ANALISIS KEPUASAN PENGUNJUNG TERHADAP FASILITAS EKOWISATA HOLIDAY RESORT AEK RASO DI KABUPATEN LABUHAN BATU SELATAN

Ecotourism is a form of travel to natural areas that is carried out with the aim of conserving the environment and preserving the life and well-being of the local population. The Elephant Holiday Resort Training Center is one of the natural Ecotourism in Labuhan Batu Selatan, therefore this type of tourism must be developed specifically to support the preservation of the surrounding forest habitat. Because visitor visits are influenced by visitor satisfaction which will determine how long a visitor visits to the ecotourism area. Then satisfaction becomes the main priority in its management, service quality is also related to the provision of adequate facilities and management of facilities both in quality and quantity which will greatly affect visitor satisfaction and interest in the next visitor visit. Ecotourism facilities have a very positive and significant effect on visitor satisfaction and the development of facilities besides that facilities are also one of the important things for developing tourism. The results of the data were analyzed using multiple linear analysis. The results of this studied explain that attractiveness, the existence of good and adequate facilities, and visitor knowledge will affect visitor satisfaction by 73.3%. In other words, there is the influence of other variables of 26.7% which are not measured in this study.

Analisis Sentimen Wisatawan terhadap Kualitas Layanan Hotel dan Resort di Lombok Menggunakan SERVQUAL dan CRISP-DM

The era of digital transformation has sparked innovations in product and service marketing strategies in various sectors, one of which is the tourism sector. In the hospitality industry context, product marketing using website-based digital media allows consumers as hotel guests to review the products and services received. The Tripadvisor website is a digital marketing platform that provides review features for app users, especially consumers, to give ratings and reviews. This study aims to analyze the quality of hotel services using the Service Quality (SERVQUAL) framework based on the results of the classification of hotel guest sentiment data using the Naïve Bayes Classifier (NBC) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm by the stages of the Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM). The CRISP-DM framework consists of six stages, namely: business understanding stage, data understanding stage, data preparation stage, modeling stage, evaluation stage, and deployment stage. The SERVQUAL framework consists of several dimensions: reliability dimension; responsiveness; assurance; empathy; tangibles. The review data that will be processed is the consumer review data of The Oberoi Beach Resort Lombok; Sheraton Senggigi Beach Resort; Sudamala Resort Sengiggi; Holiday Resort Lombok; Aston Sunset Beach Resort. The results of this study show that the SVM algorithm performs better than NBC, where the accuracy value is 98.57%, the precision value is 100%, the recall value is 97.14%, and the f-measure value is 98.54%. The AUC value is 100%, and the t-Test value is 98.6%. Unlike the case with the results of SVM's algorithm performance evaluation without using the SMOTE Upgrading Operator, where the accuracy value is 95.71%, the precision value is 95.71%, the recall value is 100%, and the f-measure value is 97.81%. In addition, the AUC value is 91.1%, and the t-Test value is 95.7%.

Implementation of Green Housekeeping to Increase Efficiency of Operational Cost of Housekeeping Department at Holiday Resort Lombok

This observation-based research aims to investigate the impact of the implementation of green housekeeping at the Holiday Resort Lombok, particularly on the operational cost efficiency. The data were collected in three months through observation, interview, and documentation technique, involving as many as 4 (four) informants. The data were analyzed using descriptive quantitative analysis technique and the discussion was focused on the influence of Internal and External factors on the efficiency of operational cost. The research result shows that the implementation of green housekeeping has a positive impact in decreasing the operational cost and increasing the amount of savings yearly. In 2018, before the implementation of green housekeeping, the total savings of operational cost was Rp 2.045.750.506, while in 2019 there was a greater amount, indicating a significant result by 18.43% more frugal due to the green housekeeping implementation. Studying the global trend of green hotel, Holiday Resort wants to point out and emphasize the advantages offered by the green hotels. This also suggests that Holiday Resort can become a more competitive destination considering its potential and resources. However, it is recommended that Holiday Resorts Lombok allocate more funds for composting and vermi composting, biomethanation, and biosanitizing processes.

Analysis of land cover change due to deforestation at Holiday Resort Nature Park, North Sumatra Province, Indonesia

. Deforestation activities in Indonesia are increasingly becoming a real concern. All of these actions resulted in the loss of 50% of the world's tropical forests, impacting the livelihoods of forest-dependent people. Changes in land cover are common in natural resource use areas. Land change is an important issue for planners and policymakers. One of them is the encroachment of the Holiday Resort Nature Park (HRNP) area of North Sumatra Province, which is a form of forest governance and weak law enforcement. Especially in this area, there are Sumatran elephants (Elephas maximus sumatranus), which are classified as critically endangered species. Analysis of land cover change can be used as material for formulating policies. By utilizing the Geographic Information System (GIS), it will be easier to analyze land cover and land use changes. The purpose of this study was to analyze land cover changes due to deforestation at HRNP. Spatial analysis of cover change using imagery and testing the accuracy of deforestation data, land cover satellite imagery, and verification in the field. The results showed that during the past 30 years, there has been deforestation from secondary dryland forest of 2079.3 ha to forest, namely swamp shrubs covering an area of 30.5 ha (1.5%) and non-forest covering an area of 2048.8 ha (98.6%). The highest deforestation rate occurred from 1996 to 2000 as much as 2027.3 ha (97.5%). The form of land cover due to deforestation is plantations 1990.8 ha (95.7%) and land cover forms 57.8 ha (2.8%). The conclusion shows that deforestation was triggered by weak law enforcement from the beginning until now, thus providing a more realistic opportunity for communities to encroach

MODERNITY'S SIDE EFFECTS: BOREDOM AND PSYCHOPATHOLOGY IN J.G. BALLARD'S COCAINE NIGHTS

James Graham Ballard stands out as a speculative author, sometimes also classified as a science fiction author, who distorts the quotidian scenes from his own and the reader’s environment and uses them as raw material for his dystopic scenarios. The settings he chooses for his works are usually theme parks, luxury residences, highways, shopping malls and holiday resorts which are spaces that popped out and proliferated in number especially after the Second World War. Written in 1966, Cocaine Nights sustains the Ballardian tradition in which the spaces of the new middle class are dystopified. Converging with the detective fiction tradition, Cocaine Nights presents a distorted image of the holiday resorts to the reader. The novel deals with a holiday resort rife with lawlessness and psychopathological behaviour in the south of Spain. Charles Prentice, who arrives in the region after learning that his brother has been arrested for arson and murder, aims to solve the mystery, only to find that there is a logic of lawlessness governing the life in the holiday resort. The kind of community in question is quite “Ballardian” in that it consists of an affluent milieu of society who casts aside the issues of survival and has nothing to do. This paper aims to examine the effects of financial affluence and boredom on the lawlessness presented in Cocaine Nights.

Age classes of developing Red-necked Spurfowl Pternistis afer based on plumage, morphology and behaviour

This paper describes the plumage and morphology development of 11 age classes of Red-necked Spurfowl Pternistis afer to assist with field observations. Sixteen spurfowl were marked with coloured leg rings in the Cannon Rocks Holiday Resort, Eastern Cape, South Africa during March 2006 and observed daily until June 2008 to describe plumage and non-plumage morphological changes. The age classes include natal chicks, six discernible juvenile phases, post-juvenile phase, near-adult phase, non-territorial and territorial males. Red-necked Spurfowl only attain the adult plumage phase at about 240 d. However, if the development of the bare red throat and spurs are excluded, this near-adult plumage stage is attained at about 180 d. Territorial male Red-necked Spurfowl have long spurs similar to other Pternistis spp. The cryptic downy pattern of chicks assist the birds to blend in with their habitat. However, the plumage of juveniles is simply a transitional phase between the cryptic plumage of downy chicks and the less cryptic plumage of adult spurfowls.

Konsep Penyelesaian Perambahan Kawasan Taman Wisata Alam (TWA) Holiday Resort di Kabupaten Labuhan Batu Selatan Provonsi Sumatera Utara

The rising population has the potential to increase the need for land, on the other hand faced with the fact that the land is not increased. The most accessible target is forest area. This is what opens up opportunities for forest encroachment. The TWA Holiday Resort Forest area initially includes production forests. Part of the area has been converted into plantation area. To save some of it again, the Minister of Forestry issued Decree No. 695/Kpts-II/1990 which establishes its transition function to TWA (Holiday Resort). The condition of TWA Holiday Resort area is now very worrying. The purpose of this study is to examine, analyze the implementation of forest protection principles in the case of the TWA Holiday Ressort Expansion Area in Labuhan Batu Selatan Regency and to mnyusun Concept of Settlement of TWA Holiday Resort in Labuhan Batu Selatan Regency. The type of research used is empirical juridical consisting of primary data and secondary data. Primary data was conducted with field research at TWA Labuhan Batu Selatan. The result of the research shows that Implementation of forest protection in Labuhan Batu Selatan Regency has not run well because of the lack of firmness of local government apparatus and law enforcement officers in overcoming the encroachment of TWA forest area, so there are still many activities of encroachment done by society even there which established private elementary and junior high schools, village head offices and other buildings. The concept of completing the encroachment of TWA Holiday Resort in the future is to renew the law by improving Law No. 41 of 1999 on forestry, because in article 78 of the Forestry Law the criminal offense starts from letter d, article 78 a, b, and c not mentioned sanctions, In addition to legal reforms, which need to be improved such as law enforcers, the parties that form and apply the law must be good, facilities or facilities that support law enforcement must also be good, the community or the environment in which the law is applied must support, this is so that efforts in tackling the encroachment of TWA area can be more effective.

FACTORS INFLUENCING CUSTOMERS’ SATISFACTION AND THEIR ASSESSMENT

Tourism in many countries and in particular cities is one of the most attractive business forms that enhances the expansion of supply and increases competition. Consequently, the quality of services is the key to customer’s choice. However, a complex character of SPA hotel services makes it necessary to explore not only the service quality, but also its mutual connection with other business processes. The study is carried out within the framework of the RTA research grant “Assessment of hotel service development possibilities in Rezekne city”. To evaluate factors influencing customers’ satisfaction, the expert – client (“hidden guest”) questionnaire was developed. Its practical approbation was carried out conducting a survey in three SPA hotels: Pühajärve Spa & Holiday Resort 3* (Otepää, Valgamaa, Estonia), Hotel Jūrmala Spa 4* (Jurmala, Latvia), Spa Vilnius Anykščiai 4* (Anykščiai, Lithuania). In the result, the conclusion was made that the questionnaire makes it possible to successfully assess the SPA hotel’s business processes and its connection with the quality of services.

Study on the Landscape Pattern of Dalian Jinshitan National Holiday Resort in the Context of Tourism Urbanization

Resort-based urbanization is an important form of tourism urbanization. The paper analyzes the basic characteristics and diversity of landscape elements under the influence of the tourist development of Jinshitan National Holiday Resort (JNHR), discusses the changes in the spatial distribution of landscapes, and reveals how landscapes have changed under the influence of the tourism development of JNHR. The study shows that the whole landscape at Jinshitan has undergone a process from fragmentation to integration in the context of manmade tourism development and interference. As more tourism projects are developed, supporting infrastructures and facilities are continuously improved. Landscapes in Jinshitan have been vigorously developed in depth and extended from coastal area to inland area. As shown by the changing spatial distribution of relocated and commercial housing estates since 1992, there have been differences in the location, living environment and available landscapes between the housing estates, indicating the heterogeneity of social space and inequality in the living environment.

A Local Land Use Competition Cellular Automata Model and Its Application

Cellular automaton (CA) is an important method in land use and cover change studies, however, the majority of research focuses on the discovery of macroscopic factors affecting LUCC, which results in ignoring the local effects within the neighborhoods. This paper introduces a Local Land Use Competition Cellular Automata (LLUC-CA) model, based on local land use competition, land suitability evaluation, demand analysis of the different land use types, and multi-target land use competition allocation algorithm to simulate land use change at a micro level. The model is applied to simulate land use changes at Jinshitan National Tourist Holiday Resort from 1988 to 2012. The results show that the simulation accuracies were 64.46%, 77.21%, 85.30% and 99.14% for the agricultural land, construction land, forestland and water, respectively. In addition, comparing the simulation results of the LLUC-CA and CA-Markov model with the real land use data, their overall spatial accuracies were found to be 88.74% and 86.82%, respectively. In conclusion, the results from this study indicated that the model was an acceptable method for the simulation of large-scale land use changes, and the approach used here is applicable to analyzing the land use change driven forces and assist in decision-making.

The study of the spatial differentiation of the residential land-use in Dalian Jinshitan National Tourist Holiday Resorts

A reasonable degree of spatial structure of urban residential land will not only affect the quality of life of residents, but also affect the development efficiency of the entire city. Residential land nature of structural changes is the change in the social structure of residential land on the spatial distribution of specific performance. Under the background of the rapid urbanization, fevelopment of National Tourist Resort also presented the phenomenon of urbanization and promoted its interior spatial variation of the formation of residential land. This article aims to examine the Dalian Jinshitan National Tourist Holiday Resort spatial differentiation of residential land-depth analysis of the phenomenon, based on the three-phase SPOT5 and satellite sensing data of Dalian Jinshitan National Tourist Holiday Resort between 2003 to 2012. This paper, by using GIS technology combined with differentiation index D and multiple-group differentiation measure model D(m), analyzes residential space differentiation process, the distribution and the driving mechanism of Jishitan in villages scales, optimizes the allocation of resources, and promotes the healthy and steady development of domestic tourism resort. Results show that:(1) Between 2003 and 2012, there were differences among the varying degrees of various types of residential land-use in Jinshitan. Rural residential differentiation gradually increased, and the differentiation of the rest of other types declined. Differentiation of the garden house ranged from 0.06 to 0.65, which showed the most dramatic fluctuation. The spatial distribution intensity of Dalian Jinshitan National Tourist Holiday Resort differed within a reasonable range.(2) In the background of the traditional residential type gradually being replaced by the new ones, the area of the garden houses, commercial residential and common residential had been growing rapidly and the distribution had been ranging, which was mainly distributed along the coastline or scenic areas, and it was becoming more widely. The number of the rural houses was increasingly decreasing, while the covering area was more and more scattered even disappeared. In general, residential land area increased significantly.(3) In the three stages of the development of housing industry, the driving mechanism of residential land differentiation in Dalian Jinshitan National Tourist Holiday Resort is multifaceted. The government decisionmaking is the control power. The social class differentiation is an important force. The market mechanism is the dominant force. The personal choice is the auxiliary power. These factors interact with each other, and work together on the development of tourism real estate in Jinshitan National Tourist Resort. Jinshitan National Tourist Resort is regarded as the representatives of the first state-level tourist resorts, therefore it has a profound reference for studies on its evolution and formation mechanism for the development of other similar tourist resorts.

Effects of a Holiday Resort on the Distribution of Semidomesticated Reindeer

We studied the impacts of a large skiing and hiking resort on the distribution of semidomesticated reindeer in Saariselkä, eastern Finnish Lapland, in 1986 and 2000. The effect of intensity of outdoor activities on reindeer density in terms of pellet-group density was dependent variably on habitat, the year of inventory and season. Despite the overall doubling of visitor numbers between the inventory years, pellet-group density in winter increased in the study area by 20%. The sex ratio of reindeer in summer 1986 was male-biased up to a distance of 8–12 km, indicating that females with calves avoided the vicinity of the resort, but in 2000 the bias existed only at a distance of 0–4 km. However, pellet-group density in summer at the distance of 0–4 km was 53% and 28% lower than that at 4–8 km and 8–12 km, respectively. In winter, a similar pattern was observed in lichen-rich coniferous habitats. Cladonia stellaris, which has low tolerance to heavy grazing, reached its maximum abundance at the distance of 0–4 km. Observations on the increased tolerance of reindeer were very probably associated with improved channeling of tourists into fewer and better marked hiking and skiing routes, changes in the reindeer herd-management and frequent contacts with humans, but the adverse effects of outdoor activities could not be avoided.

Gastroenteritis Outbreak at Holiday Resort, Central Italy

During the summer of 2003, a gastroenteritis outbreak spread throughout a holiday resort in central Italy. Fecally contaminated groundwater and seawater were leaking into the non-drinking-water system, which was found to be connected to the drinking-water system of a large resort. This contamination had a primary role in the onset of the outbreak and spread of the infection.

Waterborne outbreak among Spanish tourists in a holiday resort in the Dominican Republic, August 2002.

On 3 September 2002, the Spanish national centre of epidemiology (Centro Nacional de Epidemiologia--CNE) was alerted to a high number of gastroenteritis cases in Spanish tourists who had travelled to a hotel in Punta Cana on different days during august 2002. Entamoeba hystolitica cysts have been visualised by microscopy in the stools of several patients that sought medical attention in the Dominican Republic. The CNE informed the health authorities in the Dominican Republic and conducted in conjunction an epidemiological investigation. A descriptive study of the 76 initial cases estimated a mean illness duration of 5.1+2.9 days and a exposure period of 3.6+2.2 days. Following a retrospective cohort study, the attack rate was found to be 32.4%. Consequently, 216 (95% CI=114.75-317.25) spanish tourists had probably developed the illness. Stool samples were collected in Spain from untreated patients who still felt unwell. None of the samples were positive for E.hystolitica. On 10 September, a hygiene inspection was undertaken at the hotel. Samples of the ice and meals served at the buffet that day, yielded coliform bacteria. Consumption of water from the resort water system was the only risk factor associated with the symptoms (RR= 3.55; 95% CI =1.13-10.99). To avoid similar outbreaks occurring again at the hotel, it is essential to regularly monitor the water quality and to improve food handling hygiene standards. Basic food hygiene training for food handlers should be mandatory. An international guideline for the management foodborne and waterborne outbreaks among tourists in holiday resorts should be drawn up, involving all competent authorities of both destination and tourist origin countries.

Structure And Change In A Local Holiday Resort: Peaceful Bay, On The Southern Coast Of Western Australia

Most of the literature dealing with holiday resorts focuses on high impact, mass market destinations like the south-east coast of Queensland, Bali and other major tourist attractions. Relatively little attention is given to the low profile holiday resort patronised by local holiday-makers taking a relaxed vacation with family and friends. Such resorts may not appear important to tourism researchers as they have a lower impact on their host communities, they do not provide much in the way of facilities or packaged entertainment for the traveller, and they are not featured in the glossy travel literature. Nevertheless, low profile holiday resorts have an important function, satisfying a legitimate market niche. Moreover, perhaps unfortunately for their traditional patrons, these resorts eventually tend to be ‘discovered’ by a wider clientele and their intrinsic character changes.

ZOOPLANKTON AND SOME ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS IN THE BOT RIVER ESTUARY

SUMMARY A zooplankton study was commenced during July 1980 while the Bot River estuary was closed off from the sea, and had a mean surface salinity of 13,5%. The latter declined to 2,3‰ in September 1981 before the estuary was opened to the sea at the Sonesta Holiday Resort, after which it increased again to means of, respectively, 28,9 and 30,8‰ during November and December 1981, the last two months of the survey. Zooplankton numbers and biomass fluctuated seasonally with maximum mean values occurring during the spring of 1980. It would appear that the estuarine zooplankton population in the Bot River estuary was adversely affected in terms of both numbers and biomass by the decrease in salinity prior to the opening of the estuary at Sonesta. Zooplankton composition, however, changed relatively little. The nauplii, copepodites and adults of the calanoid copepod Pseudodiaptomus hessei dominated numerically, together forming an average of approximately 90% of the zooplankton during the study. Only two marine zooplankton organisms, Oithona similis and Paracalanus crassirostris, were collected in the estuary, appearing after it was opened at Sonesta. The prevailing salinities in the estuary prior to its opening at Sonesta appear to have inhibited the breeding of an important estuarine bait organism, the sandprawn Callianassa kraussi.

Some aspects of sanitary administration in a holiday resort.

The problems of sanitary administration associated with the incursions of large numbers of visitors into holiday resorts is briefly discussed. Common deficiencies in catering establishments are reviewed and the need for compulsory registration of premises is stressed. The difficulties facing the health educator in holiday catering trades are discussed and brief suggestions made for overcoming them. The manufacture and distribution of ice-cream is briefly dealt with and the value of sampling is discussed ; sample results are quoted. Attention is drawn to the need for sterilization of ice-cream servers and the result of a simple test on the use of a quaternary ammonium disinfectant is given. A local code of standard for ice-cream vehicles is quoted. The provision of sanitary accommodation in places of public entertainment is briefly referred to and a local interpretation of section 89 of the Public Health Act is included. The sterilization of beer glasses is discussed and details are given of tests on an automatic washer. Defects in powers of control of boarding houses are enumerated and some remedial suggestions are made, including the introduction of compulsory registration. The author concludes by stressing the need for additional staff in holiday resorts in order that the increased difficulties of sanitary administration can be overcome.
