It costs me $15 to get in Castaway Bay and I don't remember what Kalahari was. Maybe I'll check it out sometime but since I spend most of my time in the hot tub area and we only do half a day at waterparks anyway I'll stick with the $15 park for now. I'm sure I'm getting what I pay for but what I'm paying for is really all I need for the most part.
It was $88 per person last time we went to Kalahari, plus $10 for a locker when we decided we wanted to slides and not worry about our stuff on a chair, and about $12 a drink, per person (plus tip).
Then, we ate dinner at the restaurant there, so it's an expensive day, but it's worth it to feel like you're on vacation.
When staying overnight, waterpark access is paid for by way of an additional $30/person/day "resort fee".
We've done a few multi-night stays there over the years, and always had a good time. As Josh said it's not inexpensive, but it's a relatively inexpensive way to get a resort-feel vacation.
