Two Aussie women were left red-faced after an early morning skinny dip at a Bali resort didn’t go to plan.
Karina Horton, 24, a photographer, and her friend Bella, 20, a business owner, had been backpacking through Bali when they decided to splurge on a luxurious villa stay.
Hoping for a bit of privacy and relaxation after their travels, they booked what appeared to be a secluded, retreat with white-walled interiors and a serene pool.
Arriving at 6am, hot, tired, and eager to cool off, the pair stripped off and jumped into the pool naked, believing they had the place entirely to themselves.
The travellers shared their hilarious slip-up on TikTok, where the video quickly amassed 20 million views.
In the video a male voice can be heard saying, ‘You woke me up, where are you from?’
They women replied ‘Australia’ as they wait for him to leave.
After he retreated, they climbed out of the water hastily cover themselves up with towels.

The moment when the Aussies on holiday dived in has since gone viral
Then, just as they thought the awkward encounter was over, Bella spotted the man still watching them off-camera and let out a shriek to alert Karina.
The clip is captioned, ‘POV: we thought we booked a private villa but when we arrived at 6am we soon realised…’
‘We were expecting a private villa, not a shared one,’ Ms Horton told Jam Press.
‘We wanted a swim in the pool after a hot travel day.
‘Then we jumped in, and a man came out of his room.
‘We were shocked and surprised, but we then looked online and realised it wasn’t advertised as shared or private.’
In a follow-up video, the women confirmed that they weren’t wearing any clothes when they dived in.
‘To answer all your questions. We in fact were (naked)’, they captioned the video.

Viewers couldn’t get enough of the unexpected encounter.
‘Omg HAHAH are you guys skinny dipping,’ one laughed.
Another joked, ‘Did you forget to pack swimsuits?!’
‘Skinny dipping is crazy,’ added a third, summing up what many were thinking.
Despite the surprise, the two women took the moment in stride, turning a travel hiccup into a viral hit.
They had some advice for fellow travellers.
‘Check the room option photos and details,’ Bella said.
‘Not just the overall accommodation, as you never know what room you could get.’
