Spring training

Question

Can anyone recommend an area or specific hotel that is relatively close to the CACTI baseball spring training fields?

Thanks

Answer

If you’re planning to attend spring training games at the CACTI (Central Atlantic Cactus Training Initiative) fields near West Palm Beach, staying nearby is convenient for early morning games and minimizing drive time. The area around West Palm Beach and Palm Beach Gardens offers several lodging options that are within a 10–20 minute drive of most spring training facilities.

Neighborhood recommendations:

Palm Beach Gardens: Close to many spring training fields, shopping, and restaurants. Safe area with easy highway access.
West Palm Beach (northern area near PGA Blvd or Northlake Blvd): Provides reasonable access to CACTI fields, plus plenty of dining options and standard hotels.
Jupiter area: Slightly farther north, but still convenient if you’re combining a beach stay or sightseeing in Palm Beach County.

Hotel recommendations:

Marriott PGA National Resort & Spa (Palm Beach Gardens): Upscale resort, very close to training fields, with pools and restaurants on-site.
Hilton Garden Inn Palm Beach Gardens: Comfortable, reliable, mid-range option, convenient to CACTI fields and highway access.
Residence Inn by Marriott West Palm Beach: Good for longer stays, kitchen facilities, family-friendly, and about 10–15 minutes from fields.
Hampton Inn & Suites West Palm Beach–PGA Blvd: Budget-friendly, includes breakfast, and located very close to the training areas.

Most of these hotels also have easy access to restaurants and shopping areas, which can be convenient if you want to relax after a morning or afternoon game. If your schedule allows, staying in Palm Beach Gardens is the sweet spot for convenience and amenities.

Tip: Book early, especially for spring training season, as hotels near the fields fill up quickly in February and March.
