Staying in a cabana on Saturday, and wondering what we should tip the cabana host for the day. There will be 4 of us. Any info is appreciated.
I know this is already past, but I'm curious what your experience was.
We had one last weekend (#8 on the family beach and about as perfect as possible) and we wound up not tipping, mostly because there was no opportunity!
The driver took us to our cabana, a host showed us around for a couple of minutes, and then we didn't use any service until we called to be driven back. We didn't order bar drinks, didn't need anything restocked, and walked ourselves to lunch and the restrooms.
We were still intending to throw the guy $20 at the end of the day just in case they were counting on tip income, but after he called for the golf cart at the end of the day he scampered off before we could do anything but holler "bye!" at his retreating back.
This is not a complaint, mind you. We didn't want to be hovered over. It just struck me that maybe tipping isn't a big thing for the cabana hosts. He certainly wasn't lingering or doing anything to indicate he expected one and you aren't given an envelope or anything.
