The hotel was beautiful but.. to start we had a room by the outdoor water park right by the interstate, all night long we could hear the traffic like we were outside! We paid over $400 for our room, that is not right!!!! There is no sound dampening whatsoever! At 2am none of us could sleep so I walked down to the front desk, I told the person ...
We liked the great "beat the clock" rate they had as when you add in the waterpark charges and hotel charges, you can't beat it. The kids had a lot of fun. However, the staff has limited English skills, or are students and young and could careless. The front desk is an absolute nightmare no matter when you go - even midweek. ...
My family stayed in June from Wednesday to Sunday. The staff was always helpful, we arrived on a Wednesday and were upgraded to a 2 bedroom suite compliments of the hotel. My kids were never bored! We painted pottery, played in the water, played in the game room! It was truly a first family vacation where I can say that I was so relaxed and had ...

I stayed at the Kalahari for a business conference. I needed some cash, but my bank had just issued a new ATM card and new pin number, and I did not have it with me. When I asked the assistant manager if they could cash a small check, the answer was "no, try the casino or bank." I found a small bank in downtown Wisconsin Dells, and the ...
In wisconsin it's a freezing winter but the second you walk into the hotel you're in your swimsuit. Going when it's not summer saves you A Lot of money too. I had the Royal King Whirl Pool Suite. The room had a jacuize, flatscreen TV, a two-person shower and mini fridge. Great room for a couple to get. Arrive early on your first day and ...

Overcrowded, poorly managed, not worth the money at all
We were looking forward to a short vacation to meet with another friend from Wisconsin.
When we arrived the parking lot was so full, we could not find a space- so we drove up and down the aisles until someone left. Then we had to wait in a long line with 2 small children to check in at the front desk. I would say that between parking and ...

THINK AGAIN AND RESEARCH MORE
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/26/07
I've been to all the big resorts in the Dells. The Kalahari is priced the same as lets say the Wilderness Resort. The Kalahari's indoor/outdoor waterpark is too small for the amount of people they are trying to serve. Lines are way too long and there was barely any room to walk. If you are planning a waterpark vacation for your family ...
We loved our room and the amenities. Everything was always kept neat and clean! We also loved the location, in relation to other sites-to-see in Wisconsin Dells, such as other amusement parks, restaurants, and "YES, LADIES -- SHOPPING!" The Kalahari Resort had a fun schedule for families to participate in, if they chose to do so. The ...

A Great Mini Vacation!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/11/07
My family and I returned from the Kalahari on Friday and we're already trying to plan another stay there! We got a really great online deal for our room! Upon arrival, our check in was very quick. The front desk staff is not all that excited about their jobs but I'm pretty sure they are college students just there to earn their money. ...

The family had a blast!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/09/07
We have had been to the Kalahari 4 times. Each time we have an awsome time. The only bad part was each time we have stayed their we have found mold on the shower curtain. For how much your paying a night you think they could get new shower curtains. But other then that. The water park is very nice. My familys favorite ride is the Master ...
