Located four miles south of Thomasville, Georgia and 30 minutes north of Tallahassee, Florida on U.S. Highway 319 South, Melhana Plantation offers a relaxing setting, effectively eliminating the frantic atmosphere that exists in many conference facilities. Majestic oaks and fragrant magnolias line its entrance and stand sentinel to the elegance of this 19th century plantation, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Here the ambiance of a gracious plantation resort is juxtaposed with the sterility of most traditional meeting sites. A conference coordinator and conscientious staff are delighted to assist businesses with arranging customized meetings, retreats and conferences tailored to specific needs. Located in the former plantation garages are meeting spaces that can accommodate one large group of 100 theater-style, or up to 80 people in three divided rooms.
Audiovisual equipment is available by request.
Sessions also may be held in such distinctive settings as the Poolhouse, perfect for an informal brainstorming session or working lunch. Festive conference finale events and special sessions also can be coordinated outdoors under the live oaks, in elaborate tent canopies. Melhana Plantation's indoor venues, including three conference rooms, the Poolhouse, and the Showboat can accommodate a total of four hundred people. Outdoor venues can accommodate as many as six hundred. Meetings will receive undivided, personal attention from Melhana Plantation's conference and food and beverage staff.
