About Sunset Northwest Funeral Home

Sunset Northwest Funeral Home is a full-service funeral home in San Antonio operating as part of Service Corporation International, the largest corporate funeral chain in the United States — families who prefer locally or independently owned funeral homes may want to keep that in mind. They offer a range of services including traditional burial, cremation, and funeral ceremonies, with the capacity to handle arrangements on short notice. On Google, the funeral home holds a 4.4-star rating across 163 reviews, which reflects a broadly positive experience for many families, though several reviewers raise serious concerns worth noting — including one account alleging improper handling of remains and another describing a significant service failure when a director went on vacation without ensuring case continuity. Families considering Sunset Northwest may want to ask direct questions upfront about who will manage their case if their assigned director is unavailable, and request all service commitments in writing.

The absolute worst experience! Joseph the funeral director went on vacation and apparently nobody else at the funeral home has access to any information about my mother. We were scheduled for a rosary and celebration of life ceremony. I spent 3 weeks rummaging through boxes to find over 80 picture…

Do not hire this corporate greed filled funeral home to do your loved ones services. It has been an absolute nightmare and when we switched funeral homes we find out our daughter was not stored or embalmed properly so we can no longer have a viewing, they deny everything and no longer respond to pho…

I want to share my experience with Sunset Northwest in regard to the funeral of my brother. Joseph was the best at helping me navigate the burial of my brother.
