Once again stayed at the Kalahari, only downside is our room was by the convention center and it was impossible to find a parking spot anywhere near during the day, next time we will request a room nearer to the lobby. the new swim up bar and adults only hot tub area is a great addition, nice to be able...

Thank you for the review. I am sorry to hear about the parking situation. The swim-up bar with the indoor/outdoor hot tub is a great way to escape the crowd of the Waterpark without actually leaving. Enjoy the rest of your summer and we'll see you again soon. More

This was our first visit to Kalahari Wisconsin Dells. We have been to Sandusky before, so we sort of had an idea of what we might expect. I was torn between a 3 and a 4, if there was a 3 1/2 that is what I would give. I will start with the hotel/room: I got a great package just... More

The money for the room is not worth the water park you get in my opinion. The water park was a lot of fun, just not a ton to do compared to the wilderness. The water coaster is fun and so are the other rides. The kids place was neat. The life guards however need talking to! They needed to... More

Thank you for coming to visit us and letting us know your thoughts. We very much appreciate you taking a moment to review our resort after your visit. I will be sure to pass along your thoughts to our waterpark director. He can look into the lazy river concern. Hopefully you enjoyed the new drop slides, and indoor/outdoor whirlpools, along... More

We spent so much time playing at the water park. I didn't really get wet but my children just didn't seem to get enough of it.

My friends and I (all in our 20's) stayed at the hotel for 2 nights during a long weekend. It was very affordable since 4 people stayed in one room. The hotel is very nice and nicely decorated. The entire motif is African, with plenty of animal statues, pictures, etc. There are multiple restaurants and places to eat in the... More

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at Kalahari Resort. I am sorry to hear the outdoor waterpark was closed while you were there. It is open during the summer season depending on weather conditions. The Sahara Sidewinders are my favorite slides so I'm glad you all enjoyed them too!

The staff were really awesome! We were impressed and have three kids varying in ages; with both the inside and outside water parks we had a great time. Felt Disney like with how good the staff were, food not the best and pricey but plan accordingly!

Thanks for sharing your experience with us. I hope you were all able to find different slides and things to do at both the indoor and outdoor waterparks! We train our staff to go above and beyond and I am happy you witnessed that. Next time check out the Indoor Theme Park! I hear the Ferris Wheel calling your name! More
