The rapid development of tourist destinations has significantly influenced the city of Tomohon, particularly in the Woloan sub-district, which is now experiencing considerable growth and increased competitiveness. This study aims to analyze the effect of Destination Attractiveness and Destination Image on Revisit Intention in Lokon View, located on Jl. Nimawanua, Woloan Satu Village, West Tomohon District, Tomohon City, North Sulawesi. The survey, conducted through questionnaires, included a sample of 100 respondents from Millennials Generation who have visited Lokon View. Data were analyzed using SPSS 25.
