Abstract

Sustainable tourism development is an emerging concept to overcome the negative impacts of tourism development. This study analyzes sustainable tourism development to achieve economic, socio-cultural, and environmental sustainability goals in Ngargoyoso District. The research method used in this study is a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques through FGD, direct interviews, documentation, and field observation. Tourism villages in Ngargoyoso District, especially in Jatirejo Village, Kemuning Village, and Berjo Village, are supported by the government, private parties, and the community, who synergize to achieve community welfare. Based on the study's results, it was found that the positive impacts of the existence of tourism villages include increasing economic levels, increasing knowledge by the public, and reducing unemployment. In contrast, the negative impacts are the increasing accumulation of garbage, infrastructure damage, and congestion.
