New York, NY- Very few things can be classified as awesome, but Kalahari Resorts and Conventions is certainly one of them. Currently, there are two Kalahari Resorts and Conventions open: the first in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin, and the second in Sandusky, Ohio. On July 1, a third location will open in the Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania, which will be a boon for East Coasters. Kalahari Resorts and Conventions is unique in many ways. One is their authentically African theme. In fact, the owners, the Nelson family, traveled to six countries in Africa last October to bring back authentic items and experiences for their guests. The resort also caters to all members of the family — from the young to the young at heart. With a mission to help families reunite, Kalahari Resorts is destined to revolutionize the waterpark industry.
Their press release explains the latest Kalahari Resorts mission: "The demands of modern life and overbooked schedules are taking a toll on family time. On average, families are spending fewer than eight hours per week with one another. Kalahari Resorts and Conventions was created for families by the Nelson family — and they are on a mission to remove family time from the Endangered List — beginning with the opening of their grandest resort to date in the Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania, on July 1, 2015."
Kalahari Resorts and Conventions, recently named the World’s Coolest Indoor Water Park by Condé Nast Traveler (2014), is sure to satisfy anyone who visits their resorts. Their new resort in the Pocono Mountains will feature Pennsylvania’s largest indoor waterpark, an outdoor waterpark with a huge outdoor pool, a sundeck for relaxing, indoor/outdoor whirlpools, and a swim-up bar. It also has a 30,000 sq. ft. family entertainment center including bowling, laser tag, and arcade games, three signature dining experiences, a 100,000 sq. ft. convention center, and more. With a vast number of family-oriented activities on premises, people of all ages are guaranteed to have a great time. As Travis Nelson, spokesman for Kalahari Resorts, said: “We are passionate about creating an unforgettable experience for families — and our new resort is unparalleled to any destination on the East Coast.” Although this sounds like a strong statement, to my surprise, it may actually be an understatement.
Here in New York City, the excitement about the new Kalahari Resorts and Conventions is palpable. I am eager to check out the resort later this summer. I especially anticipate seeing how this family resort will appeal to all ages. And based on the reports, I look forward to showing the world why everyone should go to the resort. And of course, those with families should bring their entire crews. At Kalahari Resorts, the "fun factor" will certainly be at the highest caliber and I cannot wait to experience it for myself. The hype is for real!
Stay tuned for future articles about the Kalahari Resorts!
