Summary
- British man found dead in Bali hostel
- Requested room change before his death
- No initial signs of violence

On October 9th, 2025, a 32-year-old British man was found dead in his hostel room in Bali's Badung Regency, a popular tourist area. The man had reportedly requested to change rooms the night before, as he was feeling unwell. When he failed to emerge from his room the following day, a cleaner discovered him lying face down.
Authorities stated there were no initial signs of violence, and the man had been traveling with a group of friends. This tragic incident comes just weeks after another British tourist, 23-year-old Harrison Nada-Kontounas, drowned while on holiday in Bali. Mr. Nada-Kontounas was swept out to sea by a strong rip current at Kuta Beach, despite his friends' desperate attempts to save him.
The deaths of these two young British travelers have raised concerns about the safety of tourists visiting the popular Indonesian island. Bali, known for its stunning beaches and vibrant culture, has long been a top destination for international visitors, but these recent tragedies serve as a somber reminder of the risks that travelers may face.
