Pasadena Yacht & Country Club homes for sale cover a wider spread than most buyers expect, from bay view condos around $300,000 inside the gates to custom waterfront estates reaching about $3.5 million. The community itself is a guard-gated enclave in Gulfport wrapped around a private club with an 18-hole golf course and an 82-slip deep water marina, roughly 15 to 20 minutes from downtown St. Petersburg and the Gulf beaches. This guide covers what homes actually sold for over the past year, how the sections differ, how club membership and slip ownership work, and the flood and condo questions to settle before you write an offer.

Quick Facts About Pasadena Yacht & Country Club
A guard-gated community in Gulfport, FL 33707 with 24-hour security, built around a private club established in 1924, sitting between downtown St. Petersburg and St. Pete Beach.
Median sale price of $590,000 across the wider PYCC area over the last 12 months, with the single-family median at $970,000 and an average of $383 per square foot (Homes.com, September 2026).
Homes averaged 107 days on market with about 4.4 months of supply, a slower pace that gives prepared buyers real room to negotiate.
The private marina holds 82 slips for vessels from 34 to 110 feet, with Gulf access through Boca Ciega Bay and the Pass-a-Grille channel. Club membership is required to own or lease a slip.
Club membership is optional for homeowners and never included in HOA fees. Tiers run from Sport to Full Golf, and some categories carry waitlists of up to a year.
Where Pasadena Yacht & Country Club Sits
The gates are in Gulfport, on Boca Ciega Bay at the southern end of Pinellas County. That surprises people who assume a St. Petersburg address, and the confusion is understandable. Most of the community carries Gulfport addresses in the 33707 ZIP code, while several surrounding streets and subdivisions show St. Petersburg or South Pasadena mailing addresses. If you are searching online, search by community and section name rather than by city, or you will miss half the inventory.

Location is the quiet advantage here. St. Pete Beach sits less than 5 miles away, about a 15-minute drive in light traffic, and downtown St. Petersburg is under 10 miles east, roughly 20 minutes without traffic, per Homes.com. Downtown Gulfport’s waterfront restaurant and arts district is a few minutes from the gate, with the Tuesday Fresh Market and the annual GeckoFest on the calendar. Stetson University College of Law sits directly across from the Golfview condos, and St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport is about a 35-minute drive.

What Pasadena Yacht & Country Club Homes for Sale Cost in 2026
One number never tells the story in a community with 13-story condo towers and 5,000-square-foot bayfront estates behind the same gate. Over the 12 months ending September 2026, Homes.com recorded a median sale price of $590,000 across the wider PYCC area, down 4 percent year over year, on 77 sales. The single-family median came in at $970,000 at an average of $383 per square foot, and Homes.com pegs that single-family figure at nearly triple Gulfport’s citywide median and about double St. Pete’s.

By property type, condos and townhomes in and around the community generally trade between the low $200,000s and the mid $700,000s, with large end-unit townhomes crossing $1 million. Single-family homes inside the gates run from the upper $300,000s for the smallest non-waterfront houses to about $3.5 million on the water, while homes in the surrounding non-gated subdivisions range from the high $200,000s to the mid $800,000s. Even vacant land still trades occasionally; a half-acre homesite overlooking the 6th hole was listed at $424,900 in September 2026.

The pace matters as much as the price. At 107 average days on market and roughly 4.4 months of supply, this is not the frantic market of a few years ago. A home that has sat for three months is a home where an inspection request or a pricing conversation lands very differently, and sellers of the larger waterfront properties know it.

The Sections Behind the Gate, and the Ones Outside It
Inside the gates, four named sections plus the condo buildings cover most of the map. Pasadena Point Estates holds the largest homes, generally 3,000 to more than 5,000 square feet near the mouth of Boca Ciega Bay. Kipps Colony Estates mixes custom waterfront and golf-view homes with the four-story Kipps Colony condominiums, 84 units completed in 1989. Skimmer Point and Fairway Bay round out the single-family and townhome streets, and the two 13-story Pelican Bay towers, completed in 1982 and 1983 with 81 and 74 units, put 33-foot balconies over the bay. Waterfront single-family homes typically come with private docks.

Several subdivisions share the golf course setting without the guard gate, including Pasadena Golf Club Estates, Pelican Creek Village, Golfview Condominiums, Sun Ketch Townhomes and Villas del Verde. The distinction matters for more than the gate itself. Pricing, fees and rules change at the property line; parts of Pasadena Golf Club Estates, for example, offer protected sailboat water with no HOA at all, while everything inside the gates carries the mandatory master association fee.

How Club Membership Actually Works
You do not have to join the club to buy a home here. Membership is optional, it is open to non-residents, and it is never included in HOA fees, three facts that surprise a lot of first-time PYCC shoppers. Per Homes.com, the club organizes membership into tiers: Full Golf for ages 40 and up, Executive I Golf for 31 to 39, Executive II Golf for 21 to 30, and a Sport category with no age restriction that covers tennis, fitness, the pool, dining, social events, reciprocal yachting privileges and marina eligibility, with limited golf access. Some categories carry waitlists that can stretch to a year, and community residents are usually given priority.

On cost, the one recent hard number in public view is the Sport tier’s $12,500 initiation fee, cited in a 2026 slip listing; published third-party estimates for the golf categories vary too widely to be useful, so confirm current initiation fees and dues with the membership office before you build them into your budget. The club itself dates to 1924, with a course designed by Wayne Stiles and later renovated by Arnold Palmer, and Walter Hagen served as its first golf professional. Today the roughly 300-acre grounds hold three dining venues, a heated pool, tennis and pickleball courts and a fitness center, and membership carries reciprocal privileges at more than 500 clubs through the Yachting Club of America.

The Marina and Deep Water Boat Slips
The marina is the reason many buyers look here first. The club’s 82-slip basin accommodates vessels from 34 to 110 feet, with typical boats running 44 to 70 feet, and the club describes the access channel at an 8-foot controlling depth; Waterway Guide lists approach and dockside depths of 8.5 and 10.5 feet. The basin’s protection is its calling card. Local captains treat it as one of the better hurricane holes on this stretch of coast, and the route out runs through Boca Ciega Bay and the Pass-a-Grille channel to the Gulf, with Tampa Bay and the downtown St. Petersburg waterfront an easy cruise in the other direction.

Slips are dockominiums, owned or leased rather than rented night to night, and club membership is required to hold one. A 2026 Compass listing offers a useful benchmark: a 50-by-20-foot slip offered at $110,000 with a $411 monthly fee that included water, on top of the $12,500 Sport initiation. Treat every published depth and clearance as a reference rather than a guarantee, check current charts against your own draft, and budget for a marine survey as part of any purchase.

HOA Fees, Property Taxes and the Rest of the Monthly Math
Every home inside the gates pays a mandatory master association fee covering the 24-hour gate, common landscaping and road maintenance, and most sections layer a sub-association fee on top for items like exterior building maintenance and trash. Amounts vary by subdivision and billing runs monthly or quarterly, so request both budgets, not just the one the listing mentions. Club dues are always separate from both.

On taxes, Florida’s rules reward owner-occupants and reset at sale. A homesteaded primary residence gets an exemption of up to $50,000 plus the Save Our Homes cap, which limits annual growth in assessed value to no more than 3 percent, while non-homestead property caps at 10 percent. The catch for buyers is that a purchase resets assessed value to market, so a longtime owner’s current tax bill tells you almost nothing about yours. Documentary stamp tax on the deed runs $0.70 per $100 of the sale price and is customarily a seller cost in Pinellas County. For a realistic post-sale number, run the parcel through the Pinellas County Property Appraiser’s tax estimator before you write the offer.

Flood Zones, Insurance and the Condo Rules That Changed
Ask the Helene question directly, because every serious buyer here does. When Hurricane Helene pushed record storm surge into Boca Ciega Bay in September 2024, a local agent quoted by Homes.com reported that the water mostly reached the finger streets around the marina, and the rest of the community stayed dry. That squares with how varied the ground actually is: flood zone, base flood elevation and finished floor height change house to house, so pull the FEMA flood map for the specific address, ask the seller for the elevation certificate, and get flood and wind insurance quotes during the inspection period rather than after.

The median year built here is 1981, which puts FEMA’s substantial improvement rule in play for older, non-elevated homes. In a mapped flood zone, renovations generally cannot exceed half the structure’s value without triggering a requirement to bring the whole building up to current flood elevation standards, which is a big part of why you see newer elevated construction inside the gates. Verify permit history and any substantial damage determinations with the city’s floodplain office before planning a major remodel.

Condo buyers face a second layer. Florida now requires milestone structural inspections for condo buildings three stories or taller once they reach 30 years of age, repeating every 10 years, along with a structural integrity reserve study, and Pinellas County administers the program locally. The Pelican Bay towers and the Kipps Colony building fall squarely within those requirements, so ask for the milestone inspection report, the reserve study, current reserve funding and any planned special assessments before you make an offer, not during the closing scramble.

What to Check Before You Write an Offer
Five checks cover most of what goes wrong here. Confirm the flood zone, elevation certificate and insurability, along with permit history on any older home you plan to renovate. For a condo or townhome, read the milestone report, the reserve study and the assessment picture before falling in love with the view. Request both HOA budgets, master and sub, and if you want the club, ask the membership office about current fees and waitlist timing for your category. Boaters should verify slip availability, whether a purchase or a lease is on the table, the monthly fee, and whether the slip actually fits the boat’s length, beam and draft. And if schools factor into your search, confirm assignments directly with Pinellas County Schools rather than trusting a listing; nearby listings commonly show Bear Creek Elementary, Azalea Middle and Boca Ciega High, with GreatSchools ratings of 7, 3 and 4 out of 10 as of September 2026, and both zones and ratings change.

Condos and townhomes generally trade from the low $200,000s to the mid $700,000s, and waterfront estates inside the gates reach about $3.5 million.

Is Pasadena Yacht & Country Club in Gulfport or St. Petersburg?

Downtown St. Petersburg is under 10 miles east and St. Pete Beach is less than 5 miles away. Searching by community and section name finds more inventory than searching by city.

Do you need a club membership to get a boat slip at PYCC?
Yes, club membership is required to own or lease a slip in the 82-slip marina. The Sport tier, the lowest qualifying category, carried a $12,500 initiation fee per a 2026 listing, and slips accommodate vessels from 34 to 110 feet. Confirm current membership pricing and slip availability with the club before making plans around a specific boat.

Did Pasadena Yacht & Country Club flood during Hurricane Helene?
Mostly no, according to a local agent quoted by Homes.com, who reported that Helene’s surge in September 2024 primarily reached the finger streets around the marina while the rest of the community stayed dry. Flood exposure still varies parcel by parcel. Check the FEMA flood zone, request the elevation certificate and get insurance quotes early in your due diligence.

What are the HOA fees in Pasadena Yacht & Country Club?
PYCC uses a two-layer structure: a mandatory master association fee that funds the gate, common landscaping and roads, plus sub-association fees that vary by section and typically cover exterior maintenance and trash. Amounts differ meaningfully by subdivision and property type, so request both budgets for any home you are considering. Club dues are always separate.

Is Pasadena Yacht & Country Club Right for You
It fits buyers who want golf, protected deep water and a staffed gate at one address, 15 to 20 minutes from downtown St. Petersburg and the beaches, and it rewards diligence on flood, fees and building reports more than most communities in Pinellas County.
