My husband works in timeshare. You can try selling it on your own, but that might not be your best bet. There are many timeshare resale companies now. You can even do it over the internet without meeting at an office. I say look at a few companies and see who has sold more resales. They should also be able to help you with renting it out also. I put some sources at the bottom I hope they help. Good luck selling your timeshare!

Whatever you do, DO NOT pay anyone an upfront fee for any reason - not an ad fee, or "appraisal" fee or anything, even if they have a buyer for you. If you choose to sell on your own be cautious of buyer inquiries because the scams out there are quite detailed and often seem legit, but end up taking you for false closing costs or some upfront fee. A seller can pay any fees due at closing from proceeds AND a third party licensed closing company should be used (one you can research and contact directly). Check the bbb.org for any company you come in contact with and if they have less than an A rating or are not in business long enough to have a BBB profile or good rating, avoid them like the plague!
You can learn more about common scams and how to avoid them at the link below.
You can also place a FREE listing ad with Premier Timeshare Resale to sell or rent. They are licensed real estate agents and can at the very least advise you of your options and your timeshare's value (if any).
Good luck!

Took us 4 years, so be patient!! Didn't make much on it either. But we figured we got our use out of in the 12 years we had it and sold it virtually for what we bought it for... NOT a great investment!!
We tried a real estate company; timeshare company and the management company overseeing the unit. The management company sold it, took two years...
Good luck!

Try ebay.
Also promote it with your friends.
I don't recommend you to sell it, use it, that's why you buy it in first place, unless you don't want to have more vacations for the rest of your life.
Also give it for the mantenance fee to your close ones.
Check also time share users group to rent it or sell it.
Good luck
