Jay Slater, aged 19, was enjoying a night partying at the Papagayo nightclub in Playa de las Americas, Tenerife, on the night of June 16 before he was seen leaving the event with two British men.
June 17 and Jay was last seen leaving the white-washed home, named Casa Abuela Tina, at around 8am.
The AirBnB where missing is believed to have stayed the night before his disappearance is more then 20 miles and 11 hours’ walk from the Los Cristianos apartment where he had been staying with his pals Lucy Law, 18, and Brad Hargreaves, 19.
Jay posted a photo of himself holding a cigarette outside the holiday rental’s main door early on Monday morning.
The Airbnb owner later claimed she saw him on Monday walking uphill into the mountains alone.
At 8.30am, Jay called Lucy to say he was in the middle of nowhere, trying to get home with no water and one percent on his phone battery.
That was the last time anyone heard from him.
Spanish Police have said the two British men have “no relevance” to the investigation.
Almost two weeks on, police called off the search on the ground for Jay.
Jay’s devastated family, including mum Debbie, dad Warren, and older brother Zak remain in Tenerife trying to help police.
They say ‘it’s a mystery’, but the police need to ‘keep it going, keep it alive’
The Manchester Evening News reports friends and family told the paper: “We will be staying out here and doing all we can to find Jay.”
