Abstract: The adoption of the circular economy model has become a key strategy to promote innovation, efficiency, and sustainability as a way to increase competitiveness. Although this topic has gained particular relevance in recent years, it has been noted that the tourism sector in Cuba is one of those that has incorporated the fewest sustainable practices, with some progress being made in transforming the management of the activity to align with international demand trends. In this context, this research study aims to analyze the state of scientific production on trends and best practices in the circular economy and its use as a tool for tourism competitiveness from 2018 to 2024. The PRISMA review methodology was used to select articles from the Scopus and Dimensions databases. The following methods were used: synthetic analysis, bibliographic review, and descriptive statistics. In addition, software such as R-Studio and VOSviewer were employed. The findings highlight an increase in the number of publications since 2020, which demonstrates the growing trend in research. Countries such as Spain, Greece, Italy, and Australia have emerged as leaders in generating quality research in this field.
