In this study, I analyzed the selection characteristics of selecting of domestic honeymooners who had been to marine resorts. It was found that honeymooners considered a room with a nice view and location factors most in selecting a resort and in satisfaction after using. The rest factors were cleanness in a resort, safety in a resort, kindness, and interior facilities. As a result of that, I understood that honeymooners preferred to the room level of a marine resort, a nice view of the tropical beach and the ocean and were satisfied with them after using .
On the other hand, it was analyzed that natural factors including the tropical beach and temperature were excluded from selection factors , but satisfaction at them was high after using a resort. As the reasons of that, the following were deduced. Honeymooners tended not to give lots of consideration to their selection because of ideas that natural factors were not involved in the cost paid by tourists and it was natural that a resort included natural factors, whereas they were satisfy with them after understanding through the experience and use of natural characteristics.
In case of the honeymooners' characteristics with high importance of selection and satisfaction, the following was analyzed. The more a honeymooner's experience of foreign traveling was , a honeymooner's experience of marine sports was , the package cost of a marine resort was , and a honeymooner used a private room (pool villa), the higher the importance of selection and satisfaction were. However, in case of the group of honeymooners ,who had been to abroad over eleven times, the importance of selection and satisfaction appeared low. In case of the factor of the package cost, the group involved in W 2,500,000-3,000,000 showed the high importance of selection and satisfaction . It can be estimated that the group of honeymooners, which selected the package of which cost was w 2,500,000-3,000,000 (per person), acted most positively at the time of selecting a marine resort and experiencing it . On the other hand, the group involved in over W3,500,000 showed the low the importance of selection and satisfaction.
As the factor that the importance of selection characteristics influence satisfaction at characteristics, it was analyzed to be the tropical beach , natural views, marine leisure, resort rooms, and human services in the order named. The importance of natural characteristics was confirmed by the analysis of the more honeymooners considered about natural factors including the tropical beach , the higher satisfaction increased . This fact proves that the natural characteristics of the sea is an important factor of developing a marine resort as well as of selection and satisfaction of a marine resort
In verifying the difference between the importance of selection and satisfaction, the satisfaction value was lower than the selection factor value in spite of most of satisfaction. Especially, there was a great of differences in the suitability of the cost. The fact seems to come from a result of that the cost of the honeymoon traveling was too high to satisfy honeymooners . It should be suggested to need marketing plans and change to increase satisfaction rather than to keep the balance between the importance of selection factors and the anticipation of selection .
This study targeted honeymooners in various classes of domestic tourists , and limited detailed areas to marine resorts located in Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, and the South Pacific. The fact causes the restriction that the result of the research can't apply to all general tourists. However, it can be supposed that the detailed attempt including tourists by classes and the limit of marine resorts by areas can bring about the reliability and validity of this research. Especially, it can be regarded as the specialty of this research that it is possible to compare and analyze through executing the verification by two ways of comparing and analyzing the importance of selection and the order of satisfaction at characteristics through technological and statistical analysis and comparing the expectation with the result according to honeymooners' the characteristics(population statistical specialties and the situational specialties of use ).
