“Dear all at Macaronis Surf Resort. To spend my milestone 40th birthday in paradise, with my friends and to be treated like royalty is a memory that will forever be etched in my mind. I arrived with 7 friends, and left with 30! I’ll be back! Love you all, Dean Borchardt”
“After searching the globe for the perfect place to have out honeymoon, we decided on Macaronis Resort. A place my husband had visited over 10 years ago. Although I did not cherish the thought of spending a few days travelling, once we arrived it was completely worth it. The accommodations were comfortable and the scenery was beautiful. We were warmly welcomed by Josh and Fiona, not only when we first arrived, but every day. From surfing to fishing, to paddle boarding, snorkelling and even relaxing, the Macas staff knows how to do it! We are sad to see our time come to an end, but we are hopeful that we will see this amazing place again! Thank you all! Love newton & Kimberly Wimer, California”

“I want to share how you made 3 men very, VERY happy. Keith Richardson, James Sullivan, and Peter Weiland came Feb. 20, 2016. I can’t express the praise these men shared with me. From the second they arrived to the day they left. I’ve never heard such praise.From the staff, to the accommodations, to the food, to the boats, to the surf, to the people of Macaroni’s and Indonesia itself. Wow! I think you all KNOW how to do it. Keep on keeping on. I am glad everyone was safe after the recent earthquake you all had while my clients were there. God bless and thank you again! – Brooke Q. Mayes”
“You, and all the staff, were really excellent and I felt especially well looked after, given my fussy diet requirements. Many great memories and friendships made and I’m happy to say that at least I was in the water on a surfboard at Mini Macas. We all had a wonderful time made all the more so by your and Kara’s hosting. Cool bru, thanks again for everything and hope all continues to go well at Maca’s . – Charlie (Duncan)”
“Macas staff, Thank you so much for the trip of a lifetime. The entire staff made the trip, it was truly an unforgettable experience. The waves were good and the sets were better. The food was off the chart, the best I have ever had. The photographers Samia and Marco really made the trip by documenting all of our great times and adventures. Aaron was as kind as could be and made sure we were all taken care of. The wait staff/ bartenders were always smiling and had a cold Bintang at the ready. Thank you Macaronis Resort for one of my best life experiences! – Michael Sullivan “King Cobra”, Georgia.”
“Macas, where to begin. For someone who likes to write, I honestly find myselt at a (near) loss for words as to what to say. Of all the places and countries I’ve been to around the world, I could count on the fingers of one hand the amount of places I would sacrifice a new, exciting journey to return to one of them. Macas has taken a position on that list! I prefer to keep exploring this big beautiful world and go to new places, but I will definitely be back and I hope to see each and every one of you when I do… – Pete Weiland”

“Just a few words! Thank you to Aaron and all the staff! Thank you to Mark and Victor and the other owners for setting up this epic resort.
