TL;DR
Most hotel main pools are heated in winter Egypt, but waterslides are not. Albatros resorts are known for having heated aquapark pools.
There is also a contrasting March report: at Bellagio Resort, the pool was very cold. This is another example that in late winter to early spring, pool heating in Egyptian hotels may be inconsistent, so it is best to confirm the water temperature for the specific pool in advance.
The main pool is heated in winter, but guest reviews are mixed — some find the water warm enough, others do not. It is worth confirming with the hotel before booking.
Swim-up room pools may have different heating than the main pool — worth asking the hotel specifically about swim-up pool temperatures in winter.
Albatros resort hotels have heated aquapark pools. In other hotels, typically only the main pool is heated — waterslides themselves are not heated.
Near the main Parkland pool there is a children's playground and a separate toddler aquapark zone. Daytime temperatures near the water are comfortable in winter, though midday heat can be intense.
Some hotels offer food service within the aquapark area — this may be listed on the hotel website, but it is best to confirm on arrival.
For a December family trip, note that waterslides are not heated, and one pool may be under maintenance. Children's and adult slides are typically operational.
