Catalysis of the transfer of a methyl group to an acceptor molecule. Catalysis of the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to a substrate. Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + N-acetylserotonin = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine). Catalysis of the transfer of a methyl group to the oxygen atom of an acceptor molecule.
