Influencer Alix Earle claims she’s “stranded” in Italy after an alleged scam on a hotel booking website.

The TikTok star, who is currently on a three-week European vacation with 10 of her friends, said the group was left homeless after their supposed “scenic villa” in Positano didn’t exist.

“We’re stranded in Italy,” the 22-year-old said in a TikTok video Monday.

“The house we were supposed to stay at doesn’t exist. Our car service canceled. It’s midnight. We literally don’t know where to go. The girls trip took a turn,” Earle added.

The group left Ibiza, where they had been partying for several days, and headed to the Amalfi Coast, where Earle said she made a reservation using Booking.com.

After discovering their villa wasn’t there, the group found a temporary hotel to spend the night.

“We found a place to stay the night after our ‘scenic villa in Italy’ didn’t exist,” she captioned another clip, which showed four of the women sharing one single bed.

Despite the hiccup, the recent University of Miami graduates appeared to be making the most of the situation.

“Girl you’ll make the best of it. You always do,” one fan commented, to which Earle responded, “We’re having fun.”

Another fan chimed in, “obviously not ideal to lose your housing, but these are the kind of memories that will be remembered & talked about forever,” while a third follower jokingly added, “the universe is telling you to go to the club.”

The official Airbnb account also jumped into the comments section.

“babes we got you. our people are calling you now,” they wrote, although it wasn’t clear whether the company had contacted Earle.

The trip was organized as a post-graduation celebration, and several TikTok videos showed the women partying hard on the Spanish island.

“I can’t sit still for one second. I graduated, moved, and now off to another country,” Earle said in a TikTok last week.

Before jetting off to Europe, the blonde beauty was spotted out with NFL player Braxton Berrios.

The athlete, 27, was seen partying with Earle’s roommates at celebrity hot spot E11EVEN earlier this month after the group graduated from university.

An insider also told Page Six that Earle and Berrios attended the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix together – approximately two months after fans first speculated that the pair were an item.

The football player split from Olivia Culpo’s sister Sophia in March, after two years of dating.
