Abstract

This study aims to analyze the supporting factors in the development of Kampung Wisata Inggris Kebumen (KWIK) as a tourism village in Adiluhur Village, Adimulyo District, Kebumen Regency. A qualitative descriptive approach was used to gain an in-depth understanding of the phenomenon. Informants were selected purposively, including Pokdarwis KWIK Berkah Mandiri management, village officials, tourism business actors, and local community members. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results show that tourism village development is supported by five forms of capital: natural, physical, social, human, and financial capital. Natural capital includes land potential, water resources from the Ketek River, favorable climate, and diverse flora and fauna. Physical capital consists of public facilities, road access, and irrigation networks. Social capital is reflected in strong community cooperation, while human capital is supported by productive-age residents. Financial capital remains limited but is supported by village funds and home ownership. This study recommends future research focusing on sustainability, climate change impacts, and comparative tourism village development.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of tourist motivation on psychological well-being at Curug Gorobog, a natural tourist destination located in Citengah Village, South Sumedang, Sumedang Regency. Employing a quantitative approach with a survey-based methodology, the research utilized primary data as the principal source of information. Respondents were selected through simple random sampling, specifically targeting individuals who had previously visited Curug Gorobog. The final sample comprised 396 participants. Data analysis was conducted using simple linear regression. The findings indicate that tourist motivation exerts a positive and significant influence on the psychological well-being of visitors at Curug Gorobog. This relationship is substantiated by a t-statistic of 22.802 with a significance level of p < 0.05. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.569 suggests that tourist motivation accounts for 56.9% of the variance in psychological well-being, while the remaining 43.1% is attributable to other factors beyond the scope of this study.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a Muslim Friendly Index (MUFIN) as a bottom-up evaluation tool for mapping the halal tourism potential of destinations in Demak Regency. Existing halal tourism indices, such as GMTI and IMTI, are largely top-down and lack sensitivity to local destination conditions. Using a qualitative case study approach, this research assesses 12 major tourism sites through field observation, interviews, and document analysis. MUFIN is constructed based on the ACES framework, Access, Communication, Environment, and Services, adapted to the local religious and cultural context. The findings indicate varying levels of Muslim-friendliness across destinations. The Museum of the Demak Grand Mosque achieved the highest score, while Arnavat Beach ranked the lowest, reflecting gaps in basic halal facilities, environmental hygiene, and service readiness. This study demonstrates MUFIN’s potential as an operational tool for guiding local halal tourism development and evidence-based policy. However, this research is limited to a single regency and a qualitative assessment approach, which may restrict broader generalization. Future studies are recommended to apply MUFIN in other regions and integrate quantitative validation methods.

Abstract

This study focuses on the application of educational tourism in night adventure activities in the Mycelia Forest, Cikole, by reviewing marketing communication strategies, tourist experiences, mindset transformation, and the impact on local communities. The research method used was qualitative through semi-structured interviews with 20 informants and field observations. The results of the study show that: (1) education is delivered through the creative integration of video mapping, animation, storytelling guides, information boards, and interactive rides; (2) tourists experience enjoyable organic learning without feeling like they are in a formal setting; (3) there is a transformation in tourists' mindset about educational tourism from formal and boring to creative and enjoyable; (4) the uniqueness of night adventures creates strong differentiation that drives loyalty and word-of-mouth; (5) destinations have a positive impact on local communities through economic improvement, area image, and infrastructure. This research contributes to the development of sustainable, transformative educational tourism strategies that have a positive impact on both tourists and local communities.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the service capacity and distribution patterns of tourism infrastructure in the Mount Kelud area, Kediri Regency. After the 2014 eruption, the availability of Mount Kelud's tourism infrastructure is still unclear. No research has been conducted to analyze the service capacity and distribution patterns of infrastructure facilities on Mount Kelud. This raises the question of whether the tourism infrastructure at Mount Kelud is adequate to meet the needs of tourists and how it is distributed. This study uses a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional survey design. The researcher uses a scalogram analysis with a Guttman scale to analyze the service capacity of tourism infrastructure. The research sample consists of infrastructure located in Ngancar Subdistrict. The results show that six villages are categorized as adequate, while the other four villages are categorized as inadequate. The distribution pattern of facilities and infrastructure was analyzed using the IDW (Inverse Distance Weighted) interpolation method using QGIS software version 3.44.2. The distribution pattern of Mount Kelud's tourism facilities and infrastructure tends to be concentrated along the main access corridor to the Mount Kelud crater. These findings indicate an imbalance in the distribution of infrastructure that can affect the quality of the tourist experience and the distribution of economic benefits to the local community. Therefore, a spatial-based development strategy is needed to equalize infrastructure, so that villages in the inadequate category can serve as supporting areas and reduce environmental pressure on the core tourist villages. In addition to providing information for readers, this study is expected to contribute to regional tourism planning and policy.

Abstract

This study aims to synthesize and examine existing research on happiness at work (HAW) within the hospitality industry. This paper identified how the construct is conceptualized, what organizational mechanisms shape it, and how it influences key organizational outcomes.  A systematic narrative review methodology was adopted, combining the structured transparency of systematic selection with the interpretive depth of narrative synthesis. Following PRISMA guidelines, a total of 15 peer-reviewed articles published between 2016 and 2025 were retrieved from Scopus, Taylor & Francis, and Emerald databases and analysed using thematic synthesis. HAW in hospitality operates not merely as an organizational endpoint but as a dual-capacity construct. The review further highlights that the specific conceptual lens through which HAW is approached determines which mechanisms are most effective and which outcomes are most likely to follow. The hospitality context also introduces industry-specific conditions that shape how happiness manifests and must be managed. Our article offers a more organizationally precise foundation by restricting its scope to workplace happiness, in contrast to prior review that incorporated broader well-being constructs.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of national financial efficiency policies on the performance of the hospitality industry in Lombok and explores how hotel management adapts to these fiscal pressures. It also analyzes regional variations and identifies strategic responses to sustain business performance. A qualitative approach with a multiple case study design was employed across Mataram City, West Lombok, North Lombok, East Lombok, and Central Lombok. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and analysis of operational and marketing documents, and were analyzed using thematic and cross-regional comparative techniques. The findings reveal that financial efficiency policies significantly affect hotels highly dependent on the government Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) segment, particularly in administrative areas such as Mataram City. In contrast, hotels oriented toward leisure markets, international tourists, and experience-based models demonstrate greater resilience. The study highlights that market diversification, marketing repositioning, digitalization, operational efficiency, and adaptive revenue management are critical strategies for enhancing resilience. These results suggest the need for a paradigm shift from reliance on public spending toward more flexible, market-oriented, and sustainable business models in response to evolving national economic policies.
