Funeral Director in Altea — Complete Service from €1,900

Funeral services in Altea: what we take care of

Altea's charming old town and its hillside urbanisations, such as Altea Hills, mean journeys can vary considerably in distance and terrain. We are used to reaching every part of Altea quickly, and we coordinate directly with Hospital Marina Baixa in Villajoyosa, care homes and private residences.

We collect the deceased whether from hospital, a care home, a whitewashed house in the casco antiguo, or a villa overlooking the bay in Altea Hills. Once collected, we handle the medical certificate and register the death at the Juzgado de Paz de Altea, which serves as the town's Civil Registry.

• Collection and transfer of the deceased across Altea and Altea Hills
• Medical certificate signature and death certificate
• Registration at the Juzgado de Paz de Altea
• Cremation and delivery of the ashes to the family
• Consulate liaison and document translation where needed

Funeral costs in Altea — a price you can rely on

Altea families often ask us upfront what things will cost, and we are glad to answer plainly: the complete service with cremation in Altea starts from €1,900, including the eco coffin, collection, medical certificate signature, registration and delivery of the ashes in an urn. If you would prefer a farewell ceremony with the urn in a hotel function room in Altea, or burial at the Cementerio Municipal de Altea, we quote these separately, in writing, with no pressure to decide immediately.

We are a family-run funeral director, not a national chain or insurer, and the same person will be your point of contact from the first call in Altea to the delivery of the ashes.

English speaking funeral home in Altea

Altea, and particularly Altea Hills, is home to many British, Dutch, German and Scandinavian residents drawn by the town's artistic character and sea views. We explain the Spanish process calmly in English, French or German, and manage all official paperwork on the family's behalf. Where relatives abroad wish to receive the ashes, we also handle the cremation certificate and the documents required to send them overseas.

A farewell with a view of Altea's old town

For families who would prefer a quieter, more personal send-off, we organise a farewell ceremony with the urn in a hotel function room in Altea, with catering for relatives who have travelled some distance to attend. It's a fitting way to say goodbye in a town known for its beauty, without the formality of a large funeral. We put together a tailored, no-obligation quote.
