As an extended form of localpeople involvement in tourism, the homestay concept aims to promote households to earn an income from tourismdirectly. Although homestays are purported to provide economic benefits to the local people, it is not clear whetherthe local people fully benefit from the venture. For instance, the majority of the people in Taita Taveta County stilllive below the poverty line despite the fact that the homestay concept has already been in existence in the countysince 1989 and the highest number of homestay accommodation is found in this region. This research thereforesought to put the homestay concept into perspective： Identify motivational factors behind homestay operators＇participation in the program and assess the socio-economic benefits of homestay accommodation to host families.This research adopted cross-sectional research design and made use of both primary and secondary data. Primarydata were collected by use of researcher administered semi-structured questionnaires and an interview guide.Secondary data were gathered from books, newspaper articles, academic journals, the Internet, and other relevantdocuments related to homestay. Census technique was used for the homestay operators. Hence, all the 54 homestayoperators in the county were used in the study. Descriptive analysis and chi-square test of significance were used toanalyse the data. The study revealed that the major motivation for local people participation in the homestayprogram was income and most operators considered the programme a significant contributor to theirsocio-economic well-being. These findings have important implications for the Ministry of Tourism to craftpolicies and legislations geared towards creating an enabling environment for the homestay accommodationsub-sector to grow sustainably.展开更多
