Camping tourism is known as one of the oldest special forms of tourism. With the development of tourism, it’s supply and demand, camping tourism becomes the basis for the development of glamping tourism, a combination of nature and luxury. France, Portugal and Slovenia were the first countries in Europe who recognized the trend of glamping tourism because of its ability to easily adapt to all segments of demand due to its coherency among relaxation in nature and luxury with entertainment, sports, adventure and culture. This form of tourism in the Republic of Croatia developed much later than in the rest of Europe. In recent years, it has developed rapidly along the coast of Croatia and has attracted a large number of new consumers. The Istria County stood out with its wide glamping offer and attraction of new tourist segments. Glamping tourism supports the development of sustainable tourism and all components of sustainable development and therefore attracts tourists who have a positive mindset about destination sustainability. By moving away from 3S tourism, this form of tourism has the potential to develop on the entire territory of the Republic of Croatia. It respects and maintains green areas and meets the needs of different segments of tourist consumers. Precisely because of these facts, glamping could become the main form of tourism through which Croatia will recover from the pandemic. The pandemic has taught many of us what power nature has and how it can be used. Apart from the fact that glamping satisfies the conditions of social distance, staying in the fresh air and mental rest, it can satisfy the needs of all generations and segments of tourists. Also, an increasing number of tourists support the development of sustainability, and since glamping respects all components of sustainable tourism, it represents an additional positive effect on the perception of tourists about staying in nature in luxurious conditions.
