To ride your waves and be so privileged to feel your hospitality, your smiling, beautiful Indonesian faces, and the sunset and landscapes is an experience of the highest level in life. To be barrelled with new friends, to laugh ourselves senseless and to celebrate life is pure magic. And to see Elizabeth Murray, ride waves without eyesight is the most inspirational courage and commitment I could ever imagine. I’m so lucky to have been a part of it. The highest thanks and love to all the staff- I would, and hope to in future, do anything for you I can. Ado”

To all the Macaronis staff – kitchen, cleaning, engineering, boats, restaurant and office, you do an amazing job of making everyone’s time special. Paul”

It is such an awesome coaching clinic that really wants to help you improve. They go out of their way to help and do their very best. The rooms are very comfortable and clean, with awesome views. It’s hard to get here, but it’s worth the trek. Also, we enjoyed the guitar and PA system to play with. Chris & Heidi”
“The past 3 weeks have been way better than I expected. I’ve improved in a way I’ve never thought I could do it that quickly. Reasons for the improvement are definitely the amazing surf coaches. And last but not least, the waves, the best thing ever! Go here and surf it by yourself! It will be better than you imagine. N”

Even for Greta, as a beginner, it was great to surf every day, practice and get help from the coaches. She improved massively in just 2 weeks. Thanks for everything. Greta & Ale”

“Thanks so much to the amazing Macaronis crew for hosting us. I thought the kids and I would be a bit bored for 2 weeks while the surfers went out… not at all! We had the best time snorkelling, kayaking, taking day trips, and, best of all, learning to surf at Fish Fingers. Hands down, it was the best family holiday we’ve ever had. It felt like hanging out with family the past couple of weeks. The only downside is that 2 weeks isn’t enough. Much love – Emilia, Dave, Phoebe, Frankie”

This was my first overseas trip, and I am so happy that I got to come here (my kids are so jealous). I would love to go back and will highly recommend Macaronis to other people. I loved learning to surf and am pretty sure I will buy a longboard and keep it up. It’s been so much fun, thank you.”
“Hey guys, I can’t thank you enough. The way you have treated my family has been second to none. Our stay has been such an amazing time. Macaronis staff have been the most gentle and respectful people I have encountered; Heartfelt. Thank you for you all. – Christ, Endy, Richelle, Mad, Kirra & Isaac”
“Little Johny went to Macaronis for the left-hander of his life. He met Dave, a coach. He said it is his favourite surf spot. This is why you should go to Macaronis. – John”
“The first time we visited Maccas, it was far exceeding our expectations. Absolutely outstanding staff. You all made us so welcome. The surf was perfect, although it could have been bigger. My only regret is that one week is not long enough. We will book 2 weeks next time. – The Don Family”
