Abstract
Strong expansion of public-private partnership (PPP) in the last two decades in the world has not bypassed tourism where many forms of partnership and numerous finished projects can be identified. However, despite the fact that tourism is recognized as a powerful generator of economic activity, Croatia does not have extensive experience with public-private partnerships in tourism. That does not mean that partnerships should be formed rashly. Instead, only partnerships that adhere to the strictly defined criteria of both sectors should be set up. The aim of this paper is to analyse legal framework and to identify major public and private sector criteria for implementing PPPs in Croatian tourism. The research has shown that according to identified criteria, BOT model is optimal PPP and some recommendations to accelerate the implementation of that model were proposed.
