Abstract

Sport tourism makes a significant contribution to the economy by increasing tourist participation and strengthening the appeal of tourist destinations. The Indonesian government’s policies in supporting culture-based sport tourism, such as Mepantigan, are reflected in various regulations and strategic programs. One of the key policies is the development of culture-based tourism as stated in the National Tourism Development Master Plan (RIPPN) 2011–2025, in which the government is committed to promoting and preserving local culture as part of tourism attractions. This study aims to design a sport tourism development model through educational videos of the Mepantigan attraction in Batubulan, Bali. Mepantigan is a traditional Balinese martial art that holds great potential as a culture- and sport-based tourism attraction. However, promotion of this attraction on digital platforms remains limited, with content that is not yet educational and relies only on a single social media channel. This study employs a qualitative method using in-depth interviews, participatory observation, documentation study, and focus group discussions. The results show that educational videos using cinematographic approaches and the AIDAS strategy are able to enhance the appeal of Mepantigan as part of sport tourism. The recommended innovative digital platform model includes the use of YouTube and TikTok to reach a wider audience as well as the application of visual techniques such as slow motion to highlight the cultural values and philosophy of Mepantigan. This research is expected to serve as a reference for the development of culture-based sport tourism promotion through digital media. The appropriate development strategy is a growth strategy through the optimization of multichannel digital media (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok) using educational video instruments as the main promotional tool, while simultaneously strengthening Mepantigan branding as an innovative sport tourism attraction in Bali.

Abstract

The importance of educational tourism in Indonesia and Bali lies in its ability to combine education with tourism experiences, empower local communities, and support cultural and environmental preservation. With the right approach, educational tourism can become one of the main pillars in the development of sustainable tourism in Indonesia. The development of educational tourism in Indonesia and Bali not only provides educational benefits for visitors but also supports local economic growth and cultural preservation. With the proper approach, educational tourism can serve as an essential pillar in the development of sustainable and inclusive tourism. This study aims to design an innovative social media content strategy to increase the visibility of culture- and agriculture-based educational tourism at TeBA Majalangu, Kesiman, Bali. The research method used is qualitative with a case study approach, conducted through field observations, in-depth interviews, and social media content analysis. The results show that TeBA Majalangu’s social media is currently managed incidentally, lacking consistency in posting frequency and without a strong narrative structure. Based on these findings, the author developed an innovative social media model consisting of five main content categories: educational storytelling, interactive videos, visual education, user-generated content, and interactive content. As a form of implementation, prototypes were also created, including storyboard reels, educational carousel posts, interactive polls, Instagram feed mockups, and a one-month content calendar. This strategy is expected to serve as a reference for managers in strengthening TeBA Majalangu’s digital image as an educational tourism destination based on local wisdom that is relevant, inspiring, and sustainable. In today’s digital era, social media offers great opportunities to maximize the promotion of educational tourism, strengthen direct interaction with potential visitors, and disseminate information. With the right innovations in social media strategy, TeBA Majalangu is expected to increase the number of visitors and contribute more significantly to empowering local communities.

Abstract

The background of this study is based on the importance of implementing CRM strategies in the hospitality industry, particularly in facing business competition challenges and meeting the ever-evolving needs and expectations of customers. In the context of sharia tourism, which is beginning to develop in West Sumatra, good service and long-term relationships with guests are significant added values for the sustainability of a hotel. The objective of this study was to determine how the CRM concept is implemented at Hotel Royal Denai Bukittinggi, and to what extent CRM contributes to building customer loyalty. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with the Human Resource Development (HRD) department, direct observation of guest service activities, and relevant documentation studies.The research findings indicate that the implementation of CRM at Hotel Royal Denai is still not optimal. The hotel does not yet have an integrated customer data management system, and its communication strategies with guests remain conventional and lack sustainability. Additionally, certain aspects of service, such as the completeness of room facilities, the speed of response to guest complaints, and the friendly attitude of staff, still need improvement. However, the management acknowledges the importance of CRM as a key strategy for enhancing customer satisfaction and fostering long-term relationships with guests.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the strategies of Grand Royal Denai Hotel Bukittinggi in enhancing guest satisfaction through the provision of halal food, considering the growing global halal tourism trend and Indonesia's significant potential as a country with a majority Muslim population. Furthermore, the increasing awareness among Muslim travelers regarding the importance of consuming halal food constitutes an essential background for this research. Employing a qualitative approach with a descriptive method, the study was conducted in October 2024 using data collection techniques including observation, interviews with management and guests, as well as documentation. The data were analyzed using a SWOT approach to identify the hotel’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The results indicate that Grand Royal Denai possesses strengths such as a commitment to halal standards, a professional kitchen team, a strategic location, and menu variety, while its weaknesses include the absence of MUI halal certification and limited digital promotion. The primary opportunity arises from the increasing halal tourism trend, whereas threats involve intense competition among hotels and changes in modern consumer preferences. By leveraging its strategic location and the potential of the halal tourism market, the hotel is able to increase guest visits and enhance overall satisfaction. Overall, the halal food provision strategy has proven effective in improving guest satisfaction; however, the hotel needs to innovate its menu, expedite halal certification, and strengthen digital-based promotion to maintain competitiveness. In addition, this study contributes to the development of halal tourism and serves as a practical reference for other Sharia-compliant hotels.

Abstract

This study aims to assess the quality and impact of supporting tourism facilities at Sisingamangaraja XII International Airport in strengthening the development of Lake Toba as a Super Priority Destination. The airport holds a strategic role as the main gateway for tourists visiting the Lake Toba area, making the quality of services and the completeness of facilities crucial aspects in creating a memorable travel experience. The research employed a qualitative approach with data collected through in-depth interviews with key informants, direct field observations, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted using the (SERVQUAL) model, which evaluates five key dimensions: tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. The findings reveal that the airport has provided several tourism-supporting facilities, including ground transportation services, food and beverage outlets, as well as souvenir and gift shops. However, the implementation of these facilities has not yet reached optimal performance. Identified challenges include the limited choice of transportation options to and from various tourist destinations, the lack of authentic Lake Toba culinary offerings at food and beverage outlets, and the insufficient promotion of local products at souvenir shops. Furthermore, the absence of essential services such as travel agencies and money changers has negatively affected convenience, particularly for international tourists who require accessible information, transactions, and travel services. These findings indicate that improving supporting facilities at Sisingamangaraja XII International Airport is an urgent necessitySuch efforts are expected to enhance the quality of airport services, increase tourist satisfaction, and ultimately reinforce Lake Toba’s position as a leading national and international tourism destination.

Abstract

Employee turnover in Jakarta’s star-rated hotels remains high in the post-pandemic period, ranging from 11–38% annually, which significantly affects service quality and industry competitiveness. This phenomenon is driven by a combination of job insecurity due to massive layoffs, job stress from excessive workload and long working hours, and a mismatch between young employees’ career expectations and traditional HR practices. Millennials and Gen-Z tend to prioritize self-development, meaningful work, and work–life balance, making them more mobile and open to new opportunities. This study aims to identify the dominant factors influencing turnover, explore the perceptions of HR managers and frontline staff regarding the policy–practice gap, and formulate relevant HR strategies for the post-pandemic context. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving in-depth semi-structured interviews, non-participant observation, and documentation review, analyzed using Miles, Huberman & Saldaña’s interactive model. Data validity was ensured through triangulation, member checking, and peer debriefing. Findings reveal a significant gap between HR policies and their implementation, weakening retention strategies. The study proposes integrated strategies including consistent employer branding, adaptive and transparent compensation, needs-based digital training, fair work flexibility, and competency-based career mapping. The main contribution lies in formulating a combinatorial HR model that provides a practical retention roadmap while enriching the hospitality HRM literature in Indonesia.

Abstract

The North Sumatra Provincial Museum, as one of Indonesia’s leading cultural tourism destinations, encounters challenges in facilitating effective communication for international visitors. Despite housing extensive collections of Batak, Malay, and Nias artifacts that attract thousands of tourists annually, the limited use of English often constrains intercultural interaction. This study aims to examine the role of English as a medium of communication in enhancing foreign visitors’ experiences, identify linguistic barriers, and propose improvement strategies. Employing a descriptive qualitative case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews and participant observation involving 50 international tourists (aged 18–65) from Europe, the Americas, and Asia who visited between January and March 2023. Data were analyzed thematically using NVivo software, supported by museum documents such as brochures and the website. Findings revealed that English proficiency among staff and the availability of English-language materials increased visitor satisfaction by 75%. However, communication barriers included the strong local accent (reported by 40% of respondents) and the lack of English-language audiovisual guides, which limited engagement. Recommendations include intensive English training focused on tourism vocabulary and phonetics, development of multilingual digital content, and collaboration with universities for volunteer interpreters. This research contributes theoretically to applied linguistics in tourism and practically to museum management enhancement.

Abstract

The Community Service (PKM) program for the 2025 academic year in Buntu Datu Tourism Village, Mengkendek District, Tana Toraja Regency, aims to enhance the human resources (HR) capacity in managing community-based tourism villages. This village has great tourism potential, supported by basic facilities such as gazebos, halls, camping areas, and food stalls that cater to tourists’ activities. However, tourism village management still faces challenges such as limited facilities, low digital promotion skills, lack of innovation in developing tourist attractions, and suboptimal use of village funds to support the tourism sector. The PKM implementation methods involve socialization, training, interviews, field observations, and Focus Group Discussions (FGD) with the community, village officials, and tourism awareness groups (Pokdarwis). Through a participatory approach, this activity successfully improved the community's understanding of destination management, tourist services, facility management, and digital promotion strategies via social media and online platforms. Although the impact was limited due to the relatively short duration of the assistance, the activity received high appreciation from the community and emphasized the importance of collaboration between the community, government, and academics. It is hoped that follow-up programs will strengthen local capacity, enhance tourism attractiveness, and support the sustainable economic welfare of the Buntu Datu Tourism Village community.

Abstract

The high consumption of coffee as part of people's lifestyle and the dominance of Americano and Cappuccino variants in sales at Roost Restaurant necessitate an analysis of consumer assessments of these two beverages. Therefore, this study aims to determine consumer assessments of the popular Americano and Cappuccino coffee beverages at Roost Restaurant at The Nest Hotel Nusa Dua. This study uses quantitative descriptive analysis techniques with data collection techniques through documentation and questionnaires distributed to 82 respondents. Consumer assessments are analyzed based on five indicators, namely taste, aroma, balance, presentation, and price. The results show that all indicators for both coffee beverages are in the high category, meaning that consumer assessments of Americano and Cappuccino are good in all aspects. The indicator with the highest rating for Americano and Cappuccino is presentation, while the indicator with the lowest rating for Americano and Cappuccino is taste. These findings indicate that although consumer ratings are generally good, improvements in taste, especially for Americano, are still needed to enhance consumers' positive perceptions of the products served.

Abstract

Local economic development in the village is a major factor in sustainable development. This study aims to understand how tourism villages and creative industries can work together to improve the local community's economy. The method used is a qualitative research method with a descriptive approach. With in-depth techniques, data collection includes observation, interviews, and documentation studies. The results of this study indicate that the synergy between Gronjong Wariti tourism and the Emping Melinjo creative industry has great potential to improve the economy of the Mejono Village community in order to increase income, open job opportunities, and improve people's lives. However, there are several obstacles faced, including a lack of attention and support from the local government, minimal supporting facilities, low quality of human resources (HR), the use of simple production technology, and suboptimal promotion. The Emping Melinjo creative industry faces several serious challenges, such as limited quality raw materials, dependence on middlemen, and low public awareness of the village's potential. Relatively high product prices also reduce purchasing power. To address this, we need to strengthen marketing networks and seek more stable alternative sources of raw materials. Furthermore, business management is suboptimal. Therefore, strategies are needed to optimize this synergy, such as improving human resource quality, product quality, and promotion, enhancing management capabilities, developing supporting infrastructure, fostering product innovation, and developing a monitoring and evaluation system.
