NEW Kalahari Hotel Check-In
In order to ensure a successful check-in at the Kalahari, there is
now a dedicated team that approves completed Letters of Authorization
forms, Tax Exemption forms with completed WI S211, and Purchase orders to
ensure validity prior to attachment to the reservations before
check-in. All forms should be submitted no later than 7 days in advance of your stay to Kalahari at [email protected]
or fax them to 608-254-6116. Failure to follow this procedure may
result in full room and tax charges to the attendees on their personal
cards; since the Front Desk will not accept these forms at check-in. If
you have any questions at all, visit the general policy page for the
resort, which explains the full policies in detail.
