I don't have the opportunity to travel often, so my WDW trip in April will be the first time I've ever stayed in a really nice hotel (CR). I need advice on how much to tip. Please tell me what would be appropriate to tip the bell hop and housekeeping. Do I leave a tip for housekeeping each day of my stay or on the last day? What should I tip the town car driver?
Thanks for the help!!!

I tip housekeeping $1 per person per day. If I travel by myself, I usually tip $2 per day. I try to remember to tip every day, but sometimes forget, so I'll double up the next day. When I stayed at the Beach Club, I left a tip every day, but the maid never took it.

For bellmen, I tip $1 per bag for basic luggage delivery. If I only have one bag, I usually tip $2.

I tip the town car driver $10 each way. I'm usually by myself, so I don't have much luggage. If I'm with someone, and we have lots of luggage, I usually bump that tip up by a buck for each large bag.

We tip mousekeeping $5 per day for 4 of us. We tip bell hops $1 per bag and valet parket $2 each time we park or pick up the car. This is the same amount we tip when we stay at any hotel/motel.
 
We usually leave $3 in the morning and then $2-3 in the evening for the turndown. So that's about $5-6 a day. For bags we tip about $1 per bag, sometimes more if we have tons of awkward baby gear for them to lug around. ;)
