    So I'm too lazy to look up the conversions--what are 20 and 50 peso notes worth in US dollars?

    At this time the Peso to Dollar it just under 18 to 1 and changes day to day.
    20 Pesos will be around $1.11 and 50 Pesos will be around $2.80 USD.

    Do they have turndown service at Temptations? When I am on vacation, I am usually still asleep when housekeeping comes a knocking. I depend on the turndown service to do the straightening up and replenishment of towels and toiletries.

    Never had it in the past (that I ever received or was aware of), but it is on the list of amenities for all room types now.

    I do envelopes for every day. Starting with the airport run.....tips for bags....then tips for driver ...then Charlie (hopefully still there) who gladly carries our bags to our room. From then on it's at least $5 a day for the maid....(you never know when they change shifts) $3 for breakfast table server.....$1 - 2 for our omlette/egg maker at the grill....$1 - 2 per drink(s) ....Saby gets much more.....Lunch $5.....and dinner is usually at least $10 especially for the nice restaurants. Night time drinks are basically the same.....if we are in a group we all take turns tipping whoever is TAKING care of us. Every day hubby just pulls out another envelope! Plenty of 1's 2s 5's and 10's. I also like to give tips to the groundskeepers and the washroom ladies......They ALL work hard.

    I do envelopes too. That way I don't have to worry about being organized... or over/under tipping. I just get to have fun :D

    we where at the pool this weekend and Rich found a 20 peso bill in his board shorts pocket. I guess we did not tip enough that day. LOL
