COVID passports could bring us so many desired tourists. However, part of the apartment owners where tourists were staying are now kicking them out and giving them to long-term lease or selling. The decline in the number of objects of private landlords is most pronounced in larger cities. Nevertheless, in the Croatian Tourism Association they have a general plan for the start of the season. Barbara is one of the landlords whose eyes are fixed on another tourist year. If it exists. "The Croatian Association of Family Accommodation. Of course, I'm afraid of the season and whoever says they're not afraid is lying and shows no respect for what they do. I'm afraid of last-minute cancellations," said Barbara Marković, but she does not plan to give up on tourism. She believes that this season will occupy 10 to 15 percent more than last year. Exactly around that percentage is also the number of apartments evacuated in Dalmatia. Martina Nimac Kalcina, the president of the HGKA Family Tourism Association, pointed out that in Split, about 10 percent of the evacuated apartments are. There are also some in Zagreb where properties were previously bought for tourism, and now some of the owners give them to long-term lease or sell, said the owner of the real estate agency Boro Vujović. "The solution is to sell or give them to long-term lease, that's it, the property just stands idle, it's just an expense, no income," stressed Vujović. It seems that fewer people want to engage in tourism. According to HTZ data, the number of objects of private landlords is now 101,934, in March 2020 it was 106,721, and in March 2019 the number of objects was 102,499. COVID passports could, however, make tourists' path to Croatia easier. "I believe it will happen and I believe it will be one of the conditions that we are ready to welcome the tourist season that should start late in May," said Kristjan Staničić from the Croatian Tourism Association. The moderate decline in the number of objects in domestic households is most pronounced in larger cities such as Split, Zadar, Šibenik, but also Zagreb, say in HTZ. Source: dnevnik.hr
