ABSTRACT
Despite the strength of revenue creation of long-stay tourists, determinants of their revisit intention have not been studied sufficiently. To this end, this study examined the determinants of long-stay tourists’ satisfaction and revisit intention who visited Jeju Island, South Korea. The results revealed that long-stay tourists’ destination attachment influences their satisfaction and revisit intention. Novelty seeking, escape from a mundane environment and relaxation positively impact on satisfaction. The results imply that destination managers need to offer more chances to involve destinations to construct destination attachment and opportunities to escape, relax, and seek novelty if they aim to promote long-stay tourists’ revisit intention.
