The tragedy occurred around 3am this morning at a seafront four-star adult-only hotel in the party resort of San Antonio called Hotel Vibra District.

Paramedics raced to the scene but could do nothing to save the female holidaymaker because of the extent of her injuries.

The Civil Guard were continuing to investigate this morning and an autopsy has yet to take place.

A spokesman for the force said: “I can confirm a 19-year-old British tourist has died following a fall at a hotel in San Antonio in Ibiza.”

A well-placed police source added: “Everything is pointing to this being a tragic accidental fall.”

She is the second Brit to fall to their death in the Balearic Isles in a matter of days.

On Saturday morning a 28-year-old British holidaymaker died in a 15ft fall at a hotel in Palmanova near Magaluf in Majorca after a night out partying.

The dead man’s partner had to be treated for a panic attack later in the day.

The incident happened at the four-star Reverence Mare Hotel in Palmanova.

The alarm was raised around 7am on Saturday, although the holidaymaker is believed to have fallen to his death several hours earlier.

Civil Guard investigators believe he suffered his fatal accident after trying to enter the wrong hotel following a night out partying and losing his way during an attempted short-cut.
