Quick Verdict: Havana Cabana at Key West vs Ocean Key Resort & Spa

Havana Cabana offers Cuban-inspired rooms and several premium options designed for families and groups.

  • 106 rooms with hand-painted murals and Cuban accents

Pools & signature amenity: the pool scene vs harborfront access

Havana Cabana at Key West – Pools & signature amenity

Havana Cabana’s headline amenity is its large heated pool—the largest in Key West—plus poolside bars and events.

  • Heated pool open 10 AM–11 PM with chaise lounges and poolside service
  • Poolside Mojitos Bar and pool snack/service offerings
  • Day passes available for non-hotel guests

If a big resort-style pool is your priority, Havana Cabana’s pool area is the main draw.

Ocean Key Resort & Spa – Pools & signature amenity

  • Outdoor and indoor swimming pool options and hot tub listed
  • Direct access to harborfront views and nearby water-sport operators
  • Poolside bar and waterfront terraces for sunset viewing

Ocean Key’s value is the waterfront setting and easy access to Old Town’s sunset scene rather than a single large pool.

  • No on-site fitness center; complimentary transport to a nearby fitness facility

Ocean Key includes an on-site spa and is steps from Old Town nightlife.

  • Spa and massage services listed among amenities
  • Fitness center and yoga spaces listed
  • Immediate access to Duval Street bars, restaurants, and Mallory Square sunset events

Ocean Key is a better pick for spa treatments and being in the center of Old Town’s evening activity.
