Renting an apartment means living at your own pace. When the building has a heated pool, swimming joins the programme, whatever the season. On Rhodes, the old town and the beaches are often visited well into autumn, when a heated pool makes all the difference. For now, only one place of this type meets my criteria on Rhodes: Bellevue On The Beach Suites.
Each city has its own selection, with a page for each type of accommodation.

The pool. Indoor rooftop pool with sea views, heated from November to May and available by reservation; plus an outdoor pool.
One guest booked the 6th-floor pool free of charge and praises the view. Nobody mentions the water temperature.
Guide's tip. The rooftop pool has to be booked: request a slot as soon as you arrive.
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 Bellevue On The Beach Suites (Serviced suites), with 4.8/5 (287 reviews · TripAdvisor).
None of the places selected on Rhodes clearly advertises a pool heated all year round. At Bellevue On The Beach Suites, heating is seasonal (november to may). Either way, ask for the heating dates before you book.
None of the places selected on Rhodes 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.
