The Canary Islands are nicknamed the islands of eternal spring: the air is mild all year round. The ocean, however, stays cool in winter, and many pools aren't heated.

I've selected 72 places, all rated at least 8/10; the top-rated is Villa with Ocean Views and Heated Pool (4.98/5).
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.
