Start the Party Poolside at Havana Cabana

Why wait until nighttime to turn up the music?

Every Friday and Saturday from noon to 4pm, Havana Cabana hosts DJ pool parties around Key West’s largest pool. Add tropical drinks, palm trees and plenty of sunshine, and you have a pretty good warm-up for whatever comes next.

Pool party first. Key West nightlife next.

 

Sunset + Live Cuban Music at Flama Cabana

You do not have to leave Havana Cabana to find a little nightlife.

At Flama Cabana, rum cocktails, shareable tapas and live Cuban music meet Gulf-facing sunset views in a waterfront lounge made for easing into the evening.

Stay for another song, another round or both.

 

Bars + Late Nights on Duval Street

You cannot talk about Key West night life without Duval Street.

The heart of Old Town is packed with open-air bars, live music and plenty of places to keep the night moving. Start somewhere classic like Sloppy Joe’s, find a spot with DJs and dancing, or simply follow the music.

No complicated plan required.

Follow the Live Music

Looking for restaurants with live music in Key West or somewhere to grab a drink while a band plays? You will not have to search far.

Try Green Parrot for a longtime local favorite, Schooner Wharf Bar for music by the waterfront or Hank’s Hair of the Dog Saloon for food, drinks and an outdoor soundtrack.

Check what is playing, then stay for another song.

Stay Where the Vibe Starts

Havana Cabana gives you the best of both sides of Key West.

Start the day at the pool, or join the Friday and Saturday DJ pool party, then explore the island your way with complimentary shuttle service or by renting a Vespa or bike from the resort. When you are ready to wind down, head to Flama Cabana for live Cuban music and cocktails. And when Old Town calls, the resort shuttle makes it easy to reach Duval Street and beyond.

Stay out for dinner, live music or a few more rounds, then return to your own colorful Cuban-inspired escape.

And the next morning?

The pool is waiting.
