We have reservations at Disney's Grand Floridian Spa for a Swedish massage. Its $115 for each of us. What is the gratuity for this service? Is it like 10% or just $5.00 or what? Can I hear from some of you disney workers out there?

i haven't worked there, but if i were going i would plan on 10-15% or anywhere from $10-15. Also, you might want to find out ahead of time if gratuity is included in the price. (I know if you use the Disney Dining Plan for the restaurants, tax & tip is included)
Another thing to consider is how long is the massage? if it is for an hour, $15-20. (again, this would be my choice) but if it just 20 or 30 minutes, i would go with $10.

Ok well when I do those types of things I usually tip more than others! I tipped the chef at one restuarant in Vegas 25 bucks just because he made it exactly the way I wanted it! and then at a massage place in LA I tipped $100 because I felt that it was worth it! it just depends on how well the service is and how good their reputation is on the business! I would probably say $20-25 since its not that expensive for the massage and also its not like your gonna die if you give them $15-20 more! Hope you enjoy your massage!

My cousin worked at the Grand Floridian Spa for 5 years (she works at the wedding pavilion now) and according to her, the tips the masseurs/masseuses get range from nothing at all to $50.00 and more from the really rich (and really generous). So there's no set amount for tip. I use the 15% rule generally, and if I get good service I usually tip 20%.

Generally, you tip between 15-20% at a spa depending on service. When we go to Burke Williams, we almost always do at least 20% sometimes 25% if it was really nice.

OK as an Ex Disney employee..I would say you tip them on their service, Grand Flo has really good masseuses so I would tip like a waiter 15%. And don't forget to look for the hidden Mickey's on all the rides

I'd say 15% to 25%; it all depends on their services. Give a little more when you feel like you are in heaven.

As a massage therapist myself. You have to remember when we work in a spa, we do not get the 115.00 we get usually less then half. If was a good massage I say between $10.00-$15.00 tip.
