Tipping Housekeeping at SSR?

I was wondering that since we are only staying 6 days 5 nights which means we are only getting trash and towel service I think on day 3 or 4, how much of a tip we should leave at the end? DH thinks that we should see if we see housekeeping around our unit and tip her then and get the towels etc but I think that we should just wait until the end but then we both dont know how much to give since they really arent doing much while we are there....
Just wondering!

Re: Tipping Housekeeping at SSR?

We tip daily, but I have never stayed there, so I am not sure, sorry I can't help you more!

Re: Tipping Housekeeping at SSR?

When staying at OKW this past time, I tipped $5 on towell service day and $10 at the end when they had to clean up after us. I also ghad 6 people staying with me. Whe nI moved to the studio, I didn't get towell service cause I only stayed three nights, but I did leave $5 at the end for cleaning as there were only three of us and we didn't leave a mess.

Re: Tipping Housekeeping at SSR?

I used to tip on the first full service day, but on the last trip, the Mousekeeper was not up to par so I will now wait until we leave to determine what I will leave.

When staying in a non DVC resort, it is easy to tip each day. You know what service to expect from day to day.

Re: Tipping Housekeeping at SSR?

Thanks for the help.... I think we will leave a tip on the day towel/trash service and then leave something when we check out.... DH tends to get a little messy so I will leave more at the end... lol
