Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has generated a complex social phenomenon reflected in global psycho-emotional and behavioral group or individual manifestations. Regarding the tourism field, in our country, the statistical data provided by the National Institute of Statistics for the COVID-19 pandemic period indicate low values of the index of net use of tourist accommodation, with significant differences between urban and rural areas. On the other hand, the structure of population expenditures indicates their priority orientation towards ensuring basic needs, an orientation that can also be explained by the side effects generated by the specific context of the pandemic.
