Not asking him to do much. He will pick up in the club car, bring complimentary coconuts and sweets daily, may have fold clothes before leaving.

Thanks for any advice!
Historically, we most often tip our butler when we have a specific butler for the entire stay, which is rare, or tip the butler team for other more common stays. It has varied usually between $10-50 per day if I recall correctly, depending on how much we needed them and how helpful we felt they were. When we have only had different butlers for coffee service and packing/unpacking, we have not always left a tip. Once we had our own butler in a very amazing circumstance and tipped her $500 over our 6 night stay.
