Tipping butlers at sandals resorts.

During your sandals vacation you ll notice that the butlers pay attention to detail in a way that guests are never left disappointed. On resort sandals and beaches follow a strict no tipping policy with 2 exceptions. Sandals have a strict no tipping rule in all their resorts but this does not apply to their butler service. They were the best.

Shuttle bus drivers and or private drivers. Regarding the amount of tip we tell our clients the more you use them the greater you should tip just remember that sandals butlers are the only ones on the property that will be able to accept tips besides spa personnel. Sandals and beaches resorts take great pride in training all of their staff members to provide top level service without accepting tips. Therefore when booking butler service rooms at sandals resorts you should budget anything from 50 100 a day in addition to your holiday budget.

What to tip a resort butler. While at sandals whitehouse we tipped out butlers on the last day we gave them each 200 for a 8 night stay our friends who traveled with us did the same. This is because sandals has already included the cost of the gratuities into their all inclusive package. It is considered standard to tip a butler who provides good service 5 percent of the room rate.

The butler service is what made the trip for us. Your do tip your butlers. Off resort whenever you are off the resorts follow the same practices you would at home tipping waitstaff bartenders tour guides and other service providers for good service. I suggest tipping them 1 to 2 a bag.

Sandals butlers are often the most personable of staff at the resort and those who make it to the ranks of butler do so because of their passion to help and make people happy. That said how much you tip your butler is ultimately up to your discretion. Read my review for the resort it talks about everything they did for us. Tipping of butlers is not.

For example if you stay at a place that costs 250 per night for four nights the total room rate would be 1 000 and the butler s share would be 50. Once again the bus drivers are outsourced by sandals and are allowed to accept tips. That means that you ve already paid the tips when you prepaid your vacation before your arrival. So do you need a butler what does a butler do is a butler suite worth the extra cost and how much do you tip a butler at sandals.

For example if your room rate is 300 per night and you stay five nights your total room expense would be 1 500 and you would tip your butler 75. If a butler provides good service it is standard to tip 5 percent of the room rate. For tipping guidelines and more information please contact us using the form below or at call us at 817 386 0701.
