The Astros spring training location is CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches, 5444 Haverhill Road, West Palm Beach, Florida 33407, according to the team’s own ballpark page. The Washington Nationals share the complex. Here’s the detail to plan around: the ballpark is cashless, and that includes every parking lot. So the driver needs a credit card before the car ever turns onto Haverhill Road.
Read the lot rules before you book the hotel and the ride. Groups that do it the other way can arrive with the wrong vehicle for the lot, or with no credit card for a lot that takes nothing else. Settle the arrival first. A family or small group in one car should drive to General Parking with a credit card on the driver. A group moving together by bus or RV should plan on the General Parking area through the main entrance on Haverhill Road. A traveler who needs accessible parking should carry the applicable permit and use that same main entrance.
CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches Is the Astros’ Spring Training Home
The Astros spring training location is a single campus with room for two clubs. According to the Astros’ ballpark page, the 160-acre CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches complex is the spring training and player development home of the Houston Astros and the Washington Nationals. Its centerpiece is a fan-friendly 8,000-seat stadium, and the page lists six practice fields per team. The address is 5444 Haverhill Road, West Palm Beach, Florida 33407.
Major League Vacations’ Astros spring training page lists that same address and names Palm Beach International as the typical gateway. It lists both clubs at the ballpark too. If you’re flying in, that gateway is where the ground transport plan should start.
Three Roads Lead to Haverhill Road
The team’s page gives three driving approaches, and all three end on Haverhill Road. Here they are in plain words.
- From I-95 north: exit onto 45th Street, travel west, then turn left onto Haverhill Road.
- From I-95 south: exit at either Okeechobee Blvd or 45th Street. From Okeechobee Blvd, travel west to Haverhill Road and turn right. From 45th Street, travel west to Haverhill Road and turn left.
- From Florida’s Turnpike: exit onto Okeechobee Blvd, then travel east to Haverhill Road and turn left.
Drivers coming off I-95 head west to Haverhill Road. Drivers off Florida’s Turnpike head east. On game days, the page says all vehicles may park in one of two grass parking areas, and that the north entrance on Haverhill Road is right-out only.
As a general rule, the road your group already plans to be on decides which approach fits. Check the route in your own map before you drive, and read the ballpark page again before the trip, because the team can change these details without notice.
Compare the Three Arrivals
Every lot rule in the table comes from the team’s ballpark page. Compare the three arrivals against your group before anyone books a hotel or a ride.
| How you arrive | Where the team’s page sends you | Settle this first |
|---|---|---|
| A car to General Parking. | General Parking is in Lot F, which can be accessed from Haverhill Road or Military Trail. The page gives 5100 N Haverhill Rd. West Palm Beach, FL 33407 as the address for the lot. | A credit card for the driver. |
| A bus or RV. | RV and bus parking is in the General Parking area. The entrance is at the facility’s main entrance off Haverhill Road. | The entrance, the credit card and a drop-off plan for the group. |
| An accessible arrival. | ADA parking is available with the applicable permits and enters through the facility’s main entrance on Haverhill Road, first come first served. ADA transportation runs from the parking lots to the main entry, with a pickup at Tent A on the north side of Lot A off Haverhill Road. For disabled parking or drop-off, the page says to proceed toward the stadium along Haverhill Road. | The parking permit. |
The page also says there’s no valet parking. Whoever drives, parks.
Cashless Parking Changes What the Driver Carries
The team’s page says CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches is a cashless facility, including in all parking lots. It also says credit card payment is the only form of payment accepted in parking lots. Cash won’t get a car onto the grass.
A group that splits into two or three cars should make sure every driver carries a credit card, not just the person who booked the trip. With no valet, nobody hands off the keys at the curb. Each car parks itself, so each car needs its own way to pay.
Pick the Arrival That Fits Your Group
Choose the car if you’re a family or small group traveling in one vehicle. The page sends you to General Parking in Lot F, reached from Haverhill Road or Military Trail, and the credit card becomes the driver’s job. As a general rule, it’s the simplest of the three to plan.
Choose the bus or RV if the group wants to arrive together. The page puts RV and bus parking in the General Parking area, entered at the facility’s main entrance off Haverhill Road. Sort out who drives, who pays and where the group steps off before the trip, not at the entrance.
Choose the accessible arrival if someone in the group needs ADA parking. The page says it’s available with the applicable permits through the facility’s main entrance on Haverhill Road, first come first served. Have the permit ready before you leave.
Major League Vacations’ Astros spring training page says Houston Astros spring training packages can be paired with airport transportation and game-day transfers, and that for groups it can coordinate room blocks, group tickets, flights and local transportation under one spring training plan. The same page asks how close to the ballpark you want to stay. That’s the question your arrival plan answers.
What to Confirm Before You Go
The team’s page leaves some details open. The Astros’ ballpark page doesn’t post gate times, walking times, ride times or parking prices, and its parking map is an image rather than a written layout. So study that map yourself before the trip.
Pull the page up again close to the trip, and ask the team directly about anything it leaves open. Entrances, lot assignments and transportation details can change without notice. Confirming beats assuming.
How the Astros Trip Fits a Longer Stay
Major League Vacations’ Astros spring training page says the Miami Marlins train nearby in Jupiter, which makes two-team days possible. The same page says it matches hotel location to your priorities: ballpark access, airport convenience, restaurants, beach or golf time and overall trip pace. Those priorities pull against each other, so rank them before you compare hotels.
Fans stacking more than one ballpark into the trip can also read spring training maps and schedules.
Groups weighing how early to commit can read what to lock in before schedules are public.
Major League Vacations’ page also says extras can be added through custom sports travel packages: related spring training games, extra hotel nights, flights, transfers, rental car planning and custom add-ons. Rental car planning matters for this decision, because the group that drives itself is the group that needs a credit card at the lot.
