Abstract: Residential tourism can generate positive impacts in rural areas, through the definition of integrated strategies for sustainable development and geared towards the promotion and revitalization of the territory. Particularly in rural areas, which are more fragile and sensitive to the impacts generated by tourism activities, special attention should be paid to the promotion of sustainable tourism development. It needs to be well planned and integrative of the local people?s needs and of the interests of economic actors and other stakeholders of the destination, as well as integrative of tourist resources, which constitute important assets that should be preserved. Currently, second homes are considered as opportunities for regional development and may boost the local economy, contributing to the upgrading of rural areas. On the other hand, they might cause challenges to regional planning, through the increasing multifunctionality of rural areas, making their management process more complex and difficult. This paper discusses the concept of residential tourism in rural areas and the potential contribution of integrated destination marketing for enhancing sustainable planning and management of a destination, through a careful development of second homes in rural areas.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the complementary preferences of tourists and residents in the Algarve region in the sense of revealing their willingness to diversify their recreational experience, not only in coastal spaces, but also of interiority.
Abstract: The Algarve region, south of Portugal, is a case study of Mediterranean tourism, and its recreational offer is essentially based on the promotion of sun and beach product and on the qualification of its coastal assets, establishing a framework of weak tourism differentiation which, conjugated with the climate change impacts, poses a threat to the resilience of a region with a socio-economy too much based on coastal tourism. Therefore, a heterogenization of tourism products is a win-win opportunity for strengthening regional resilience to present and future challenges. Hence, the need is to study, comparatively, the complementary preferences of tourists and residents in this region in the sense of revealing their willingness to diversify their recreational experience, not only in coastal spaces, but also of interiority. On the one hand, tourists show that they want to increase their recreational experience culturally, while on the other hand, the sea level rise may affect the most considered tourism resource, namely the beach, being that regional tourism sector depends on it. This chapter presents an investigation of the degree of preference of Algarve region's tourists and residents for alternative activities, such as nature-based and culture-based, which promotion could attenuate the regional dependence on sun and beach tourism and, by that, increment regional resilience.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out a market research about the viability of implanting the "home for exchange" accommodation system, which consists in an alternative accommodation for domestic trips, which can be a low price alternative to foment the tourism of experience and also to second residences during the low season.
Abstract: RESUMO: Este trabalho visa realizar uma pesquisa de mercado sobre a viabilidade de se implantar a modalidade de hospedagem “home for exchange”, que consiste em uma troca de domicílios como uma alternativa extra hoteleira para viagens domésticas. Esse tipo de acomodação acontece em outros países, mas internamente para destinos brasileiros é uma pratica incipiente e ainda não possui uma sistematização por meio de web sites como ocorre em outros países. Dessa forma essa pesquisa poderá auxiliar na elaboração de um sistema de organização dessa pratica que poderá ser uma alternativa de baixo custo para fomentar o turismo de experiência e também para casas de segunda residência em épocas fora de temporada, onde os imóveis ficam sem utilização. Para isso será aplicado um questionário para pessoas que possuem ABSTRACT: This paper aims to carry out a market research about the viability of implanting the “home for exchange” accommodation system, which consists in an alternative accommodation for domestic trips. This kind of lodging is common in other countries, but for Brazilian’s destinations is unusual and still does not have a web systematization as in other places. Therefore, this research may help to elaborate an organization system of this practice, that can be a low price alternative to foment the tourism of experience and also to second residences during the low season, where the beach or country houses remain empty. For that, will be applied a questionnaire to people with second homes which, after reading the proposal to “switch homes”, will be requested whether or not they have interest in joining v.1 n.3 2016 53-73
