The pool. Villa with sea views and heated pool, according to the listing.
I haven't yet found guest reviews that mention the water temperature.
Guide's tip. Ask whether heating is included or costs extra, and from what date it runs.
Renting a whole villa or house means having the heated pool to yourself, with family or friends. In Maspalomas, between the dunes and the lighthouse, you'll find both hotels and villas with a heated pool. Here are the 5 villas and holiday homes I've selected in Maspalomas, all rated at least 8/10; I particularly recommend Luxury Villa Morelli, Bungalow exclusif vue mer (75Steps) and Maspalomas Villa 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.

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 Luxury Villa Morelli (Villa for rent · Airbnb), with 4.96/5 (56 reviews · Airbnb). Next come Bungalow exclusif vue mer (75Steps) (4.94/5) and Maspalomas Villa Heated Pool (4.79/5).
Yes at Maspalomas Villa Heated Pool: the pool is advertised as heated all year round. Either way, ask for the heating dates before you book.
None of the places selected in Maspalomas gives a precise temperature. Ask the property before booking, especially out of season.
Yes: Villa Violetta and Villa de luxe 5 étoiles, vue mer, jacuzzi et piscine chauffée also have a hot tub in addition to the heated pool.
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.
