This study explores the implementation of community-based tourism village development policy in Selindung Jerambah Gantung, Pangkalpinang City. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and policy document analysis. Participants included members of the local tourism awareness group (Pokdarwis), community leaders, and tourism office representatives. The findings reveal three central themes: (1) limited community participation and informal management structure, (2) inadequate tourism infrastructure such as boats and docks, and (3) a significant gap between policy planning and on-ground execution. Despite the presence of regulatory frameworks and strategic plans, the policy has not yet been translated into tangible actions aligned with local needs. The study contributes to the discourse on community-based policy implementation and calls for more adaptive and participatory approaches. It also recommends institutional mentoring and the development of basic infrastructure to ensure the sustainability of tourism village initiatives
