Abstract

This qualitative analysis delves into key aspects of tourism destination management, focusing on resilience, image, marketing, and crisis management. Leveraging the extensive resources of the Web of Science collection, the study highlights the intricate interplay among these key elements. The research underscores that the effectiveness of destination management relies on fostering a dynamic and positive destination image, recognizing the potentially significant impact of crises on reputation and tourist numbers. Particularly, marketing management emerges as a central factor in attracting tourists, emphasizing the need for a nuanced balance among these domains to ensure compelling and unforgettable experiences. Looking ahead, the trajectory of tourism destination management research will emphasize priorities such as technological innovation, sustainable development, social impact, and global cooperation. The primary goal is to drive the tourism industry towards strong and sustainable growth, navigating the challenges and opportunities of the dynamic global landscape.
