When Kalahari Resorts & Conventions open their new Poconos resort this summer, it will be the largest indoor waterpark in the country. And while bigger is nice, they don’t plan to stop there. The resort is already working on the second phase of construction, which they say will make it “the best indoor waterpark in the world.” Bigger and better is a nice combination!

Here’s some of what the new resort will have to offer:

• Nearly 1,000 guest rooms containing one-, two- and three-bedroom suites
• America’s Largest Indoor water park (a true 200,000 sq. ft.)
• Expanded outdoor waterpark
• 100,000 sq. ft. convention center
• 30,000 sq. ft. family entertainment center
• Three full-service signature dining experiences
• Spa Kalahari & Salon
• 6,000 sq. ft. of retail space 

In addition to all that fun, the new resort will bring something else great to the Poconos: jobs! The resort expects to create more than 1,000 jobs in the area.

Some of that is still in the future, reservations are being accepted right now for this years opening, where visitors will find: 

• 457 guest rooms containing one-, two- and three-bedroom suites
• Pennsylvania’s largest indoor waterpark (100,000 sq. ft.)
• Outdoor waterpark, which includes a huge outdoor pool, a large sundeck for relaxing, indoor/outdoor whirlpools and a swim-up bar
• 30,000 sq. ft. family entertainment center, which will include plenty of dry activities such as mini-bowling, cutting-edge arcade games, a 5-D theater, black light mini golf and more
• Three full-service signature dining experiences
• Spa Kalahari & Salon
• 100,000 sq. ft. convention center
• 6,000 sq. ft. of retail space and more 

If you’re looking for fun for kids (or grandkids) in the Poconos this summer, you’ll want to check out the new Poconos, PA Resort at 250 Kalahari Blvd., Pocono Manor, PA 18349. It’s bigger, better, and wetter than any water park you’ve ever seen!
