This first issue of 2022 is composed of four articles. The first article offers a structured literature review on the tourism area life cycle and offers insights on how this theory can contribute to tourism planning and strategy analysis. The remaining three articles, one theoretical and two empirical, are mainly related to Tourism and its stakeholders’ well-being. The second article is dedicated to positive psychology and mindfulness, and their relevance to developing meaningful tourism experiences and benefiting individuals' well-being while visiting a destination. The third article presents the residents’ perspective and how their perceptions of tourism impacts are affecting their quality of life regarding several dimensions: material, community life, health and safety feelings domain and emotional life. The fourth paper leads the reader to those working in the tourism sector, focusing on front-line hotel employees and how their internal motivations affect the relationship between perceived supervisory support and constructive deviance behaviours.
