Tourism marketers are faced with a complex environment resulting from unprecedented growth in the tourism industry over the last 50 years. As the phenomenon of tourism has grown, so have the interests of destinations in attracting their share of visitors (Sheehan, Ritchie, & Hudson, 2007). Destination choices available to consumers have proliferated (Pike, 2005). Today's tourism marketers must influence consumer decision making in an increasingly complex and competitive global marketplace. Tourism is a complicated setting involving a diverse group of active stakeholders (Sheehan et al., 2007) who each have different interests in the tourism market (Pike, 2005). For destination stakeholders such as destination marketing organisations (DMOs), ACCOMMODATION providers, and activity operators to survive in an increasingly competitive environment, it is essential that a consistent approach is used by all tourism stakeholders operating within a single destination (Sheehan et al., 2007).

The importance of segmentation in tourism is widely acknowledged (e.g. Bieger & Laesser, 2002; Cha, McCleary, & Uysal, 1995; Kastenholz, Davis, & Paul, 1999). To date research has assisted us to understand which bases can be used by tourism destinations to effectively segment tourism markets (e.g. Dolnicar and Leisch, 2003, Johns and Gyimothy, 2002 and Laesser and Crouch, 2006). Further, these efforts have largely centred upon building tourist profiles for a destination using visitor data (e.g. Frochot, 2005, Hudson and Ritchie, 2002 and Laws et al., 2002). Little research attention has been directed towards understanding how the tourism stakeholders segment their markets. As a result we do not know how tourism stakeholders segment a market for managerial and marketing purposes and whether tourism stakeholder segments mirror the segments defined by DMOs. This case study will contribute to the literature by presenting tourism stakeholder views for one tourism destination. It will identify similarities or discrepancies between the segments defined by the DMO and the segments used by tourism stakeholders for managerial and marketing purposes.
