Deauville and Trouville face each other on either side of the Touques: on one side the Planches, the racecourse and the casino, on the other the fishing port and the Anglo-Norman villas. The beach is huge but the Channel stays cool. The Barrière palace hotels, the Cures Marines thalasso and several spa hotels have an indoor or heated pool, as do a few apartments and houses in Touques. I've selected 16 places, all rated at least 8/10; the top-rated is Villa avec piscine intérieure chauffée et sauna (4.95/5).
Each city has its own selection, with a page for each type of accommodation.

In my selection, the top-rated is Villa avec piscine intérieure chauffée et sauna (Villa for rent · Airbnb), with 4.95/5 (57 reviews · Airbnb). Next come Maison calme et cosy avec piscine chauffée (4.93/5) and Deux-pièces de charme Touques-Trouville (4.88/5).
None of the places selected in Deauville and Trouville clearly advertises a pool heated all year round. At Escapade trouvillaise, Villa Augeval Boutique Hôtel & Spa and Hôtel Barrière L'Hôtel du Golf, heating is seasonal (15 june to 15 september). Villa avec piscine intérieure chauffée et sauna, Hôtel Barrière Le Normandy and Hôtel Barrière Le Royal have an indoor pool, sheltered from the wind. Either way, ask for the heating dates before you book.
Advertised temperatures: 27 °C at Hôtel Barrière L'Hôtel du Golf. For the other places the temperature isn't published: ask the property.

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.
