Welcome to Al Qasr, a true sanctuary of tranquility and luxury. This exquisite 180 m² split-level villa is perfectly positioned on an expansive 1,500 m² southwest-facing plot, offering amazing views.

Overview

Al Qasr – A Private Paradise Like No Other

Welcome to Al Qasr, meaning “The Palace” in Arabic — a truly unique and luxurious escape nestled in the heart of the idyllic Andalusian countryside. This 180 m² split-level villa is perfectly set on an extremely private 1,500 m² southwest-facing plot, surrounded by high perimeter walls, large solid entrance gates, and ample parking space — offering complete seclusion and total anonymity.

A Tranquil Setting with Endless Views:

Located in the picturesque Moorish village of Cortijo Cabrera, Al Qasr is blessed with dramatic, uninterrupted views and sunlight from mid-morning to nightfall. A short 350 m stroll brings you to the charming Arch Bar for local tapas, or continue on to the award-winning Riad Restaurant, affectionately known as Fatima’s. Just a short drive away lies the bustling market town of Turre, the beautiful whitewashed village of Mojácar, and the Blue Flag beaches of Mojácar Playa.

When you arrive at the top of the mountain track you will pass through an arch and so approach the villa entering into the courtyard. The villa itself is lovely, very spacious and has many different outdoor seating options. The al fresco and outdoor kitchen/bbq area subtly lit by outside lanterns created a great ambience for evening dining. The infinity pool was perfect, well maintained and a delightful area for chilling and relaxing. We also loved the architectural style of Arabic/Moroccan of this villa. However, it was the fabulous views and amazing sunsets which made this villa special. It is also worth mentioning that within easy walking distance is the delightful Arch Bar and the wonderful Riad Cabrera (Fatima's) restaurant.

We spent a wonderful week at the villa, enjoying the spectacular views and the infinity pool. We loved the peace and quiet, and were fortunate to have beautiful weather to make the most of everything. We also loved visiting the restaurant at the bottom of the hill, and the town of Mojácar. Lynn’s communication was excellent and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property.

I could just sum it all up with “simply stunning” as this says it all! The villa is set in a wonderful, private location with the most amazing views. There are so many outside spaces to sit and enjoy the beauty of the surroundings, but comfortable outside spaces. Whether inside or out, the quality of the furniture, bedding, crockery and down to the portable Bose mobile speaker is excellent as the owners have clearly put their hearts, soul and thoughtfulness into the villa. The whole place was spotless as well. We were a family of six and there was so much room both inside and outside that at no point did we ever feel like we were on top of each other. The owner Lynn and her manager Jane were on What’s App with recommendations on local restaurants and advice on simple questions which was great. Of course, to get the privacy that this villa gives you’ll need a car to explore the area but that’s why you’d say here. So, a really really special place to stay and throughly recommended.

I just wanted to drop a quick email on our last day in Al Qasr to say how fantastic this holiday has been. We have been coming to Cabrerra for 30 years now and this by far is the best villa we have stayed at. From the second we arrived at Ak Qasr we felt relaxed and at home here and with Jane's hospitality, it just makes it even better. I was hoping to get some dates secured for next July

We had a fantastic stay at Al Qsar. The villa is bathed is sunshine, spacious with loads of places to sit and relax, oh and the views! Really well appointed and well equipped, quality linens and really comfy beds - the property has a lovely luxurious finish. Great location just a short stroll from the village bar, yet totally private. Excellent communication from Lynn and also from the villa manager.

When you arrive here you will be amazed at the setting it is just stunning. The villa has everything you need and Jane who meets you is lovely and very useful for local information . You are up in the hills and is very peaceful the infinity pool was very well used as was the BBQ. We will be going back I’m sure.

5 star: Fabulous Time! Dear Lynn, Yes, we had a fabulous time at Al Qasr! We have stayed at about 25 villas in Cabrera over the years and I can honestly say Al Qasr is the most impressive. The view is certainly the best - and the furnishings and decor are a credit to your good taste. My wife fell in love with the gold silk curtains in the lounge and we were very happy in the villa. Jane was an impeccable host and manager - and did everything possible to make our stay comfortable. Full marks. The only problem was the weather. it was too good! The relentless days of blazing sunshine, and 30 degrees plus

5 Star: 2 week stay: We have rented villas for 15 years plus and I can safely say Al Qasr comes up top of the best places we have stayed at. The Villa is very clean and has everything you need catered for, including well stocked kitchens inside and out. The pool is fantastic and is well kept by the pool guy who comes twice a week. The views are wonderful and the local Bar down the road serves up great food both to eat in and to takeaway. Car rental is a must. Turre is 15 minutes drive away, which has two well stocked supermarkets and a street market on a Friday. Mojacar and the beaches are 20 minutes drive away. Great stay despite the heatwave!

5 star: Dream Honeymoon We have loved our stay at Al Qasr! The location is absolutely fabulous and the house, garden and grounds are equally fabulous. The road to the house through the Sierra de Cabrera was beautiful and easy. The urbanisation the villa is located in is very well kept and has a great restaurant and bar. As for the views, from the pool or anywhere in the house, these are breathtaking!!!! The house is very well equipped with everything you might need. We would love to come back in the future as this was a dream honeymoon!!!

Hello, we're Lynn and Fraser from Dorset. We stayed in the lovely village of Cortijo Cabrera 15 years ago, when our children were 9 and 8 years of age and we fell in love with it. We knew we always wanted our own place in the area but we either never had the time, (raising a family/work/moving abroad) or could never seem to find 'the one'. We finally found it, during one of the covid lockdowns! With some travel restrictions still in place or guests staying at the villa, we walked through the doors on the 20th September 2021, (the day we completed/purchased her), to see it for the very first time. We knew it was a special villa and the views were outstanding but it still did not prepare us for the beauty we saw. We had been busy updating and getting our new home ready for our 2022 guests, when disaster struck. To cut a very long story short, Almeria had the largest rainfall since records began in March 2022. With poor drainage in place, this caused a number of problems, not just for us but for others on the mountain. It affected our parking area and the lower terrace so much, with a heavy heart, we had to cancel and refund our 2022 guests. However.....not only did we get through it, we rebuilt the areas stronger and tougher! . We also took the opportunity to add extras!. One being our outside kitchen, that will be ready for April 2023. We are so excited for the 2023 season and we hope to be welcoming you to our home. Lynn & Fraser
