of guests. A lot wider spectrum of services will be offered
on the island and in the town, and here I am not
just talking about “Sunčani Hvar”. The town has a very
important role in this process - it will have to support
these efforts by building the infrastructure because the
guests in Hvar are still searching for an offer that would
be more adequate for their needs and expectations.
But in fifteen years time Hvar will achieve the fame and
the influence of one worldwide known and fashionable
resort, for example of Saint-Tropez. It is very important
that along the way we preserve the special features
of Hvar, but I see that all the relevant institutions in the
town, the county and the state are extremely aware
of this need and I believe that there is no fear when it
comes to devastation of space in Hvar.
Tourism is a very unstable branch of economy, influenced
by all kinds of impacts. How do you evaluate
the stability of your investment in Croatia and what
would you recommend to investors in Croatia?

Hvar bi za deset do petnaest godina mogao postati
novi Saint-Tropez/Hvar could in ten to fifteen years time
become the new Saint-Tropez
- Croatia is a current tourist hit in the world and it is the
centre of interest not just for tourists but also for investors.
But, this will not last long. We must take advantage
of the following few years in order to create in the
wider public an image of Croatia that would maintain
itself even when Croatia becomes “out of fashion”. The
most important thing for Croatian tourism is expanding
the season: when a season lasts two, two and a half
months, of course the tourism will be influenced by all
to extreme impacts, from a rainy summer to the World
Championship in Football. That is why one needs to
continue to work on a more constant level of services,
to create an offer that would attract people to come
back. Croatia does not lack in natural beauties and
environmental preservation and therefore one needs
to know how to keep this, how to develop it in a way
not to endanger it. But as I already said, the consciousness
of people here is on a very high level and there
is no danger of turning the Croatian coast into something
that nobody would like.
