دراسة خصائص و توجيهات السياح المقيمين في النزل البيئية في الاردن

Abstract EN

This study aims to investigate the current situation of eco-lodges in Jordan and identify the economic, and socio-cultural characteristics of tourists who plan to stay in these eco-lodges.

This is added to determining the characteristics of their tourist movement and identifying their impressions about these hotels, in addition to comparing all these elements with international literature in this area.

The study used the quantitative approach by distributing (168) questionnaires to all eco-lodges in Jordan, namely Dana Al-Mujib, Azraq and Ajloun eco-lodges.

The study found that the majority of its results match with the international literature in the same field.

However, the difference is that all eco-lodges in Jordan are owned and managed by the (RSCN), although global literature indicates that they are owned and managed by local communities.

Also, the length of stay did not exceed one night at (40.5%) of the sample, but similar to previous results at the local level.

The study found that the capacity of eco-lodges in Jordan is limited.

It also recommended the need to establish new eco- lodges vertically or horizontally in reserves where there are no eco-lodges.
