The purpose of this study was to offer an integrated approach to examine the theoretical and empirical evidences on the causal relationships among motivation, image, satisfaction and loyalty. A research model was proposed in which four hypotheses were developed. 268 valid questionnaires were collected in a major leisure and recreation destination-Tamsui and the data were analyzed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results supported the four hypothesises: motivation directly and positively influenced image; image directly and positively influenced satisfaction; satisfaction had a direct and positive impact on loyalty; image had a direct and positive impact on loyalty. Theory building and practical advices were also provided through discussion.
