Tipping Mouse Keeping at Walt Disney World

At the Walt Disney World Resort, you will find that they call the people who work there “cast members” as their official title. The lovely people who clean your room also have a unique name! Instead of “Housekeeping” they are referred to as “MouseKeeping”.

When you book a Deluxe Disney Resort or Villa, MouseKeeping comes to your room daily to refresh it. When you stay at a Value or Moderate Resort they come every other day.

I personally enjoy tipping Mouse keeping. I roll up to the bank before our trip and get a fresh wad of crisp $2 bills just for the fun of it. I love that the $2 bills add some magic unlike regular currency.

The easiest place to get pre-made MouseKeeping tip holders is ETSY. My favorite little boutique for such a need is called LoveToInkStudios. I recently just ordered a package of 8 for less than $6. They even shipped for free and you cant beat that!

How much to tip? That is up to you! For my family of 4, I tipped them $6 a night. Since we were staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge on our last trip, I made sure I had enough for all of the nights there. It’s not much, but is a token of my appreciation for coming back to a refreshed room and always a little pixie dust in how they may surprise you with a towel animal on your bed!

Generosity and kindness go so far. The cast members at all Disney Destinations are the magic. They are the ones creating these special moments for you and our family.
