The Premiere Family Surf Resort in the Mentawai Islands, Indonesia

Macaronis Resort is like no other on earth…

Imagine, empty white sand beaches extending into clear warm water where perfect waves peel around the reef… its the kind of place dreams are made of!

Voted by the pros as the most fun wave to surf in the world, Macas is undoubtedly one of the world’s most consistent and rippable left-hand reef breaks. 

Discovered in the 1980’s and kept secret for over a decade, Macaronis popularity skyrocketed when word got out. Eventual introduction of tourism regulations now support a sustainable carrying capacity of 40 surfers daily.

What remains mostly unrealized is the quality of uncrowded surf during shoulder and summer months, when warmer weather keeps Southern hemisphere surfers closer to home.

Families & Non-Surfers Love Macaronis Resort!

All guest accommodation is raised up from ground level with exceptional amenities and incredible 360° views of the lagoon and ocean. Most ground-level bungalows in the Mentawais do not have such wonderful sea-breezes and the comforts gained in a nicely insulated building.

Catering to the family surf holiday, children under 6 are free and non-surfing & beginner guests visit at half price! Choose from any all-inclusive surf trip package on a year-round schedule with 4,5,8,11,12 & 15 surf day options!

For those who don’t surf, there are heaps of fun activities accessible right from the resort doorstep including snorkeling, stand up paddling, jungle walks and the opportunity to learn surfing at the most fun and gentle beach break.

Macaronis Resort is truly a little slice of heaven, come visit!

Macaronis Resort is Open Year Round!

April – October is regarded as the most consistent time for larger waves in the Mentawai Islands and Macaronis. This is when the Indian Ocean is producing storms regularly and swell is usually more intense. May – September will likely book out the quickest.

March & November are considered shoulder months, where world class surf can be scored with less people around. March especially offers a great opportunity, as warmer weather and optimal surf conditions keep most surfers in the Southern hemisphere closer to home.

December – February is the Summer Season, where glassy surf in the 2-4 ft range is still common, with low or no crowds. Surfers visit Macaronis Resort for 30% off from December – February!
