Havana Cabana

Key West, Florida Keys

Star 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. And the largest pool in Key West comes complete with a Cuban-style pool bar serving suitably tropical cocktails alongside a bit of live music to get you in that holiday mood.

Breakfast was really good from the food truck and it was nice sitting in the covered area. Also the shuttle service was a good option for round trips to down town. We would definitely go back. For ideas on want to do and places to go, you need to see Miki Cruz at the concierge desk. She is the one to talk to if you have any questions or need recommendations for Key West. I recommend to rent a scooter or golf cart so you can ride around the island. Miki can arrange that for you. Read less

David greeted us when we arrived. He was so nice! We were celebrating our anniversary. David upgraded our room and brought us a bouquet of balloons. Our room had a beautiful view of the pool. Our room was clean and very comfortable! The sunsets from the front of the hotel were stunning! Fantastic stay!

Loved our entire stay here. Everyone was so friendly and the culture was awesome. David at the front desk was the best, he was very accommodating and made our stay the best.

This hotel booked my friend and I in a room over the laundry room, which is very warm. There is no exhaust fan in the bathroom and only a small AC by the front window. We immediately let the front desk know this was not going to work with the Key West heat. They called maintenance who said it was just the location of the room and there wasn’t anything they could do but that the front desk would get back to us. The front desk did not get back to us and when we returned from going downtown, we asked about the status and were told there were no other queen rooms available so there is nothing they can do. Continuously being sweaty and trying to sleep in heat is not what I envisioned in this trip. Pathetic and they offer zero solutions. Don’t stay here. Read less
