The objective of this paper is to study the relationship between memorable tourism
experiences and destination sustainability. Three hypotheses that relate dimensions of sustainability
(economic, socio-cultural, and environmental) to memorable tourism experience are considered,
based on a review of the literature. A questionnaire designed for that purpose was administered to
1034 tourists who stayed at five rural and sun and beach destinations in Spain. A multigroup analysis
with a structural equation model was conducted to establish the differences between both destination
types. The results show that destination environmental sustainability influences the memorable
tourism experience, though significant differences between rural and sun and beach destinations
have been detected. Age plays a moderating role: the younger the tourist the greater the influence of
sustainability on memorable tourism experiences. [-]
