What the Maui Fun Company needs from you:
In order for us to provide a positive experience for you and your family there are some things we require from you. This helps us in providing the correct information to the vendor and scheduling your events if there are any issues.
1. Add our e-mail address to your address book. This is important as you may not receive our e-mail confirmations, driving directions and vouchers without doing this as spam filters and firewall's sometimes prevent our e-mails from reaching you.
2. Check your spam folder carefully before doing a mass delete. All of our e-mails to you will include the word Oahu or text pertaining to your vacation activities you have scheduled with us.
3. Print everything we send you out and bring all of it with you.
4. If for some reason you haven't received anything from us within 24 hours of making your reservation request, call us because there is a problem and we need to solve it.
5. Cell phones are a great contact tool. Most vendors ask for one. It's how they contact you to reconfirm. A cell phone contact is also helpful for us if there are any sudden issues pertaining to your activities. It enables us to contact you and keep you informed. So it's a really good idea to include one with your reservation request. If you haven't done so, please e-mail us with it. Please keep your cell phone on and charged.
6. Your arrival dates are critical. You need to be accurate as that is how we determine when to process your vouchers. If you review this reservation request and they are incorrect, please e-mail us with the correct arrival and departure dates.
7. Please reply to us when you receive your vouchers. This is the only way we know you have what you need.
8. Sign the tickets.
Normal Ticket / Voucher Delivery:
All tickets / vouchers are electronic. Our processing policies under normal conditions are to process your vouchers 10 days before your arrival and e-mail them to you. We will call you when we process them to alert you that they have arrived in your in box. You need to print them, sign them and bring them to Oahu. Please note that every vendor requires a signed ticket from you. If you haven't received them for some reason, call us immediately! We will resend them.
Short Notice Ticket / Voucher Delivery:
All tickets / vouchers are still electronic. If your reservation request was made within the normal 10 days before arrival processing timeframe and you haven't departed for Oahu yet, we will process your tickets as soon as we confirm your activities.

(cell phone contact number required) We will also fax a copy of the ticket and driving directions to your resort so you will have a voucher. You should know that some of the condos are difficult in faxing a ticket to for you for pick up as they keep irregular office hours. In this case you may want to opt for using an Internet Cafe to access your e-mail to retrieve your vouchers. If you haven't received them for some reason, call us immediately! We will resend them. Please note that there are other means available if this delivery method doesn't work for you. We will detail all options regarding this with you when we speak with you.
Oahu & Timeshare!
The Maui Fun Company Inc. / Activity Savers Oahu doing business as Activity Savers Maui is proud of the fact that we offer our guests discounted tickets for Oahu activities and No Timeshare is required! We will never promote timeshare today, tomorrow, ever!
As a consumer you should be aware of the fact that there are many web sites promoting timeshare on Oahu. Timeshare promoters will lure you with what appears to be deeply discounted tickets in order to entice you into attending a timeshare presentation. Simply put it's not worth your time.
You can save money by scheduling your Oahu activities with the Maui Fun Company / Activity Savers Oahu without attending a timeshare presentation.
It is hardly worth the 5 hours of time spent in one of these grueling high pressure sales pitches, for a few dollars more.
Your time is limited while on Oahu and there are so many things to do. Your Oahu Vacation should be spent enjoying Oahu instead of in a high pressure sales presentation. If owning timeshare on Oahu is something that works for you, avoid the high pressure sales pitches and check out the resale market. Plenty of inventory to choose from and it is all Oahu property. Not some motel 6 in Kansas. And much less expensive!
