Zusammenfassung:Conventional tourism, powered from the 1970's with the offer of sun and beach destinations, propelled the creation of MSME's on tourism and restaurant sector. The Caribbean region, world famous by its beaches, was benefited from it and many of these establishments over thirty years of operations continuing to provide their services. As seen in the area of Grand Tourism, the hotel facilities and services were modernized and acquired new policies. However, there are many small or medium size hotels that support its existence in a simple, classic service. This research aims by applying a semi-structured interview directed to owners and managers to identify indicators that demonstrate how these companies remain. This study is directed to Tourist destinations along Puerto Rico Island and to identify the relationship that may exist between permanence and management from the perspective of 1970 classic tourism and grand tourism recent or new proposals.
