Do you tip housekeeping in Indonesia?

Short answer

OptionalCash preferred

Villa and hotel housekeeping is not expected to be tipped but it makes a real difference locally. Leave it daily rather than at the end. On a private villa with dedicated staff, a lump sum for the team at the end of the stay is also common.
