A woman who had gone on holiday to have the time of her life has ended up getting what she never bargained for.

This is where the woman was found dead

Samantha Johnson, a British woman drowned after falling asleep in a hotel bath after a drunken night out on the Spanish holiday island of Majorca.

According to Daily Mail, Samantha, 23, was discovered lying lifeless by workers at the three-star TRH Torrenova in the resort of Magaluf just before 11pm last night.

Hotel staff forced their way into her room when they saw water seeping under the door.

A post-mortem this morning confirmed she had drowned. Police investigators said they were treating the incident as a tragic accident.

Sources close to the inquiry said the dead woman was alone at the time because her partner had cut short his holiday and flown back to the UK following a row. But they said the mystery argument was unconnected to the subsequent tragedy.

Samantha's unnamed partner is already thought to have been informed of her death. It is not known when they argued and whether he was her boyfriend or husband.

A Civil Guard spokesman in Majorca, who declined to name the dead woman as is standard practice in Spain, said: 'We are treating this death as a tragic accident.

'A local court will now open a routine probe but we will be informing the investigating judge there is no evidence a crime has taken place and everything is pointing towards this woman's death being accidental.

'We were asked to attend a three-star hotel in Magaluf where the incident happened around 11pm yesterday night/on Monday night.

'Staff at the hotel saw water seeping out from under the door and when they got into the room found the woman in the bath.

'They called paramedics who were unable to revive her as well as the Civil Guard.'

A source added: 'The post-mortem showed she had drowned. She appears to have decided to take a bath after returning to the hotel from a night out and investigators believe she either fell asleep or lapsed into semi-consciousness.'

The insider described the incident as 'drink-related'. It is not known if tissue samples from the dead woman will be sent to a specialist lab so further tests can be carried out on the level of toxins in her body.

A worker at the hotel confirmed the British tourist had rowed with her boyfriend but said the hotel director had ordered staff to make no comment about the incident.
