Kalahari Poconos Restaurants, Breakfast and Group Dining

The resort offers several sit-down restaurants as well as faster dining options and food outlets serving the waterpark and hotel. Prices, reservation availability and operating hours vary by venue.

Arcade, Spa, Outdoor Activities and Kalahari Events

Selected fall and holiday 2026 resort events

These are resort activities rather than a complete public convention calendar. Professional conferences may be private or hosted by third-party organizations.

Kalahari Poconos Waterpark Rules, Lockers and Accessibility

Accessible visit planning

Guests needing accessible accommodations should confirm their specific room features, route between the convention halls and guestrooms, waterpark access requirements and any available adaptive facilities directly with resort staff before booking.

Day Pass vs Overnight Stay vs Conference Visit

Best value decision: If your main purpose is the waterpark, compare a date-specific day pass with an overnight rate for the same family size. If you’re visiting only for meetings, ask your organizer which meals, hotel services and attractions are included in the conference package.
