Pirate Escape Heated Pool, Dock & 2 Golf Carts
🧭 **Welcome to The Gilded Compass — A Pirate’s Paradise in Coastal Luxury**
Final pictures coming after January 1st
Chart your course for indulgence at *The Gilded Compass*, a mythic 5-bedroom, 4-bath waterfront estate where pirate legends meet modern elegance. Nestled along the shimmering shores of Indian Rocks Beach, this retreat offers everything a captain (or crew) could dream of — from deep water dockage for your vessel to a heated pool fit for mermaids and marauders alike.
Inside, each of the five bedrooms is a private haven, outfitted with plush king beds and smart TVs. Two master suites open directly to the sea, with sliding glass doors that let the ocean breeze drift in like a whispered legend. The bunk room, with queen-over-queen beds, is perfect for young buccaneers or extra mates.
Outside, the adventure continues:
- 🏖️ **Heated pool** with loungers for sun-soaked relaxation
- ⚓ **Deep water dock** for boating, fishing, or sunset toasts
- 🛺 **Two 6-seat golf carts** to cruise the island in style
- 🛶 **6 kayaks + 4 paddle boards** for exploring hidden coves
- 🍽️ **Outdoor dining and lounging** under swaying palms
Whether you’re chasing treasure, hosting a moonlit feast, or simply soaking in the salt-kissed air, *The Gilded Compass* offers a rare blend of storybook charm and high-end comfort. From scroll-tied welcome notes to rooms named for captains and sirens, every detail is designed to enchant.
Your voyage begins here — where luxury meets legend, and every sunset feels like a secret worth keeping. 🌅🗺️

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Tom Hagen
Why they chose this property
Set on a beautiful Intracoastal cove, The Gilded Compass offers a rare blend of tranquility and adventure. Watch dolphins glide past the dock, toast the sunset over shimmering waters, or launch straight into the sea with kayaks and paddle boards for the whole crew. Back on land, the backyard is pure fun — a heated pool, outdoor dining under palms, and space for laughter. It’s a private paradise where every day feels like treasure. ⚓
What makes this property unique
At The Gilded Compass, adventure is built in. Your entire crew can ride together to the beach in style with two six‑seat golf carts — no one left behind on this voyage. And when it’s time to set sail, we provide four single kayaks, two tandem kayaks and four hard shell paddle boards, enough for all ten guests to explore the coves and currents side by side. Whether cruising the island or paddling the sea, every guest shares in the fun. ⚓
