With a whole-property rental the pool is private: you swim whenever you like. Just check that heating is included, or request it when you book. In the Jura, warm water is mostly found in resort chalets and apartments, and in a few hotels with indoor pools in the wine country. Here are the 3 villas and holiday homes I've selected in the Jura, all rated at least 8/10; I particularly recommend Red Heart – maison 3 chambres, The Lodge – villa, piscine privée chauffée and Chalet cosy du Haut-Jura.
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.

In my selection, the top-rated is Red Heart – maison 3 chambres (House for rent · Airbnb), with 4.96/5 (82 reviews · Airbnb). Next come The Lodge – villa, piscine privée chauffée (5.0/5) and Chalet cosy du Haut-Jura (5.0/5).
Yes at The Lodge – villa, piscine privée chauffée: the pool is advertised as heated all year round. Red Heart – maison 3 chambres and Chalet cosy du Haut-Jura have an indoor pool, sheltered from the wind. Either way, ask for the heating dates before you book.
None of the places selected in the Jura gives a precise temperature. Ask the property before booking, especially out of season.
No confirmed heated pool, but a hot tub: Gîte 3 étoiles « 5 cépages » avec jacuzzi.
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.
