This work combines the fuzzy best-worst method for assigning weights of indicators and the fuzzy simple additive weighting method for evaluating performance, along with the TALC model, in generating a single-valued index that would holistically describe the performance of a destination (e.g. small islands). Grounded on a real-world application, the evaluation process proved useful in evaluating the performance of Bantayan Island (Philippines), with a high degree of flexibility in dealing with variations of domain applications with different groups of decision-makers in different settings. The findings, although highly case-specific, offer starting points of discussion in managing small island destinations. © 2022 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
