Al Qasr Villa is situated in the gorgeous village of Cortijo Cabrera, Andalucia, Spain. Near Turre/Mojacar.
Al Qasr (meaning The Palace in Arabic) is truly a paradise like no other! A 180m2 split-level villa nestled beautifully on an extremely private 1500m2 southwest facing plot, surrounded by high perimeter walls and large secured solid entrance gates, with plenty of parking, offering total anonymity. It has an abundance of outside space and amazing views. Plenty of areas to either enjoy together, or to relax on your own. It is perfectly positioned to enjoy all day sun, from mid-morning to sunset. Escape from everyday life and indulge yourself in the sumptuous surroundings of Al Qasr.
Within the village, youll find our local bar/restarants just a stroll/walk away. Along with our tennis and petanque courts. Youll also find more restaurants and bars in our other local villages and our main town of Turre.
Turre, which is only 10-15 minutes away, also offers supermarkets, newsagents, pharmacy a weekly local market and fiestas at different times of the year. Carry on up another 5 minutes and youll come to the white washed village of Mojacar. Here youll find cobbled walk ways with boutique shops, with more restaurants and bars. La Playa (the beach) is a 20-25 minute drive, called Mojacar playa. It has a lovely coastline with plenty of bars/restaurants/beach clubs and more supermarkets.
Much time has been spent designing and creating a relaxing haven after dark, with LED lighting installed throughout the gardens, terraces, outdoor kitchen, chill-out lounge and swimming pool in vibrant blues, purples, and pinks, creating a stunning ambience. Our warm white lanterns add to the calming and soothing atmosphere.
The Villa
Double gated entrance to a large gravel driveway with plenty of parking. A wide stairway leads down to the double gated entry courtyard and access to the main villa, the outdoor kitchen, chill out lounge, the gardens, lower terraces and attached ensuite bedroom.
The front door leads into a small entrance hall, where you’ll find a few steps up, leads you to a spectacular, spacious and luxuriously appointed lounge. As you ascend these few steps into the lounge you will come across one of the most stunning views in Cabrera, showcased through an enormous 6 metre full-length window! Along with a bespoke gas fire, a large grey aniline leather corner sofa, 43 smart flat-screen Sony TV, with English Channels & Radio stations. A BluRay player, fast wifi mesh network, a Bose Soundlink resolver +II portable speaker - which can also be used as a soundbar, and pieces of Moroccan furniture! All windows are UV tinted. This helps regulate heat and glare.
The lounge naturally flows through to an arched open-plan octagonal dining room, with four sets of arched French doors leading directly out to the beautiful infinity swimming pool and terraces. The dining room focal point is a stunning octagonal bespoke American walnut table, with seating for 6 guests.
From the dining area descend into the well-appointed white kitchen with German appliances. The open plan kitchen comprises of white drawer and door units (where youll usually find plenty of pantry items) with Silestone work surfaces, a large Siemens fan oven/grill with 5 burner gas hob, an American fridge/freezer, coffee machines, etc. The washing machine and dishwasher are located in a small utility room through a door at the end of the kitchen. This door also leads out to the back passageway, the laundry drying area and the gas BBQ.
Youll find two bedrooms with ensuite/bathrooms in the main house. All bedrooms have individually controlled A/C units and come with Panda London Bamboo memory foam mattress toppers, Egyptian cotton sateen bedding, Portuguese cotton bedspreads and large thick fluffy Royal Egyptian bath towels. All bathrooms are fitted with high-end Italian and Philippe Starck by Duravit sanitary ware & Hansgrohe rain-head showers.
You can reach the Master Bedroom (The Amira) via the curved glass and tile staircase from the open-plan living space. Here youll find a King Moroccan teak four-poster bed, matching bedside tables and a blanket box, all below a huge domed ceiling. Your own controlled air conditioning unit & large ceiling fan. This remarkable octagonal room includes picture windows and double French doors, leading you to your own private wraparound balcony. All with spectacular views of Cabreras famous Eagles Rock and far-reaching views to the Alpujarras and the Sierra Nevada. On the opposite side of the bedroom descend into the Master ensuite, with a large Italian sink, bidet and a walk-in rain shower.
The twin room (The Samira) is on the ground floor. With a beautifully hand-crafted Andalućian traditional tiled headboard, Moroccan bedside tables, a large mirror and white high gloss wardrobes. Your own controlled air conditioning unit and large ceiling fan. French patio doors lead you to your own private balcony with Ketter seats and again, spectacular views. Located next to The Samira bedroom, off the entrance hall, is its own separate bathroom. It has an Italian high gloss sink, a contemporary vanity unit and a bath with an overhead rain shower.
The third ensuite king room (The Layali). With separate access via the stairwell (off the secured courtyard), youll see it is beautifully formed. Featuring a contemporary Italian ultra-modern ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower/large rain head, spacious modern sink/vanity, well-lit with a large mirror, extractor fan and LED lighting in the bathroom niches. Large sliding door for privacy in the bedroom. The bedroom has a king-size bed, a plush padded headboard and personal reading lights, wall-hung bedside tables, a wardrobe as well as a big window and louvred shutters. At the end of the bed is a picture wall with purple mood lighting to aid relaxation. A full-length glass entrance door (with privacy blind) allows you to sit up in bed and admire the breathtaking scenery! This also has its own individual air conditioning unit. Outside on the terrace, youll find a bistro table to enjoy your morning coffee which you can make in the outside kitchen (just a stones throw away).
With the Layali bedroom in a secure and private area of the grounds and the ground floor living area being split, with the Amira located at the top of the stairs and the Samira located at the opposite end of the ground floor, you’ll find this gives all guests total privacy between bedroom accommodation. It’s time to recharge and explore!
So come and wake up to the outstanding panoramic views, visible through the huge expanses of glass, as you meander from room to room taking in the gorgeous natural light. Walk through the abundance of arched French doors and take a few steps out onto the large and very private terrace, before immersing yourself into your own private infinity pool. Wander lazily to one of the pool loungers, kick off your shoes and allow yourself to unwind and enjoy the tranquil peace and quiet that Al Qasr provides. Enjoy lazy undisturbed meals in the cool al fresco dining area with a chilled bottle of Spanish wine, whilst whiling away the afternoon. As the dark closes in, the gardens, terraces and chill out lounge take on a different night time theme with LED mood lighting throughout. Pour yourself a sundowner while you prepare an evening feast in our newly constructed outdoor kitchen. You may even be lucky enough to see the wild boar that live below the house, especially just after sunset.
There are three airports accessible to Cabrera, offering budget flights. Almeria is the closest approximately 45 minutes, Murcia, approximately 1 hour 15 and Alicante 2 hours.
Please note: Al Qasr Villa is not suitable for children under the age of 6 years.
There’s plenty to do and see in the area…if you can pull yourself away from the views and the relaxation!
Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
