Sažetak

While developing its tourism, every tourist destination must be ecologically oriented in order to obtain a stabile ecological balance in both sustaining and prudent use of its environment. According to this, economical consumption of poor goods is understood, together with its orientation towards the renewable energy sources.
In order to promote sustainable development of a tourist destination, the strong co-operation between local authorities, tourism boards and authorities entitled for environmental protection is an absolute priority.
It is noted that because of the insufficient education and information, along with large initial costs, neither a satisfactory organization of environmental protection, nor the submitting or the application of the reports on environment and on renewable energy sources are possible.
The purpose of the study is to analyze the awareness of the need for the ecologically oriented management concept in the four and five star hotels in Istarska and Primorsko-goranska County.
The aim of the paper is to provide concrete and useful information to the hoteliers and further more to the business environment, in order to emphasize the importance of environmental protection in achieving sustainable development of tourism destination.
