We visited the indoor water park when the weather was 40 F! Kalahari Resort made my dream come true! I could enjoy the water park without freezing my butt lol It was a great experience, and I really love it!
The lobby of Kalahari impressed me, it made me feel like in Kalahari Africa.
The resort is at the North West of Madison around 1 hour drive.
Besides the indoor water park, the resort also has arcade, bowling, mini golf, escape room, spa, and fine dining, bar. It has everything you can think of for resorts.
If you like arts, you can pay attention to the picture, sculptures in the resorts, they are amazing.
Generally speaking, my experience is good excerpt the hotel itself is bit old, and the resort is a little short staffed. Our room was finally ready after 4PM, and it was extremely warm all the time even we turned on the A.C and open the window (It was 40F outside).Well, at this price $380 per night, I definitely deserve to check in on time. I feel maybe staying in other hotels and only going to the indoor water park is a better option.
We stayed one night at the resort so we can access the water park all day from 10 AM to 9PM. I was hoping the water park will be less popular after 7, but it is as popular as anytime. I spent most of my time on flow rider. See the video of me falling lol I love the water park, it was so fun! The lazy river, wave pool, water slides are nice too!

For the restaurant, they have a fancy steak house: double cut. It is a very nice restaurant. I did not try this restaurant, we went to the Mongolian grill restaurant outside the resort instead. We all like the Mongolian restaurant, and it is all you can eat style. So everyone is able to find something they like.
For the Kalahari Resort, I also could not find any cash back or discounts, on Expedia or Rakuten. The only thing I can think of is to use the credit card that gives extra points for travel/hotel. Usually, you can book through Expedia to earn the points and through Rakuten to earn 6% cash back. For the credit card, I would recommend Chase Sapphire Preferred, it gives you 2X points for travel, 5X if you book through Chase Portal. Besides, it has not foreign transaction fee, so it is perfect for traveling and dinning.
If you have not have any of these accounts to save you money, I highly recommend you register one!
The below is my referral link so we both receive referral bonus:
Use my link, you will get 60,000 points after you spend $4,000 in first 3 months, that's worth $750.
Use my Rakuten link and you can get $40 if spend $40 and cash bask on any partner website, e.g., Macys, Expedia, Target, in first 90days. Not sure when the promotion will end, so register while it last :)
You will get $30 off booking hotels through Expedia.
