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 the Canary Islands, the air is mild all year, but the Atlantic stays cool: a heated pool makes all the difference. Here are the 3 apartments I've selected in the Canary Islands, all rated at least 8/10; I particularly recommend Beautiful Deluxe - large sunny Terrace, Heated Pool, Monte Rojo Oceanview apartment with heated pool and Grande piscine chauffée près de tout (Big Heated Pool).
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 pool. Accommodation with access to a large pool heated in winter, according to the listing.

Guide's tip. Get the heating dates confirmed.
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 top-rated is Beautiful Deluxe - large sunny Terrace, Heated Pool (Apartment · Airbnb), with 4.82/5 (68 reviews · Airbnb). Next come Monte Rojo Oceanview apartment with heated pool (4.82/5) and Grande piscine chauffée près de tout (Big Heated Pool) (4.81/5).
Yes at Beautiful Deluxe - large sunny Terrace, Heated Pool and Monte Rojo Oceanview apartment with heated pool: the pool is advertised as heated all year round. At Grande piscine chauffée près de tout (Big Heated Pool), heating is seasonal (heated in winter). Either way, ask for the heating dates before you book.
None of the places selected in the Canary Islands 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.
