What makes Zora’s Sojourn Unique?

Step into history and stay where a legend once lived. Zora’s Sojourn offers short-term lodging accommodations inside a beautifully renovated historical cultural landmark—the very building where world renowned author, educator, and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston lived in 1942 and penned portions of her iconic memoir, Dust Tracks on a Road.

This one-of-a-kind property, honored with a State of Florida and St. Johns County sponsored historical marker, allows guests to experience history firsthand while enjoying modern comforts and elegant designs.

What truly sets Zora’s Sojourn apart is its vision with a purpose—every stay directly supports the community. A portion of the proceeds supports Phoenix Rising Network Inc., a local nonprofit organization focused on art and cultural literacy, and economic advancement for individuals in the community.

Discover this hidden gem of St. Augustine where history, hospitality and heart come together.
