ABSTRACT Recent research in tourism highlights the importance of building strong attachment with tourists. Nevertheless, research has yet to examine the role of tourists’ attachment styles in relations with building strong attachment.

Thus, this article explores the relationships between attachment style, destination attachment and destination satisfaction. Results suggest that tourists’ attachment styles matter.
