Visitor or holiday resident
We explain the Spanish procedure and help establish whether travel insurance applies.
Eastern Costa del Sol
Funeral care in Torre del Mar, day or night.
Serenity supports residents, visitors and overseas relatives after a death in Torre del Mar, with clear English guidance and complete local or international arrangements.
Local funeral care
Funeral support for Torre del Mar's residents and visiting families
When a death happens on the eastern coast, relatives may not know which local authority, hospital or facility is responsible. We identify the correct route and coordinate the practical steps while the family considers the funeral itself.
If the deceased was visiting Spain, have any travel-insurance details available if possible. The insurer may need to authorise providers before costs are incurred.
Arranging privately? If the deceased has a Spanish seguro de decesos policy, contact the insurer shown on the policy first.
