The father of a young Aussie girl who drowned in a Bali swimming pool was forced to ask his Airbnb host for extra time to check out following the tragic incident.
Janaa Al Easawi, from Liverpool in Sydneys west, was found unresponsive in the pool at her parents holiday accommodation in Seminyak on Thursday afternoon.
Her parents had mistakenly thought the gate to the pool had been locked.
Her father was the first to spot her and pulled her out of the water before rushing her to the DSquare Medical Clinic, also in Seminyak.
The three-year-old was unconscious on arrival at the clinic but a pulse was still detectable, a doctor told Balinese police.
Janaa was taken in an ambulance to BIMC Hospital, but despite efforts to revive her with CPR she was declared dead at about 2pm.
Villa staff told police that just hours later, Janaas father had contacted her through the Airbnb app informing her that his child had died.
The Aussie dad asked if he could leave their luggage at the villa until the evening and whether that would incur an extra charge.

The staff member replied with their condolences and reassured him that there was no need to worry about the luggage.
She also offered to help the father with reporting the incident to the authorities, but the grieving dad replied only with thank you.
He informed the host they had checked out just after 11pm that night.

The couple had left their home in Campbelltown to holiday in Bali over the summer holidays before Janaa was due to celebrate her fourth birthday.
They are now planning to fly home to Sydney with their daughters body where a funeral will be organised for the three-year-old.
Her distraught parents shared a statement following their tragic loss saying they were grateful for the time they had with Janaa.
Her memory will live on forever in the countless moments she gifted us. Janaas smile had the power to light up every room, and her love for her parents, family, friends, and her cherished parrot (Coco) was boundless, they told 7News.

Our precious Janaa, you will be forever loved and remain in our hearts, always.
Other heartbroken relatives also shared tributes to the beautiful youngster.
Her parents said they want Janaas life to be celebrated but also hope the tragic story will serve as a warning to others.
They hope their pain will make others think twice about booking accommodation with backyard pools.
They also advised all parents to teach their children how to swim from an early age in order to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
Janaa had recently started swimming lessons herself.
