Our Services

How We Support You

Comprehensive arrangements tailored to honor your loved one.

01

Local burial

All aspects of local funeral arrangements — cemetery liaison, plot selection, newspaper obituaries, and a wide selection of coffins including ecologically friendly bamboo and willow.

02

Cremation

There is currently no crematorium in Cyprus — we coordinate transfer abroad (typically to Greece) with full professional standards and complete care.

03

International repatriation

Out of Cyprus to anywhere in the world, and the return of Cypriot citizens who died abroad. Consular liaison, hermetic sealing, document translation, and consignee appointment.

04

Embalming

Required by international law for repatriation. Performed by qualified members of the British Institute of Embalmers and the European Association of Embalmers.

05

Two chapels of rest

For family and friends to pay their respects — separate or joined together for larger groups. Visiting by appointment, fully accessible.

06

Hearses & transport

Mercedes-Benz hearse, Ford Cardinal hearse, and a removal vehicle. Families may define the route and passing points for the procession.

07

Floral tributes

Wide selection of arrangements and bespoke tributes — choose your own style, flowers, and colours for a personal expression of love.

08

Granite monuments

3D-designed monuments in solid granite, imported, with a full design service — free of charge.

State-of-the-art engraving on stone, on-site at cemeteries. Porcelain portraits in colour or black & white, plus shadow carvings on black granite.

"Like many have already mentioned, G&P Melas made a difficult time effortless. Their professionalism is second to none, dealt with us humanely and not as just another business transaction. I cannot recommend them highly enough."
John W. September 2025
"George and his team were so professional and compassionate throughout the whole process. They made all the arrangements to bring my brother-in-law over from Australia so he could be buried in Cyprus. Very grateful to them for making the whole process easier for us."
A. Nicolaidou November 2025
"George was a pleasure to deal with, very knowledgeable and helpful at such a sad time. We are based in the UK and he made the process much easier to understand, discussed our different options and took the pressure away from us until we could get to Cyprus. The repatriation service went very smoothly and we appreciate George's service so much."
