"natural = water" does not apply only to natural features.
The Wiki entry for "natural=*" states: "
| natural | water | | Any body of water, from natural such as a lake or pond
to artificial like moat or canal. |
So, unless you are saying that the water itself is man-made, I think that
"natural=water" is correct.
Also in the Wiki, under "key:water=*", it says, "
| water=pond | A pond: a body of standing water, man-made in most cases, that
is usually smaller than a lake. Salt evaporation ponds should be tagged with
landuse=salt_pond, open-air swimming pools — with leisure=swimming_pool. |

Left-field thought, but a quick web search reveals it's a salt-water
pool in a town built around salt-water springs. Are you sure the water
isn't natural?
