Brit’s death after 30ft fall from Ibiza hotel balcony two years ago is now MURDER probe as heartbroken family make plea
COPS have arrested a man on suspicion of murder after a British woman died in a 30ft fall from her hotel balcony at a resort in Ibiza.
Robyn-Eve Maines, 24, was on holiday with her boyfriend when she fell from the second-floor apartment at the Rosamar Hotel on the Spanish party island.
Merseyside Police said a 27-year-old man from London has been arrested on suspicion of murder and bailed.
The force said Robyn’s death was being treated as unexplained after reviewing material from Spanish police.
Her heartbroken family said: “We just want justice for Robyn.”
In a statement, they continued: “Our beautiful daughter Robyn Eve Maines was tragically taken away from us on September 25, 2022 at the Hotel Rosamar in Ibiza.
“Please if anyone saw or heard anything around this time can you please come forward and contact the police.”
Det Insp Phil Ryan said: “On the second anniversary I am appealing for any witnesses who may have been staying at the hotel in September 2022, and who are based in the UK, to come forward.
“Perhaps you return to this same hotel on the same date every year.
“Were you there in 2022 and did you see or hear anything, or do you have any other information which could assist with our investigation?”
“Robyn’s family have understandably been left devastated by her death and are still seeking answers as to what happened,” he added.
Robyn said she had flown out to Ibiza with her partner and friends on September 22, 2022.
Three days later her mother had received the “devastating phone call from the British consulate”.
She was pronounced dead at the scene after falling from the balcony just before 9am at the four-star adults-only hotel near the resort town of San Antonio.
Her boyfriend is understood to have been with her at the time and alerted hotel staff who rang emergency services.
Paramedics were scrambled to the hotel but were unable to save her life.
Her heartbroken relatives paid tribute to the trainee solicitor from Wallasey in Merseyside at the time.
Robyn-Eve’s younger brother Cam said: “She will forever be loved and remembered for the fantastic person she is.
“Our hearts bleed for the loss of someone so special. I love you big sis, always will.”
Victoria Carr, who knew Robyn-Eve, described her as a “firecracker, beautiful inside and out and so much fun to be around”.
Diane described her niece as “a beautiful person inside and out with everything to live for”.
