This paper outlines the findings from an empirical investigation to ascertain whether differences in perception of the impacts of tourism and how tourism should be sustainably developed exist between five stakeholder groups in Obudu Mountain Resort: residents, entrepreneurs, tourists, local government employees and tourism students. Data were collected from stakeholders using 359 self-administered questionnaires. The variation in differences was very evident for increases in alcoholism, prostitution and sexual permissiveness, and the need for family-owned tourism businesses to be encouraged for the sustainable development of Obudu Mountain Resort.
