A unique annual gathering of private landlords at the national level, 7. Family Accommodation Forum (FOS), will be held on Saturday, March 18th starting at 10:30 am at the Westin Hotel in Zagreb.
The seventh edition of FOS will offer landlords tools for some of the biggest challenges they face: increasing competition, legal and tax regulations and keeping up with fast-changing trends.
Competition in private accommodation in tourism is extremely high. According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics for 2019, family and private accommodation make up 61% of the total offer of accommodation capacity in the country. The challenge for providers of family accommodation is to ensure occupancy in the off-season.
"At FOS, we will stimulate the conversion of family accommodation into innovative types of accommodation with added values through investments in the quality of accommodation facilities, especially in the segment of small family hotels", explained the director of the Tourism Sector of HGK Andreja Vukojevic.
He will hold a lecture on achieving long-term sustainable family tourism Nedo Pinezić, Nikolina Novinić will present the important role of good communication with guests. At the end there will be a lecture Ljerke Markota on the tax position of providers of household accommodation.
