Glamping brings a glamorous tourism experience providing potential opportunities to escape from daily routines and maintain relationships during difficult/special times, such as the pandemic with ...travel restrictions or postpandemic travel concerns. It is innovative to explore the unique group of DINK (dual income, no kids) couples using glamping as context. This study examines the variations in closeness among DINK couples based on four individual attachment styles (i.e., secure, anxious, dismissive, fearful), and explores the relationships between closeness and subjective well-being. A pilot test with 118 valid responses was adopted to ensure the validity of items and feasibility of the study design. Utilizing attachment theory with four attachment styles, the main study analyzed 940 valid responses using confirmatory factory analysis, ANOVA, and multigroup path analysis. This study highlights that people with a secure attachment style have a significantly 1) higher level of closeness with their partner and 2) stronger relationship between closeness and subjective well-being compared to the other three attachment styles (i.e., anxious, dismissive, and fearful). The results suggest that glamping providers could improve glamping environments to be peaceful and comfortable to attract potential glampers who have higher anxiety (i.e., anxious and fearful attachment styles). Further, the results indicate that glamping could serve as a setting for couples’ therapy and to celebrate special events to enhance close relationships. These promoting/marketing strategies can benefit small glamping businesses develop their products and potentially draw different types of visitors.

Kitle turizminin hegemonyasının kırıldığı bu yeni yüzyılda hızlı yaşanan bir takım gelişmeler tüketici davranışlarında da radikal değişimler yaşanmasına neden olmuştur. Turistler ve doğaseverler, ...doğayı merkeze alan turistik aktiviteleri tercih etmekte ve bu doğrultuda alternatif turizm çeşitlerine yönelik talep artışları yaşanmaktadır. Alternatif turizm türleri arasında trend olmaya başlamış olan glamping turizmi, destinasyonların turizm potansiyelini arttıran bir etki yaratmaktadır. Glamping, etimolojik olarak glamorous (gösterişli) ve kamp (kamp) sözcüklerinin birleşiminden oluşan lüks kampçılık olarak bilinmektedir. Kampçılıkla birlikte konforu ve lüksü ihmal etmeden doğayla iç içe olmayı sağlayan, konaklanacak ortamda ev rahatlığı sunan bir konsepte sahiptir. Avrupa’da yaygın olarak tercih edilen bir turizm aktivitesiyken Türkiye’de yeni bir anlayış olarak yer edinmektedir. Van Gölünü havzasında bulunan ilçelerin bir destinasyon olarak bu turizm türüne elverişli olup olmadığı sorusundan yola çıkılarak araştırmaya başlanmıştır. Karar verici konumundaki belediye başkanları ile görüşülerek Van Gölü havzasının glamping turizmi potansiyeli belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Görüşmeler yarı yapılandırılmış mülakat tekniği kullanılarak yüz yüze gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, Van Gölü havzasının glamping turizmine genel olarak uygun olduğu ve yerel yönetimlerin bu tarz girişimleri desteklemeye istekli olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

O ato de viajar tornou-se bastante acessível paratodos os grupos sociais, o que refinou os motivos que levam cada vez mais pessoas a viajar e,nesta senda,o grande desafio é conseguir criar atividades ...turísticas que sejam compatíveis com os princípios e objetivos do desenvolvimento sustentável no que toca à sustentabilidade ambiental, ao desenvolvimento local e à qualidade de vida.O glampingsurge como uma nova tipologia de campismo com glamour, com ofertadeconforto físico e estético, sendo este mais luxuoso face ao campismo tradicional. Esta tipologia está associada ao Turismo de Natureza, ao Ecoturismo, ou seja, a um Turismo mais sustentável. A procura está focada na autenticidade, no serviço personalizadoena interação direta com a natureza. A preocupação pela preservação da natureza e por formas de turismo ambientalmentemaisresponsáveis é outra das características que os clientes procuram no glamping.O grande objetivo desta investigação foi analisar aconceptualizaçãode glamping, a sua legislação, o crescimento do mesmo em Portugal, com foco na região Centro, e identificar falhas existentes e repensar como ultrapassá-las, contribuindo assim para uma maior compreensão deste tipo deexperiência turística
The relevance of searching for new varieties of tourist offers is due to a number of reasons. First, high competition in the market, which encourages entrepreneurs to invent new forms of ensuring the ...need for rest for their customers; secondly, the growth of consumer whimsy towards the orientation, content and variants of activities that are available during the rest. Both of these reasons, against the background of the growing ecological thinking in society, caused the emergence and rapid development of glamping. The article is aimed at researching the glamping as a new concept of tourist travel and hotel business, analyzing its development in the world and in Ukraine. As a result of the analysis, the article formulated a triune structure of the glamping recreation conception, which consists of the following elements: maximum comfort, natural surroundings (placement of glamps), and minimal impact on the natural environment. Thanks to this, it is possible to classify glamping as one of the varieties of ecological tourism. The main variants of glam designs are provided, in particular: safari tent, tipi, yurt, pop-tent/sphere/capsule/bubble, caravan, houses on wheels, house on a rock. Four categories of consumers of glamping products are also distinguished; the dependence between the target audience, the location of glamping and the formation of its specialization is specified. A brief analysis of the world experience in glamping tourism development and experience along with the geography of glamping in Ukraine are presented. As a result, the following conclusions have been drawn: active glamping exists in different landscape zones of the country; for the most part, glamps have a high level of comfort (they provide all the amenities); the cost of accommodation per night starts from 2500 UAH for double occupancy and reaches 4500 UAH; there are three companies – glamps producers in our country. The article also presents an economic substantiation and a generalization of advantages of glamping as a hotel business, which definitely testify to perspectivity of its development and further possibilities for scientific research.
•Original ecology includes authenticity, scenery and natural lifestyle.•Customers’ emotional value includes enjoyment, tension release and social bonding.•Different dimensions of original ecology can ...affect customers’ emotional value.•Room and public space of the accommodation can affect customers’ emotional value.•Customers’ emotional value in glamping can affect their WOM.
Glamping has grown increasingly popular as a new type of outdoor hotel that combines nature with luxury. Glamping operations managers must fully understand how certain attributes of their business affect their customers’ word-of-mouth (WOM) in order to sustain growth and attract new customers. There has been little previous research on the influence of nature-related attributes on customers’ emotions and WOM. To address this gap, we conducted interviews in two glampsites based on the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) framework. We also analyzed online reviews for 20 glampsites. We conducted qualitative analysis on the data using grounded theory techniques. We found that original ecology (including authenticity, scenery, and natural lifestyle) and accommodation environment (including room and public space) can affect customers’ emotional value (including tension release, enjoyment, and social bonding), which can in turn affect their WOM. The results presented here may provide useful implications for both researchers and glamping business managers.

Glamping is an increasingly popular and accessible modern form of camping. To address current and future impacts of COVID-19 on glamping, 2926 active leisure travelers in the US and Canada were ...surveyed. Respondents were asked about post-COVID-19 glamping trip plans and hotel/resort trip plans for comparison. Independent variables of interest include 2019 accommodation experiences, 2020 accommodation plans prior to COVID-19, and socio-demographics. Results indicate more active leisure travelers have plans to take glamping trips (45.9%) after COVID-19 when permissible than hotel/resort trips (24.7%). The results highlight that the broad accessibility of glamping make it a viable leisure travel alternative during and after the pandemic.
