Del Rey went into the final round with a two-shot lead but a lightning-quick start soon took him five strokes clear at the top of the leaderboard.
And although playing partner Marcus Armitage cut the gap to three at the turn, another brilliant burst of scoring from Del Rey at the beginning of the back nine sent him six shots ahead with five holes to play.
The Spaniard never looked like opening the door for closest challenger Armitage from that point onwards, closing his round with five pars in a row to enter the DP World Tour winner's circle for the first time on his 70th start.
He finished the tournament on 22 under par after firing six birdies and no bogeys in a flawless final-round 66.
Armitage ended his round with a birdie at the last to sign for a 68 and finish four shots behind Del Rey on 18 under.
Shaun Norris was the top South African for the second week in a row after his tied-sixth finish in Dubai last week.
A final-round 72 was good enough for a tie for 16th, with Thomas Aiken a stroke further back after a 68.
