Australian tourists have reported losing all their belongings after a massive fire destroyed 16 villas at a Bali resort.
The massive and destructive fire broke out at around 10.30pm on Thursday night in Seminyak, an area popular with Australians.
Bailey, a man from Western Australia, was staying at one of the villas and told the Perth radio station: 6PR He and his friends have lost almost everything.
“We were having dinner and when we were coming back we could see flames in the distance. As we got closer we realised our villa was on fire,” he said on Friday.
“I lost everything except my passport and cash. Most of us lost it. A couple of them lost their passports and a couple lost everything.”
Bailey said he and his companions will go to the Australian consulate to try to “get some new passports…”
“And then we’ll have to find some new accommodation somewhere.”

He said reports of people stealing items from the complex as the fire raged were probably not true.
‘They were taking safes and mattresses out of the place. I don’t know if they were stealing them.
“They were just getting them out of there so nothing would get damaged,” he told Millsy and Karl on 6PR.
