Havana Cabana

Key West, Florida Keys

Virgin rating

The hotel

Life here couldn’t be simpler: swim, sunbathe, sip poolside cocktails, swim again. Havana Cabana Key West is a place to escape it all, although the fabulous concierge service will happily help arrange trips out to experience the rest of island life – whether it’s golf, beaches, or a bar crawl – if doing nothing does nothing for you. The unique spirit of Cuba is reflected at Havana Cabana, from the dining to the decor. The largest freshwater pool in Key West comes complete with a rock waterfall, a hot tub, and a Cuban-style pool bar serving suitably tropical cocktails.

I love Havana Cabana!! It's been two weeks since we had the pleasure to stay in this incredible resort. First, I loved it because it wasn't a huge facility to get lost in. The pool was right outside our door. The Floridia Food truck was a few steps away as was the bar. In the lobby had a great selection of souvenirs and CIGARS!! The staff was amazinghly friendly, especially two young gentlemen working the front desk on Friday eveing. The room was spacious with a separate restroom that has ample room. As far as locationl, you can get anywhere on the island within 10 minutes or so. I can't wait to go back to Key West and Havana Cabana. It was a great value for me because my daughter paid for it! I thought the beds were comforatable but my wife and daughter disagreed. But they didn't sleep on a pull out sofa bed the night before in Ft. Lauderdale. Serouasly, we all loved Havana Cabana!

The grounds were clean and the pool was beautiful natural layout. Great food too, we ordered the Cesar salad, chicken and steak quesadillas and they were so good. The bartender was kind and had complimentary smoothies at noon that were a nice treat to beat the summer heat. Highly recommend for tourists or locals looking for a staycation! Read less

The rooms are clean and tidy but not modern, having a Cuban style about them. We enjoyed the pool area, which was nice and relaxed, with a pool bar area. The reception is uniquely styled and we enjoyed the complementary shuttle service into Old Town.

The floors were filthy! The air conditioning was extremely noisy and I never did find an ice machine. The pool area was ok. They do not have an elevator. We asked for the floor to be cleaned and it was a little better but still not as clean as it should have been.
