At La Terrasse where we stayed from May 11-23--- as a renter-- we had daily maid service-- in the resort hand book-- it stated that maid service for time share owners was mid week--and daily was at an additional charge--I'm not sure how many times they changed the bedding--- but they made the bed-- washed any dishes that were in the sink--swept and washed the floor--took out the trash (Read: Corona and Absolute bottles)-I left a $5 a day tip when we vacated---I probably over tip---but I'd rather spend a few extra bucks than stiff some working stiff-- maids or cabbies---it's the same with bellmen----sure they are expected to take your bags to your room--- that's what they get paid for---but in any hotel I've ever stayed at I always tip for that service---do I leave a maid tip if I'm on a weekend getaway??
no---but for stays longer than a weekend- with daily service-- I always do--I am never on such a tight budget that I turn into Mr. Scrooge---I'd rather have a happy happy than a crank--chbpod
