Works for me. Following code prints
      base getter
      base getter
      derived setter
Am I missing something?

      import std.stdio;

      class Base {
          int propImpl;
          final @property int prop() {
              writeln("base getter");
              return propImpl;
          }
          @property void prop(int newVal) {
              writeln("base setter");
              propImpl = newVal;
          }
      }

      class Derived : Base {
          alias prop = super.prop;

          override @property void prop(int newVal) {
              writeln("derived setter");
              //super.prop(newVal);
              //doSomethingElse(newVal);
          }

          void someOtherMethod() {
              auto x = prop;
              auto y = super.prop;
              prop = x;
          }
      }

      void main() {
          auto d = new Derived;
          d.someOtherMethod();
      }
