Abstract
Bima Regency, with its natural and cultural diversity, has great potential as a strategic tourism destination that requires proper management. However, the main challenge faced is determining the most potential destinations appropriately and supported by accurate data. In an effort to address the problem, this research utilizes the Entropy method for criteria weighting and applies two multi-criteria decisionmaking methods, Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) and MultiAttributive Border Approximation area Comparison (MABAC), to evaluate their effectiveness in selecting tourist destinations in Bima Regency. The results show that both methods consistently identify Lariti Beach as a superior destination. From the comparison of the two methods, the SAW method provides more stable and consistent results, is suitable for less complex conditions, and requires long-term reliability. Meanwhile, the MABAC method shows higher sensitivity to data changes, with more significant fluctuations in results. Thus, the SAW method is considered more appropriate for use in the selection of strategic tourist destinations in Bima Regency, considering that this method provides consistent results as well as efficiency and ease of application. © 2024 IEEE.
