Do you tip for condos?

[msquoted]

We are staying offsite at Windsor Palms. We always tip housekeeping daily when we stay at hotels but we aren't sure if we should leave a tip after leaving the condo?

We never have.

I suppose it would be a nice gesture if you are inclined. I've always just assumed that since the Cleaning Service is hired by the Condo Owners, it is up to them to tip or not.

No

LOL- makes a lot more sense that they would have hired a cleaning service. For some reason, I was picturing the owner of the condo cleaning up after us

We do not tip because the condos we rent include a cleaning fee of $75-$95. We're not going to tip on top of that.

I agree that if I'm paying a cleaning fee, I don't tip on top of that....

I've never had to pay a cleaning fee, but I do agree with the above. When we go to stay at our DVC, I always leave $20 at the end of the trip. There are four of us and we stay 5 nts, so a dollar a day per person seems okay to me.

Most of the Condos you rent offsite, not necessarily the time shares but the places that you rent from the owner's such as Windsor Hills, Windsor Palms etc, .. they quote a base rate and then there are a couple of fees that may or may not be optional. Cleaning Fee, Pool Heat Fee, BBQ Grill Rental …. some of them just roll it into one flat rate and some will list it out separate.
