“…The survey of 2021 had only one additional question and referred to the intention to use ecolabels at the level of tourist destinations in the post-COVID-19 pandemic phase. This form of linear research is increasingly used in tourism and mostly is used to determine changes in the attitudes of tourists in the observed period [73][74][75][76]. Based on those studies, and due to the numerous positive characteristics, which offer longitudinal research in this case, it was used to determine whether there are changes in the attitudes of DMOs in the application of ecolabels at the level of a tourist destination [77].…”

The research aimed to explore whether ecolabels could be used as innovation tools to achieve sustainable tourism development (STD) at the level of a tourist destination. The paper used results obtained by a questionnaire survey among destination management organizations (DMOs) in cities and municipalities to investigate how much ecolabels are used at the level of tourist destinations in a case study of the Republic of Croatia (in 2017 and 2021). DMOs were chosen as the subject of research due to their crucial role in the development of tourist destinations. The findings from the linear research indicate that DMOs in Croatia still do not recognize the importance and role of implementation of tourist ecolabels as an innovation tool in achieving sustainable tourism development at the destination level. The paper provides new theoretical insights into the application of ecolabels at the level of cities and municipalities as tourist destinations. Thus, it could induce future research by scholars in this field because an analysis of academic literature indicates that there is a lack of such research. Moreover, the results given by this research could provide a basis for DMOs to start to think in a different way about the application of ecolabels at the level of a tourist destination.

“…According to the official data available from the CBS (2019), Croatia recorded 16.6 million arrivals and 83.16 million overnights in 2018. According to data available from the TOMAS Summer 2017 survey on attitudes and expenditures of tourists in Croatia (Marušić et al, 2018) and the TOMAS 2018 survey on attitudes and expenditures of health tourists in Croatia (Marušić et al, 2019), it can be estimated that approximately 1.1% of all tourists visiting Croatia are mainly or partly motivated by medical tourism needs. This share corresponds to approximately 186,400 visitors and 932,200 overnights.…”

The current study intends to contribute to a better understanding of the medical tourism experience. In particular, this study uses data from a survey-based study conducted on a sample of 1,209 medical tourists in Croatia. On the one hand, this study aims to explore and shed light on the decision-making process of medical tourists, and, on the other hand, to reveal which elements of both the medical institution and the destination where it is located, have largest potentials to drive medical tourist delight and/or frustration, in accordance with the three-factor theory of customer satisfaction.

“…Þaer geta veitt dýpri skilning en stakar rannsóknir og eru í raun eina leiðin til að greina raunverulegar breytingar sem eiga sér stað á ferðamannastöðum (Kuentzel og Heberlein, 2003). Langtímarannsóknir þar sem þróun á ánaegju ferðamanna á ferðamannastöðum á víðernum og öðrum lítt röskuðum náttúruskoðunarstöðum er greind eru mjög takmarkaðar, ekki aðeins hér á landi heldur einnig á heimsvísu (Marušić, 2017;Wall-Reinius og Bäck, 2011). Upplýsingar um breytingar til lengri tíma eru hins vegar mjög mikilvaegar til að viðhalda samkeppnishaefni staðanna og eru grundvöllur sjálfbaerrar nýtingar þeirra ef aetlunin er að nýta náttúruna sem auðlind fyrir ferðaþjónustuna (Butler, 1999).…”

Langtímarannsóknir í ferðamálafræðum fela í sér söfnun sambærilegra gagna á a.m.k. tveimur tímapunktum, ásamt greiningu og samanburði á gögnunum á milli tímabilanna sem um ræðir. Í þeim er leitast við að skilja hvernig og hvers vegna mismunandi þættir ferðaþjónustunnar og ferðamannastaða, sem og viðhorf ferðamanna, breytast. Langtímarannsóknir sem greina hvernig ánægja ferðamanna þróast á ferðamannastöðum sem einkennast af lítt raskaðri náttúru og víðernum eru mjög takmarkaðar, ekki aðeins hér á landi heldur einnig á heimsvísu. Slíkar upplýsingar eru hins vegar mjög mikilvægar til að viðhalda samkeppnishæfni staðanna og eru grundvöllur sjálfbærrar nýtingar þeirra. Í þessari grein er greint frá niðurstöðum langtímarannsóknar á ánægju ferðamanna í Landmannalaugum. Rannsóknin er byggð á könnunum í formi spurningalista sem voru lagðir fyrir ferðamenn í Landmannalaugum sumrin 2000, 2009 og 2019. Alls fengust svör frá um 2.900 einstaklingum. Meginmarkmiðið var að greina hvernig ánægja ferðamanna og skynjun þeirra á fólksfjölda, umhverfinu og innviðum hefur breyst á árunum 2000, 2009 og 2019. Niðurstöður leiddu í ljós að ferðamenn eru almennt mjög ánægðir með dvöl sína á svæðinu en þær benda einnig til þess að ánægja ferðamannanna sé að dvína. Ástæður þess eru margvíslegar en tengjast annars vegar innviðum, skipulagi og þjónustu og hins vegar vaxandi fjölda ferðamanna.
