If you feel your timeshare maintenance fees no longer represent good value for money, or you believe you were mis-sold, there are several options available that will ensure you won't have to pay your 2026 timeshare maintenance fees.
Getting out of a timeshare contract can often feel like walking through a minefield blindfolded. However, it doesn't have to be that way. Our article on Genuine Timeshare Exit Companies will help you sort the wheat from the chaff.
Our simple 2026 timeshare maintenance fee guide will ensure that you exit your timeshare safely, legally and without worry. If you need help with any of the options below, get in touch. Our advice and guidance are free of charge, and all of our services are provided without the payment of any upfront fees.
Option 1.
Contact your resort.
Some timeshare companies will take back your timeshare ownership, free of charge. The pool of companies willing to do this is decreasing, but it's always worth asking the question.
It's important to bear in mind that, if you are offered this option, that you maybe asked to sign a waiver that prevents you from making a claim for compensation. If you are uninterested in getting any money back, than this is the most practical solution.
If your timeshare is in the USA and the resort agrees to take it back, it's important to understand that you will have to pay public notary fees in the UK, which can sometimes exceed what we charge for a relinquishment.
Option 2.
Sell Your Timeshare.
This option has never been a genuine way to dispose of a timeshare, as the timeshare resale market has been more than a fallacy. However, some resorts and timeshare systems, such as Disney Points, have a robust owner-to-owner market.
If you're asked to pay an advertising fee by a resale company, think again! There's a better chance of winning the lottery than of getting your timeshare sold! Maybe you could consider transferring the ownership to your family? If not, move to the next option below.
