Finally, a realistic tipping guide that doesn’t suggest you donate to the staff like they’re a charity case. It is ALL-inclusive, I’m paying for the services I’m receiving. Tipping is for above and beyond service.

Exactly 👍 Especially Americans always think oh these poor 3rd world people or something.. when I tell u how long some bartenders etc leave their tips just blowing around on the bar in the air conditioning... and I also feel a lot of people tip to make themselves feel better like an ego boost like thanks here's what u get for serving me.. idk I just feel like people have a warped skew when it comes to tipping at an all inclusive

As someone who works in a restaurant, tips are always appreciated and remembered…especially if you’re gonna be a repeat customer for several days in a row.

Same but in other countries it is viewed differently.. and my point was this video is just that if you don't have the money you don't have to tip.. it's all included 😉 Of course if you want to tip go for it!

You're welcome.. people love to try to get Americans to give all their money away 😂 I've been on so many trips where Europeans don't tip at all 🤷🏻♀️ So no one should feel pressure to tip away their whole paycheck.. any tip you can afford will be appreciated 👍

Lol. And this other channel 3 Days 3 noches says you should tip 100 dollars per day. Maids should receive 20-50 usd per time she cleans 😅

Oh oh, spending time at a swimup bar - big mistake! You NEVER go into a pool of a swimup bar: there are people there drinking for hours and hours, but mysteriously never leaving for the bathroom. I wonder why? 🤔 Yuck! 🤢

I would say about $10-15 .. we had an awesome server at the pool (we stayed there all day) so we tipped them $5 per person but we were chugging water.. we usually ate at the beach snack bar cuz it was soooo good $0 or Arecife we would just leave a $1 or so, a la cartes we usually did $3-5 depending on our server, bars at night we would tip every other drink or so cuz we loved this one bartender ☺️ Hope that helps!

So let's review history and where the practice of tipping came from. When people were indentured servants they were not paid well if at all and were expected to provide extraordinary service at all times with no labor law breaks, etc.. As society progressed wealthy people would tip low wage employees at elaborate establishments or for exclusive services that most people could never afford as an expression of respect and motivation for people that excelled in the art of hospitality to seek such employment. It was a show of class to literally tip people's income toward a living wage when pay had no type of minimum standard. First and foremost all employees should be morivated to provide superior service as a reflection of self pride in the work they do. If it's all inclusive mini bars are supposed to be replinished so if I need to call because it's not restocked I don't believe tipping is rhe right message to send. Of course there are exceptions like if guests are blowing through "freebies" to the point it's causing somebody to do more work than what they were hired ro do i.e., fill the mini bar daily. I appreciated the content of this video and since it will be my first time at an all inclusive resort I don't know exactly what to expect. I can say if tipping continues to be increasingly stressful and anxiety provoking tourism revenue is likely to suffer. That said, at other places (hotels and such) concierges were tipped according to the service they provided. IMHO scoring theater tickets to a sold out broadway show on super short notice deserves some additional compensation. Likewise, I'd tip a doorman hailing my taxi similarly as the valet with my car. Just as tipping was a sign of the times way back when there were major shifts in societal norms shifts are happening now. Employers are automatically adding surcharges and fees to help cover the rising costs of providing higher wages and even healthcare for workers. People that wait tables are paid over minimum wage now. I trust consumers will begin to shift in the right direction as well. 🙏 P.S. i luv the name TravelAndLedger ❤
