An apartment with a heated pool gives you the freedom of a rental with the pleasure of a comfortable swim. In Alsace and Lorraine, warm water is mostly found in hotel spas and gîtes with indoor pools, from the wine route to the Vosges lakes. Here are the 8 apartments I've selected in Alsace and Lorraine, all rated at least 8/10; I particularly recommend Le 128, Studio avec piscine chauffée près de Colmar and Appartement spa, piscine intérieure chauffée.
Each city has its own selection, with a page for each type of accommodation.
Places are ranked from highest to lowest rated. The yellow bubble shows the advertised water temperature, when it's known.

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.
