Elevating Meetings with Sustainability and Wellness at Kalahari Resorts & Conventions

By: Stephani Bann | May 14, 2025

In 2025, meeting planners are prioritizing sustainability and attendee well-being more than ever. Kalahari Resorts & Conventions is at the forefront, seamlessly integrating eco-friendly practices and wellness initiatives into the event experience.

Sustainable Meeting Practices

Kalahari's commitment to the environment is demonstrated by its impactful green initiatives. The resort conserves 2.46 million gallons of water annually through low-flow showerheads and uses an “AquaRecycle” system that reclaims over 26 million gallons of laundry water each year. Energy-efficient lighting, motion-sensor lights in public areas, and a comprehensive recycling program further contribute to a lower environmental footprint - all without sacrificing guest comfort or event quality.

Wellness-Centered Experiences

Recognizing the importance of balance, Kalahari incorporates wellness throughout its convention offerings. Attendees can recharge at the full-service spa, host a group yoga session on one of our River Ballroom Patio, or enjoy chef-crafted healthy menu options. Quiet spaces, walking paths, and hydration stations offer moments of calm between sessions, helping guests stay refreshed and focused.

By aligning with the values of today’s socially conscious attendees, Kalahari Resorts & Conventions offers more than a meeting location - it delivers a purpose-driven experience. For planners seeking to host impactful, meaningful events, the Pocono Mountains location is ready to support every step of the way.
