Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the extent of the readiness of Morotai Island's cultural tourism destinations, especially at the Museum Trikora and Army Dock Beach tourist attractions, in applying the principles of sustainable tourism. These two objects were chosen because the management and facilities at the location have not been optimally developed, despite having high historical value. Research Methods: This research uses a qualitative descriptive method, where data collection techniques are carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation. Result and discussion: The findings show that both Museum Trikora and Army Dock Beach are not fully prepared to implement sustainable tourism principles. Museum Trikora has damaged facilities and restricted activities, while Army Dock Beach lacks official management and adequate facilities. Community involvement and coordination among agencies are limited. Implication: From the results of observations in the field and by approaching five main aspects, namely management, infrastructure and facilities, community involvement, environmental and cultural preservation, as well as promotion and accessibility, it was found that the level of understanding and involvement of the community and managers towards the principles of sustainable tourism is still relatively low. This research concludes that improving management, active community involvement, and strengthening supporting facilities are important steps to realize a more sustainable cultural tourism destination.

Abstract

This research aims to see the influence of tourist facilities, tourist attractions, and visitor satisfaction on interest in revisiting the Ngilngof Tourism Village in Southeast Maluku. A quantitative research design was used to answer these objectives. A total of 78 tourists were actively involved in this research, and they were visitors who made repeat visits, with the characteristic respondents being those who had visited at least two times or were making their 2nd visit to Ngilngof Tourism Village. A purposive sampling technique was used to select research respondents. Multiple regression data analysis with the help of SPSS was used to see the influence of the independent variable on the dependent. The research results show that both partially and simultaneously, the variables of tourist facilities, tourist attractions, and visitor satisfaction have a positive and significant effect (p<.05) on interest in repeat visits. Not only that, the contribution of these three variables reached 79.3%, which shows a huge influence on the dependent variable. The results of this research provide great benefits regarding the factors that must be maintained and improved by the managers of the Ngilngof Tourism Village so that tourist visits to their location will be even better.
