Memit Beach · Morella Village · Central Maluku
A villa, rooms, and glamping tents on the quiet north coast of Ambon Island — complete with a free-use boat, beachfront gazebos, and sunsets you never have to chase.
About Shafira Resort
Shafira Resort sits on Memit Beach in Morella, a coastal village in Leihitu District known for its glass-clear water and unhurried pace. Days here follow the sea: mornings for swimming or paddling the boat, midday for grilling fish in a gazebo, late afternoons for watching the sun sink into the water.
We built this resort for families and groups who want to truly be together — no crowded tourist beach, no schedule, just the Morella sea and unhurried time.

Resort Facilities
No infinity pools or five-star spas here. What we provide are the things you actually use at the beach: a boat, gazebos, a working kitchen, and a signal that never dies.
Paddle at your own pace along the calm waters off the beach — free for staying guests.
Gazebos dot the shoreline for long afternoons, shared meals, or a nap in the sea breeze.
Simple meals and drinks are available on site — no need to leave the resort for a bite.
A gas stove and complete cookware are provided. Bring fresh fish from the market and grill it by the beach.
Satellite internet covers the entire resort — stay connected at the edge of the Morella sea.
Explore Around Morella
Morella and its surroundings hold some of Ambon Island's finest spots — all reachable within minutes of the resort.
± 10 minutes by car
Morella's most famous snorkeling and diving spot. The water is glass-clear — fish swim right up to the entry steps on the shoreline.
± 15 minutes by car
A natural spring that flows straight into the sea — cool freshwater meets warm saltwater at a single point. A favorite bathing spot since colonial times.
± 30-minute uphill walk
A hilltop site of Morella's resistance against colonial forces. From the top, the Seram Sea stretches wide — worth every step of the climb.
± 30 minutes by car
Nearly a kilometer of fine white sand, once named by the UNDP among the most beautiful beaches in Indonesia.
Right in front of the resort
The resort's home beach and its best sunset stage. Come late afternoon, the sky over the sea turns orange — take a gazebo seat and watch.

Guest Stories
The kids played with the boat until they lost track of time while we grilled fish in front of the villa. In the evening everyone gathered in a gazebo to watch the sunset. It felt like having a beach of our own.
We picked the glamping tent and have no regrets — falling asleep to the waves, waking up to the sea. In the morning we snorkeled at Lubang Buaya, just minutes from the resort.
The Starlink is genuinely fast. I worked remotely for two days from a gazebo overlooking the sea, then gave the whole weekend to my family. A hard combination to find.
Clean grounds, warm hosts, and a calm beach — none of the tourist-beach crowds. The big villa fit our group of eight with room to spare.
