Summary/Abstract: Today we are facing the attempts of redefining the concept of tourism, especially in our country, since most people choose to travel to areas outside the country: Greece, Turkey, Italy, Spain, England, because they have relatives working abroad, where the costs of accommodation are lower, or they are simply not satisfied with the services provided by the accommodation units in our country. A particular aspect regarding tourism is related to ethical considerations: some people who would like to travel within our country believe that the services bare hidden costs, which are not shown by the pension owners from the very beginning, especially where villages are concerned. Thus, one can say that many managers of tourism companies do not fully comply with the ethical and moral principles, which leads to the violation of the standards and norms in force.
