Abstract

Tourism villages in the disruptive era inevitably have to adapt to technological advancements and the needs of millennials. The speed and clarity of information is a demand for the development of tourism villages today in addition to the innovation and uniqueness of tourist attractions. Efforts to build a model that is in line with these demands have begun to involve relevant stakeholders, i.e., village tourism managers, local governments, and tourists. Nevertheless, more in-depth studies are needed regarding the local wisdom of rural communities who are key actors in the development of tourism villages. This paper aims to explain the initial research in formulating a development model of smart tourism village based on information and communication technology. The case taken is tourism villages in Sleman district. A sampling of study cases in the form of tourism villages following the categories that have been determined by the Sleman Regency tourism office Initial search results show that there is no integration between village potential, systematic management, and meeting the needs of balanced tourists. This finding is the first step to formulate an ICT-based intelligent tourism village development model that is effective and efficient while still based on local wisdom in the effort to preserve nature and culture as a determining factor for the sustainability of tourism villages.

Summary

Introduction

The development of tourism village in Indonesia started since PNPM Program Nasional Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Mandiri Bidang Pariwisata (National Program in the Empowerment of Community Participation for Tourism Development) established in 2008 [1] rural development concept based on traditional tourism has begun before. Improving tourism concept in the rural area started from the idea of rural development by Sri Sultan HB IX in the era of 2000, by establishing Brayut tourism village and Tembi tourism village [2]. This rural tourism development concept was in the form of life in activity, learning together with the indigenous society while enjoying the natural circumstance coloured by agricultural, and cattle as the main occupation [3,4]. The rapid development of tourism village as one of the major tourism industry sectors in Indonesia need clear and integrated guidance, especially in the disruptive era which should be more speedy and informative for tourists.
