Surf Macaronis possibly the most fun wave in the World!

Macaronis has got an enviable reputation for being one of the best and most fun waves in the World! Offshore, Onshore, small, big, it just seems to work whatever. This perfect lefthand reef break can give you the tube of your life, long walls that peal at the perfect speed to be hit or rampy sections. This wave brings out the best in almost anyone’s surfing!

Macaronis Surf Resort is the perfect resort to stay and experience this world-class wave. The resort has exclusive access to the wave, allowing only 2 charter boats to moor up during each day, to limit the crowd numbers and get more waves for the resort guests! With its comfortable accommodation, easy access to amazing waves and low crowds, Macaronis really is one of the best surf resorts on the planet.

The Resort

Macaronis Surf Resort is located approximately 90 miles off the West Coast of Sumatra, in the pristine Mentawai Islands. This remote island chain boasts, probably, the highest concentration of truly world-class waves anywhere in the world! Just a 2-minute boat ride from epic, Macaronis, the resort is within 20 minutes boat ride of a range of other seriously good waves!

Enjoy the comfort and privacy of a first-class Mentawai resort just a stone’s throw from one of the world’s best waves! The resort features all the modern conveniences you would expect, including A/C, hot water, a beautiful lagoon-style swimming pool, and an onsite spa, offering massage and skin-treatments. The resort is situated on a clean salt-water lagoon with stunning ocean views and prime access for exploring in paradise.

Waves at Macaronis Resort

The resort has unlimited access to its namesake, Macaronis. A perfect lefthander that works in almost all conditions and all winds. Even when onshore, this wave is super fun, you have to surf it to really understand how good it can be! You’ll be hooked!

Other waves in the area include the merciless lefthand tubes of Greenbush, one of the Mentawai Islands’ other standout performers. Silabhu Left, a mellow lefthand reef break, ideal for surfers new to surfing over reef. Bat Caves, a long, mellow right-hander in an area of outstanding natural beauty. Rags Right, one of the hollowest right-hand tubes in the Southern Mentawai Islands! Rags Left, another high-quality left-hand barrel! There is something for everyone in the region, all being easily accessed with the resort’s speed boat!

Why We Love Macaronis Resort

Unlimited access to the ‘funnest’ left in the world!

The onsite team really knows how to take care of surfers, always making sure that they’re happy and well looked after!

The outstanding natural beauty of the Mentawai Islands is unmissable! The area is still relatively untouched and so beautiful.

Awesome holiday to Hudhuranfushi. Giulia was very helpful and quick to respond and overall we were very impressed with Awave Travel.
Lohi's is a private, on site, awesome left hander that just kept giving. Also had options of 2 daily surf boat trips that went to other local breaks such as Sultans, Ninja's, Cokes, Jails. The surf team are amazing and we scored great waves the whole time we were there.
Stayed in a Sunset family beach villa which was perfect for a family of 4, then upgraded for the last 3 nights to Ocean Villas, both great for different reasons!
Island staff are so helpful and welcoming, and there's a good variety of food options available. Lots of other things to do such as paddleboarding, jet ski-ing, spa treatments, yoga and amazing snorkelling - with sharks, turtles and rays! We also hired bikes to get around and do morning surf checks!
An amazing trip, thank you Awave and Hudhuranfushi!

We had an amazing time on the Mentawai islands booked through Awave Travel.
Giulia was very helpful and available at all times during the booking process. And we had the best time on the Mentawais on the Maki Boat. The staff were amazing. Raul the surf guide was very helpful, friendly and coached us on the waves. Kaique the photographer produced top quality pictures and videos from the water, boat and drone.
Overall very happy and would highly recommend it.

We charted Seafarer for a 10 day trip in the Maldives. We booked with AWAVE about 12 months before. James was super helpful, really responsive and just easy to deal with. We even made a very last minute change to go to the central atolls which he arranged pretty much straight away. The trip itself was unreal, great surf, amazing wildlife and scenery. If you’re thinking about a surf charter, do it and book through these guys!

Awave Travel is the best surf travel agency I have ever booked! They are very professional and responsive to my inquiries and are able to match me with a surf trip appropriate to my interests and skill level. They have an outstanding relationship and reputation with the resorts that they work with, which makes a difference in the consumer experience. Above all, the Awave staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the areas they recommend, as they have actually surfed the spots and stayed at the resorts. For anyone who wants a hassle-free, no worries, relaxing and fun surf adventure, Awave Travel is the way to go!

8 of us stayed at Hudhuranfushi for my 50th birthday celebration. The resort and services were amazing. James and the team at AWAVE stayed in contact from the beginning to end to ensure we had everything we needed. Great experience. Definitely looking forward to booking our next trip with AWAVE in the near future.

We spent amazing days in Morocco in Amouage. Was an amazing stay and the full surf package offered by AWAVE was great.
All the people were very nice and coaches were amazing. Booking was very smooth, answered all my questions and they took care of everything.
I took the coaching package and had a great time and learning. The teacher was great, very patient and explained everything very nice and calm. Felt safe all the time and had a lot of fun as well.
My boyfriend had the guiding package and he also had a great time. He was always taken to the spots that fitted his level and enjoyed the full when conditions were nice.

We stayed at Ayada in Maldives and I can't be more complimentary of AWAVE! Awesome and patient advise over whatsapp on which resort to go to with extremely details local knowledge on surf conditions, wave spots, resort quality, which atolls to go to, etc. I followed their recommendation and it was spot on. Easy booking on short notice before the trip, can't thank James enough!

Our remarkable trip was 12 months in the planning.it was awkward to organize because there was so many people coming and going over our two week chartered cruise.
I can’t speak highly enough of AWAVE and more to the point ,the wonderful Giulia Manfrini. She is so caring and sweet and far above and beyond any travel consultant that I have ever worked with
Thankyou Giulia for all your prompt answers to my gazillion questions
You are “Simply the best”.
Now onto the Carpe Diem
The trip of a lifetime was had by all 20 of us
The Captain and crew worked tirelessly to pander to our every whim
They would not allow us to lift a finger
Our Barmen Shawn and Cook ( still can’t pronounce his name ) were superb, the food was first class and varied and the alcohol flowed like a river
Our Surf guide “Seppe” found waves for us every day except for two while we travelled deep into the central Attols
We were greatful for the rest
We snorkeled with the sharks and visited uninhabited Islands spent an afternoon being spoiled at a high class resort .
All in all an Awsome trip

James helped us organize our trip in April for my partner and I in the Mentawai.
First, lets discuss the service : James was super clear and reactive. We received a list of resorts with different price ranges and he provided all the elements for us to decide based on our needs and budget. We felt very supported for the organization and we even received so advices few days before leaving for packing.
I was a bit afraid as i'm not a good surfer so i reach out many times to understand how I could still try and learn and James always replied very quick and with all the info i need.
Then when we arrive : it was super well organized, everything went smooth and we fell in love with the place and people. We can tell they really worked on their resort selection and travel organization and we trust our next adventure will be as qualitative.
Already recommended their service ;).
