With an apartment, the pool is often shared with the residence, sometimes private on the terrace. Either way, I only list the ones where the water is heated. In Alpe d'Huez and Les Deux Alpes, indoor pools are found in hotel spas and in a few residences in the Oisans. For now, only one place of this type meets my criteria in Alpe d'Huez and Les Deux Alpes: CGH Résidences & Spas Le Cristal de l'Alpe.
Each city has its own selection, with a page for each type of accommodation.

The pool. Indoor pool advertised as heated, in the Ô des Cimes spa.
I haven't yet found guest reviews that mention the water temperature.
Guide's tip. Ask whether spa access is included in the rental.
These places don't have a confirmed heated pool, but they do have a hot tub: the water is hot all year round. A good way to relax in the warm.
These places were suggested to us directly by their owners. The heated pool is declared by them; they don't yet have enough guest reviews to join the selection.
In my selection, the only place selected is CGH Résidences & Spas Le Cristal de l'Alpe (Residence · apartments), with 8.5/10 (39 reviews · Booking.com).
None of the places selected in Alpe d'Huez and Les Deux Alpes clearly advertises a pool heated all year round. CGH Résidences & Spas Le Cristal de l'Alpe has an indoor pool, sheltered from the wind. Either way, ask for the heating dates before you book.
None of the places selected in Alpe d'Huez and Les Deux Alpes gives a precise temperature. Ask the property before booking, especially out of season.
The word "heated" on a booking page isn't enough. Every place must have a rating of at least 8/10 (or 4/5) and carries one of these four levels.
Guests mention the heated water in their reviews, with the season when they say so.
A journalist or guide who stayed there describes the heated pool.
The hotel or the platform says so, but I haven't yet found a review that confirms it.
Heating isn't specified, but the water is sheltered from the wind and cold air. Ask for the temperature before you book.
I left these out because guests report water colder than advertised, or because no heating or indoor pool is mentioned.
