How can I deed back my timeshare at Orange Lake in Orlando, Florida?

I believe that's a Holiday Inn timeshare now? If so I recently posted this....hopefully it helps. It will need to be paid in full, and up to date on all fees. They do charge a fee for their deed back program.

Here’s the website where you can submit a request to begin the process for a deed back according to Holiday Inn Club’s website:
Holiday Inn Horizons Page

It looks like the fee is $1,200, just make sure you’re caught up on payments. If you’re sure you want to proceed, starting at the beginning of the year might help you avoid paying for an additional year. That said, I can’t confirm if they’d charge this early, so keep that in mind.

Here’s another helpful link shared on TUG by TUGBrian with more information: This lays out all your options....

If you fill out the form on the Horizons page, that should be a good starting point!

Good luck, and I hope this helps!

Wow. This used to be free. Then they started charging a couple hundred. Now it's $1200!

Many people forget...what you buy into...you also have to buy out of.

Many people continue paying fees while waiting to exit, and unfortunately, delaying the decision can sometimes lead to higher costs. In my experience, deed back offers don’t tend to improve over time—they often become more expensive.

Take Wyndham Vacation Resorts (WVR) as an example. They once (very recently) offered a limited-edition deed back option that included three years of free usage for many owners. Now, their exit program has shifted to a simple turnover option. Timing is crucial—while you shouldn’t exit before you’re ready, it’s also important not to wait too long once you’ve made the decision.

With Wyndham’s exit program, if you knew three years ago that you wanted out, that was a great opportunity. Even now, it remains a good time to exit if you own something they’re still accepting back for free. However, they don’t take everything—many converted fixed weeks are being denied. If you’re looking to exit, it’s worth considering that while the process is free, you will still be responsible for maintenance fees until the transfer is complete.

Are you referring to Club Wyndham? Someone reported to using their Limited Edition Ovation program as recently as December 2024. I do agree though, better to take the opportunity while it is there because these programs never get better. Back about 12 years ago Marriott Vacation Club had an active buyback program where they would offer cash for weeks. Now they offer no cash and will take stuff back for free. They only pay for the real high-end stuff now.

Yes I was referring to Club Wyndham Limited access. people have been reporting its no longer being offered. Just a give back now through certified exit, formally ovations. Limited edition is where they get the 3 years of free usage. Maybe that has since changed but if I recall it was around December when people were being told that its no longer being offered.
