The kids had a nice time but were not tall enough to do boogie boards or most of the slides. To bad between the two kids they got 300 tickets and really couldn't get anything worth wild. We got a 50 dollar arcade credit and it came in 2 25 dollar cards. I took my 4 year old son my best friend and her 5 year old granddaughter. Please note tvs cannot be hooked up to computers, so bring your own tablets, etc.So I found an over night at kalahari on Groupon. The kids had no problem watching youtube or netflix. The internet in the room and lobby was super fast 25 to 35 megabytes per second. Overall the resort is well kept but is showing its age in places as it has been open since 2005.

For dinner we ventured offsite to Danny's and Longhorn's as recommended on Tripadvisor. Costs were about average with 11 dollars for eggs benedict. 100 dollar voucher included in the groupon entertained the kids for two evenings. The park was very quiet and had little or no wait times to go down the slides. There were lots of variety of slides for their age group some challenging and some easy. My 5 year old and 3 year old both loved the water park. We found it to be very good value overall.

Our family of four just finished staying two nights mid week in November on the groupon special. Every customer service representative we had contact with was extremely helpful and friendly. I think we could have spent a lot more money, and, honestly, this trip would have been out of our budget if we had to pay full price. By Saturday afternoon, it was getting a little too busy for comfort, but we were tired out by then anyway. The kids had a Friday off school, so we took the opportunity to go on a non-holiday, non-weekend day. We stayed in a Desert room that was extremely clean and well decorated. When we came back from dinner, we had the waterpark to ourselves for a couple hours because everyone else was at dinner.

Then we took a break for an early dinner at one of the many restaurants nearby. We brought a cooler full of snacks and breakfast foods so that we wouldn't have to buy breakfast or lunch there. However, I can say that I thought Kalahari was a wonderful family getaway, and for $275 including all taxes and fees, I found it to be a great value for five people. We have never been to Great Wolf, so I can't speak to which is better.
