Sojourn expands to Outer Banks with Salt Coast Hosts acquisition

Salt Coast Hosts is a family-owned STR company, providing vacation rental properties to guests visiting the Outer Banks. 

The acquisition of Salt Coast Hosts will expand Sojourn’s footprint into Outer Banks, a previously untapped market for the company.

Dunniela Kaufman, co-founder and CEO of Sojourn, said: “This partnership is about more than growth – it’s about resonance. Salt Coast brings a legacy of trust and care that perfectly complements Sojourn’s approach. Sojourn is not looking at growth for growth’s sake. We are thoughtfully expanding by looking for partnerships that reinforce our values and brand.”
