Summary
Most residents of Ibiza hold positive views on various tourist offerings, with 52.4% expressing strong approval, though opinions diverge sharply on all-inclusive resorts, golf courses, and clubbing tourism. The study, conducted through surveys in 2011 amid economic crisis effects, categorizes tourist products into highly acceptable (e.g., nature, cultural, and nautical tourism), moderately acceptable (e.g., holiday homes), and problematic (e.g., all-inclusive resorts). It reveals a significant split between supporters (17%) and opponents (35.4%) of all-inclusive tourism, alongside a moderate opposition group (28%) that rejects golf and clubbing tourism while supporting other offerings. The research highlights how resident attitudes vary by tourist product type, providing insights into the social impacts of specialized tourism on local perceptions.
