 'Don't judge a book by its cover'. It may not be pretty outside but it is comfortable and uniquely peaceful. Remember to bring every consumable you need. They provide only bathroom and dishwashing soap and matches."


"Strange and mysierious"

(France) Barnaud Antoine

"After a difficult road you arrive in a very strange place, in first you think that you are not in the good place, then, the very kind Penelope appears and inside the industrial building you have another world, confortable and charming, you are in front of the lagoon with (this day) the ocean unchain..."

"Awesome time"

(South Africa) Frances O'Connor

"We had the most wonderful time there, your place is beautiful, just too short a stay, it was so peaceful, everything we needed it to be. Thank you so much, your staff are so helpful and friendly, we will definitely be back but for a longer period next time."


"Chilled"

(South Africa) Wendy Gahagan

"Great beach nearby. We really enjoyed our stay, felt as if we'd been away for a month, even though it was only three nights. Really relaxing. The staff were great, unobtrusive, but really efficient and observant. Loved the funky little touches everywhere."


"Slice of heaven"

(South Africa) Allison Ellman

"It is truly an escape from reality with gorgeous accommodation, lovely staff and miles of deserted beaches. Can't wait to go back."


"A great place to unwind"

(South Africa) Lynthea

""It's kind of like camping, but without a tent!", said my 11-year old.
Don't let the rustic look of the buildings put you off - our room was clean and neat and the beds were comfortable.
Our stay was relaxing and rejuvenating.
The only disappointment was that the much - vaunted "butlers"..."

The only disappointment was that the much - vaunted "butlers" were nowhere in evidence and we had to find our own way around."
