Strategi Pemerintah Desa dalam Pengembangan Desa Wisata Muntei Siberut Selatan Kepulauan Mentawai sebagai Daya Tarik Wisatawan

The creation of the Muntei Tourism Village in the Mentawai Islands' South Siberut District is a calculated move that intends to draw tourists while also significantly enhancing the local economy and conserving the native way of life. This community needs the proper management plan because of its natural and cultural riches, which might be turned into a tourist destination. In this regard, village government institutions play a critical role in fostering community involvement, fostering local creativity, and incorporating potential into initiatives for the development of sustainable tourism. Observation, in-depth interviews, and recording were the methods used to collect data for this descriptive qualitative study, which involved informants from a variety of related fields. The study's conclusions highlight how crucial the village government's strategic role is in creating and carrying out policies for the development of tourist villages, especially Muntei Tourism Village. The tactics used not only take economic factors into consideration, but also preserve environmental equilibrium and enhance the community's cultural identity. It is envisaged that this research will contribute to a better understanding of sustainable and successful tourism village development techniques.
