Our second largest event venue accommodates up to 100 and offers many of the same perks that our Grand Ballroom does, such as big windows that peer eastward and access to an outdoor patio and terrace. Thanks to plenty of countertop space, Dawn is ideal for coffee breaks and catered events from our two onsite restaurants and bars.
Enter into a tasteful prefunction space with a full bar and seating. Through the doors, discover a long ballroom with windows that span the length of the venue, leading to the East Terrace. On the outdoor patio, planters and plush chairs, including hanging chaise loungers, overlook the Indian River from 11 floors up. New Horizons is not only one of the finest event venues at Hotel Melby, but one of the finest in all of Melbourne, Florida, comfortably accommodating up to 280 guests.
If you’re looking for a mid-sized meeting space, Perseverance is our aptly named event venue that will move you forward toward success.

Sojourner Ballroom is roughly the same size as our Exploration Ballroom and equally as perfect for small- to mid-sized gatherings. Host breakouts, board meetings, training sessions, corporate milestones, and parties of up to 72 coworkers in a theater layout or 50 for luncheons and banquets.
