Tenerife is a popular place to swim outdoors in winter, and the numbers show why it needs a heated pool. At Tenerife Sur airport the average January high is 22°C, and the sea off Costa Adeje sits around 20°C: lovely on the beach, cold for a proper swim. A heated pool is what turns a winter morning in the water from a dare into a habit.

Every stay we list has a heated pool that is open all year. Most are in the south, in Costa Adeje and Playa de las Américas, a short walk from the sea. The exception is the Hotel Botánico in Puerto de la Cruz on the north coast, which has palm gardens, views of Mount Teide and a large spa.

Worth knowing: heating is often confirmed for one pool and not the others. At some stays the kids' pool, the rooftop infinity pool or a suite's private pool is not confirmed as heated, so each stay page says which pool is which. If a particular one matters for January, ask the hotel before you book.

Royal Sun Resort

High on the hillside at Los Gigantes, the pools look the same way the apartments do: along the dark cliffs of the Acantilado and out over the Atlantic towards La Gomera. There are two, a main pool curving between the sun terraces and the Oasis pool bar, and a children's pool linked to it by a waterfall. Both are outdoors, open all year and free for guests, with the water heated for the winter months.

Wyndham Residences Golf del Sur

The main pool at Wyndham Residences Golf del Sur is a big, curved outdoor pool ringed by palms and the low white villas of the resort, with Mount Teide on the skyline behind. It's heated and open all year, which is what makes this a winter option rather than a summer one, and it's free to use. A children's pool sits alongside it.

It's outdoors, open all year and included in your stay, with sun loungers and umbrellas along its edges and a heated outdoor jacuzzi close by. Playa del Duque is about 300 metres away.

Royal River, Luxury Hotel - Adults Only

An 80-metre river pool winds between the River Villas at Royal River, under palms, and each of those villas opens from its own pool into it. The Pool and Grand Pool Villas have a private pool on the terrace instead, and the Lagoon Villas stand on stilts over a lake with direct access to the lagoon pool. Shared pools add to that: a rooftop infinity pool looking across the golf course to the Atlantic, and a main pool below. All outdoors, open all year and included in your stay.

Los Jardines de Abama Suites & Villas

Seen from the loungers, the main pool seems to pour straight into the Atlantic: it's an infinity pool with palms along its curving edge, heated and open all year. A separate outdoor kids' pool keeps the youngest swimmers apart, and the two- and three-bedroom villas add something rarer, a private pool of their own on the terrace, looking out to sea.
