Resumen: Este artículo analiza el efecto del todo-incluido en la competitividad de un destino turístico. Cuando el aumento de la oferta del todo-incluido causa una externalidad negativa en los servicios complementarios, se crea un efecto tamaño de mercado. Esto resulta en una oferta excesiva de todo-incluido en el mercado. La imposición de impuestos turísticos diferenciados para las ofertas todo-incluido y no todo incluido, es más efectiva que limitar la oferta del todo-incluido. Los impuestos implementan la asignación óptima. Se espera que los efectos negativos del efecto tamaño de mercado tengan lugar en mercados maduros.

Palabras clave: Todo incluido, competitividad, industria hotelera, externalidades, regulación.

Abstract: This study analyzes the impact of all-inclusive offerings on a destination's competitiveness. When the rise in all-inclusive offerings causes a negative externality on complementary services, it creates a market-size effect. This results in an excessive supply of all-inclusive offerings in the market. Imposing different taxes on all-inclusive and non-all-inclusive offerings is more effective than a cap on the supply of all-inclusive offerings. Taxes can implement the optimal allocation. We expect the market-size effect to be harmful to competitiveness in mature destinations.

Keywords: All-inclusive, competitiveness, hotel industry, externalities, regulation.
