The proposed conceptual framework brings together two approaches, namely the theories of industry organization (10) and the resource-based view (RBV). The proposition underlying this framework is that destination competitiveness is achieved by the adoption of policies and strategies aligned with market opportunities, drawing upon the unique or distinctive tourism features offered by the destination. It is proposed that three major influences are evident in the case of hot springs tourism, namely Tourism Destination Resources and Attractors, Tourism Destination Strategies and Tourism Destination Environments. An evaluation is provided of the administration of a three-round Delphi survey, which was intended to validate the determinants of destination competitiveness that were derived from the literature. Drawing upon the results of the pilot study it is concluded that the development of a sector-specific model of destination competitiveness is capable of capturing the nature and characteristics of the hot springs tourism sector. 2006 published Routledge DOI:10.1080/14790530601132328 http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/content~db=all~content=a770408410 public Tourism and Hospitality Planning and Development 3 3 179-197 TRUE 1479-053X http://vu.academia.edu/BrianKing/Papers/141252/Assessing_Destination_Competitiveness._An_Application_to_the_Hot_Springs_Tourism_Sector Includes bibliographical references: pp. 195-197.
