Staycation: deception or a real tourist experience?

Abstract

Due to the economic crises and the COVID-19 pandemic, individuals have recently turned to staycation activities, which are defined as "holidays at home". In this context, the study aims to determine to what extent the experience obtained as a result of staycation activities can meet the need for relaxation and satisfaction obtained through traditional tourism activities. In the study where the qualitative research method was adopted, data was collected using a semi-structured interview technique. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the staycation activity is a type of tourism consisting of the themes of participation, motivation, experience, emotion, efficiency, meaningfulness, and discovery. While the theme of meaningfulness came to the fore the most in the Staycation experience, the theme that was least emphasized was efficiency. According to the research results, participants see the staycation experience as a personal deception. In this context, it is recommended to increase virtual reality applications to increase the satisfaction obtained with the staycation experience. Additionally, it is recommended to diversify cultural, artistic, and sports activities in the region.
