Quick Verdict: Casa Marina Key West vs Havana Cabana at Key West

When Casa Marina Key West wins: choose Casa Marina if you want direct beach access, oceanfront pools, a full-service spa (Spa al Maré), and a historic, landmark setting a short walk toward Old Town and Duval Street.

When Havana Cabana at Key West wins: pick Havana Cabana if you prefer a Cuban-inspired, resort-style hotel with a single large pool and a strong on-property social scene in New Town, plus convenient self-parking and lower distance to the north-side beaches and services.

Bottom line: Casa Marina is the pick for beach access, oceanfront dining, and a resort/spa-focused Key West experience; Havana Cabana is a solid non-beach, design-forward alternative focused on pooltime and value in New Town.

  • Floridita Food Truck serves guests on-site; a snack bar/deli is available for casual bites.
  • Poolside bar and one main bar/lounge provide basic cocktail and bar service.
  • Cooked-to-order breakfast is available for a surcharge.

Pools, beach, and the signature amenity

Casa Marina Key West – Pools, beach, and the signature amenity

Casa Marina’s signature amenity is its private beach plus two refurbished oceanfront pools (one adults-only, one family).

  • Two oceanfront pools were recently refurbished; family pool max depth 4 ft 6 in and one pool is adults-only.
  • Beach facilities include chaises, umbrellas, towels, cabanas/daybeds, and on-site watersports launch.
  • Poolside cabana and daybed rentals are available with food and beverage service.

If beach and oceanfront pool time are priorities, Casa Marina delivers both in a single resort setting.

Havana Cabana at Key West – Pools, beach, and the signature amenity

Havana Cabana’s main draw is its large outdoor pool and social pool atmosphere rather than beach access.

  • One outdoor pool with pool sun loungers, a poolside bar, and a hot tub.
  • Pool scene is central to the hotel’s guest experience; the property lists poolside bar service and snack options.
  • No private beachfront or on-site oceanfront pools are listed in the supplier data.

  • Fitness center is one of the largest in Key West and includes Peloton bikes and group classes; some classes are included in resort fee.
  • Evening options include The Canary Room for cocktails and live or curated nightlife on property; the resort hosts events and weddings.

Casa Marina is better for travelers who want a full spa and class schedule alongside evening cocktail options.

Havana Cabana at Key West – Wellness & nightlife

  • Listing highlights complimentary use of a nearby fitness center and on-site bicycle rentals for active exploration.
  • An outdoor hot tub is available in addition to the pool.
  • Evening offerings center on the bar/lounge and poolside social areas rather than a full spa or formal nightlife program.
