Hilton Daytona Beach - Meeting Guests Needs

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Year 2008) – With the largest meeting facility of any Hilton property on Florida’s east coast, the Hilton Daytona Beach is a big hit with groups looking for the best of beachfront locations. Behind its familiar cascading facade along the area’s only traffic-free stretch of sand, the Hilton holds 60,000 square feet of flexible indoor and outdoor meeting space. Divided between 32 separate functional meeting rooms, the space easily accommodates groups from 20 to 2,000, with each guest enjoying the unparalleled accommodations, amenities, service and cuisine that characterize the Hilton Daytona Beach.

Each of the resort’s separate meeting spaces reflects a warm, seaside ambiance. The 18,000-square-foot Coquina Ballroom is divisible into eight sections and accommodates up to 2,000 guests. For social functions, the 9,000-square-foot oceanfront pre-convene space offers splendid seaside views. Perfect for breakout sessions and smaller gatherings, the 8,667-square-foot Grand Ballroom, also divisible into eight sections, accommodates up to 1,000 guests. Four executive board rooms are available for staff meetings, and large indoor and outdoor pre-convene areas serve as ideal spaces for exhibitions and trade shows.

The resort’s professional meeting staff, award-winning banquet and catering staff and in-house audio-visual department make every event memorable. The resort is conveniently located directly across from the Ocean Center Convention Center offering over 60,000 square feet of meeting and exhibit space. Currently undergoing a $76 million expansion, the Ocean Center will triple in size this year, reaching more than 450,000 square feet of total space.

After day-long meetings, guests can be revived at the Spa at the Hilton Daytona Beach, offering pampering treatments from the Pevonia Botanica® skincare line. Featuring four deluxe treatment rooms equipped with the latest spa technology, the Spa at the Hilton is ideally located adjacent to the South Tower pool, offering a refreshing dip to end the day.
