“…The sustainability of tourist destinations is a key factor for success and development both in the present and in the future [140]. Despite the growing importance of tourism due to its contribution to the economies of many countries and the global economy, and also as a research field in recent decades, in the analysis of tourism sustainability (and especially its measurement) there is still no consensus about the methodology to use for its measurement [116].…”

“…This intelligence is specific to the destination and is user oriented, thus providing a source of intangible competitive advantage, and is therefore more difficult to imitate or copy. In this sense, the interrelation with residents and their involvement in the generation of experiences is a key success factor [140,142].…”

“…These memorable experiences must exceed expectations and delight tourists [143]. The integration and participation of residents in the generation of memorable experiences has also become a fundamental factor of success, as shown by some studies [140], so their motivation and involvement will be fundamental, as well as their prospects for future benefits and how they influence the sustainability of the destination, as previous scholars have suggested [144].…”

“…As can be observed in Table 5, the probability associated with chi-squared reached a value higher than 0.05 (0.18179), indicating a good overall fit of the scale [137]. Convergent validity was demonstrated on the one hand because the factor loadings were significant and higher than 0.5 [135,[138][139][140] and, on the other hand, because the average variance extracted (AVE) for each of the factors was higher than 0.5 [136]. As for the reliability of the scale, the indices of composite reliability of each of the dimensions obtained were higher than 0.6 [135].…”

The Importance of Sustainability in the Loyalty to a Tourist Destination through the Management of Expectations and Experiences

Sustainability has become one of the key factors for the development of tourism both nowadays and in the future. The need to integrate environmental, socio-cultural and economic factors is a consequence of the evolution of society itself, the introduction of new information and communication technologies (ICTs) and a new way of understanding tourism and the world in general. Tourists increasingly seek a unique quality in their travels and are better informed before deciding on a tourist destination to spend their holidays or leisure time. They want to have unique, memorable experiences, and because of that, they are willing to look for those destinations that can offer them something different. The generation of expectations is no longer the sole responsibility of companies and public and private organizations in destinations, since information may be in the hands of the individuals themselves who can share it in social networks, blogs, or on platforms such as Booking or TripAdvisor, among others. This forces companies and public and private organizations to rethink the way in which and when they relate to tourists in general. With all these considerations, one of the objectives of this study was to analyse the way in which sustainability interrelates with the generation of expectations, experiences and perceptions and the effect on the possibilities of returning to a tourist destination and even recommending it in social networks to friends and acquaintances. For this reason, the destination of Acapulco, Guerrero, Mexico, was chosen, a mature destination of sun and beach that, in recent years, has been immersed in a process of change where one of the axes is sustainability. This study used a convenience survey with 310 valid questionnaires with tourists who stayed more than three days in Acapulco during the months of December 2016 to February 2017. The questionnaires were completed at different points of the destination and by participants over 18 years of age. We used SEM (Structural Equations Modeling) and EQS (Structural Equation Modeling Software) for statistical analysis. The results of the study showed how expectations influenced experiences and the intention to return to the destination and recommend it (WOM), thus, we proposed a series of recommendations for public and private agents that manage this tourist destination.

Clungup is an area in Malang, East Java, which has good coastal and mangrove resources. It tends to be a potential tourism and has the opportunity as a tourist area. Readiness of managers and the surrounding community to manage the existing coastal resources is another reason. The combination of management, government and community and coastal resources, became the focus of this research using Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) analysis generated from RapTourism (Rapid Appraisal for Tourism) approach. The sustainability of resource management as an asset from tourism through three dimensional approaches, namely ecological, social, and management dimension. Rainfall, mangrove species diversity, community knowledge level of resources, community dependence on the region, interaction level between manager and stakeholders as the most sensitive attributes. Monte Carlo analysis shows that the ecological and management dimension are in stable stage, while for the social dimension is quite stable because it is very vulnerable to change. This study proposes four recommendations to maintain the sustainability of the tourism area in Clungup Beach. The recommendations include the regulations to manage the exploitation of coastal areas, an adequate infrastructure to support the safety of tourists, develop environmentally friendly tourism activities, and strict regulations in expanding tourism in the areas.Keyword: tourism management, sustainable tourism, rapid appraisal for tourism, multidimensional scaling, Clungup. ABSTRAKClungup adalah suatu daerah wisata pantai dengan sumber daya terumbu karang dan mangrovenya yang berada di Kabupaten Malang. Potensi yang dimiliki daerah ini cukup besar untuk dikembangkan menjadi daerah kunjungan wisata. Namun demikian, harus dikaji mengenai kesiapan pengelolaan dan penerimaan masyarakat sekitar. Hal ini merupakan salah satu kondisi yang harus dipertimbangkan dalam pengembangan suatu area wisata. Fokus penelitian ini pada kesiapan dari manajemen dalam mengelola area wisata, dukungan pemerintah dan masyarakat, serta kondisi dari sumber daya terumbu karang dengan menggunakan analisis Multidimensional Scaling yang diperoleh melalui pendekatan RapTourism. Analisis keberlanjutan pengelolaan sumber daya alam sebagai aset wisata dilakukan melalui tiga pendekatan dimensi, yaitu dimensi ekologi, dimensi sosial, dan dimensi menajemen. Atribut yang paling sensitif pada obyek penelitian adalah curah hujan, jenis mangrove, pengetahuan masyarakat tentang lingkungan, ketergantungan masyarakat terhadap sumberdaya pesisir, dan interaksi antara kelompok pengelola dengan stakeholder. Hasil analisis Monte Carlo menunjukkan bahwa dimensi ekologi dan manajemen pada tahap stabil, sedangkan dimensi sosial paling dinamis dan mudah berubah. Terdapat empat rekomendasi pengelolaan area wisata di Pantai Clungup, yaitu peraturan pengelolaan eksploitasi kawasan pesisir, infrastruktur yang memadai untuk mendukung keselamatan wisatawan, mengembangkan kegiatan pariwisata yang ramah lingkungan, dan peraturan ketat dalam memper...

This study investigates the residents' attitudes to tourism as a driver of regional development and the impact of digital technologies on these perceptions. This work considers a 'lagging behind' region of the EU and employs a generalised ordered logit regression. The main findings suggest that the positive attitude is affected by the digital technology use, education, non-job variables and touristic products such as landscape, food and wine and events. As a result, the digital technology and the enhancement of touristic products may serve as important factors for 'lagging behind' regions to meet a smart, sustainable and inclusive growth.
