Re: How to get rid of a timeshare you no longer want ....

Besides Don P's suggestion, you can try giving it away yourself. Advertise on reputable timeshare websites such as here on RedWeek, My resort Network, Craigslist, E-Bay, or Timeshare Users Group (aka "TUG"). Advertise that you are willing to give it away to any taker. Maybe even offer to pay the closing costs (about $200) and the next maintenance fee. With a little time and effort, it could work and definitely work out to be a lot cheaper than paying a charity (or any entity for that matter) $3000 to possibly take it off your hands. TUG has a Bargain Deals section that allows you, for free, to advertise that you want to give your unit away to a willing taker.
