To celebrate National Plan for Vacation Day, Kalahari partnered with Olympic gold medalist, entrepreneur, and mom Shawn Johnson East to encourage families to stop waiting for “someday” and start planning the getaway they’ve been talking about. Shawn and her family recently experienced Kalahari firsthand, enjoying a fun-filled stay packed with waterpark adventures, family-friendly dining, and memorable moments together.

“Life gets busy fast, and National Plan for Vacation Day serves as a great reminder that families deserve time away to reconnect,” said Johnson East. “What I love about Kalahari is that it really has a little bit of everything – great dining, the waterpark, the adventure park, and spacious, comfortable suites that make it easy to unwind. It’s the kind of place where every person in the family finds their favorite thing.”

The National Plan for Vacation Day promotion is available for new online reservations only using promo code VACAY, with savings that apply across Kalahari properties, including exciting new additions that give families even more to look forward to. Guests can take advantage of the offer on the upcoming Kalahari Resort in Virginia, scheduled to open in late 2026, as well as plan ahead for the all-new Kalahari Treehouse Adventures in Wisconsin Dells, with bookings for spring 2026 and beyond - creating even more ways for families to customize their next escape.

“Kalahari has always been about making it easy for families to get away together,” said Travis Nelson, President of Kalahari Resorts & Conventions. “Whether families are booking a weekend getaway or looking ahead to something new on the horizon, this one-day offer makes it easier than ever to lock in time together and start counting down to their next adventure.”

The promotion is valid for a limited time only and is subject to availability. For more information or to book, visit KalahariResorts.com.
