摘要：The paper presents a study of the archival material and relevant literature on the development of accommodation facilities as part of the Dubrovnik District tourism supply in the Kingdom of SHS (Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes) and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. Besides the already published data for 1925 and 1934, the data on accommodation facilities in the Dubrovnik District for 1932 from the Archives of Yugoslavia in Belgrade is published for the first time. The paper also presents several reasons for successful tourism development in the south of Croatia during and after the great world crisis, when the Croatian economy was in a period of stagnation. Reorientation of business activities to tourism, a new activity developing strongly in the interwar period, represented a continuation of Dubrovnik's traditional economic orientation towards the service industry.
