Sažetak
This study aims to analyse the relationship between tourist
growth in urban destinations and certain transformations apparent
in main recipient cities. Particular attention is paid to the
impact of tourism on housing in popular tourist destinations, and
on the people who live there. We focus on the case of San
Sebastian, in Spain, which is a major tourist destination and,
together with Dubrovnik, Venice, Barcelona and Amsterdam, is
one of the European cities which has seen a growing concern
over mass tourism. Firstly, this study seeks to analyse different
research approaches conducted over recent years on the complex
relationship between tourism and the rental-housing sector.
Secondly, the study examines whether the increase in the intensity
of use of the Airbnb platform is related to the price asked
when renting a property long-term. The analysis conducted shows
that a one standard deviation increase in Airbnb intensity is associated
with an increase of 7.3% in rental prices. Our suggestions
for urban planners and managers in charge of urban tourist destinations
are for greater regulation of tourist accommodation in
line with long-term house rentals.
