Samie, 25, who parted ways with Sam, 32, on good terms, chose tropical print swimwear with a matching wrap for her time on the day-beds.
She pulled on a pair of sunglasses and styled her brunette hair into ringlets in a half-up do.
The reality TV star went make-up free for her series of sizzling snaps posted to Instagram, which saw her sprawled out on all fours.
She struck a series of sassy looks perched in front of a mirror on the outdoor furniture before collapsing into a fit of giggles.
She gave a cheeky glimpse of her derriere as she posed with her rear facing the camera before ruffling her locks as she smiled.
Samie tagged her Bali location and captioned the images with the quip: "Natural habitat."
Earlier this month, the content creator and influencer posed for a series of Instagram selfies as she headed to Ibiza shortly after her split was revealed.
GOOD TERMS?
E4 star Sam recently broke his silence on coming face to face with ex Samie at a recent event.
The pair were seen hanging out at Shoreditch House in London last week for a REHAB hair event - just weeks after breaking up.
Opening up about their night out, he said: "I'm going to be honest with you, really lovely. And yeah, actually, just spent a lot of time having a chat, having a chinwag just such an epic chat."

He joked that Samie actually cared more about Pete than him, adding: "She loves you. She did ask about you. She seemed to care more about you than me really."
Sam then rubbished claims they went home together, continuing: "It was a lovely moment actually just sort of saying 'hello'."
PARTING WAYS
Sam was first pictured snogging Samie and holding her face as they smooched outside Olivia Attwood's 34th birthday bash.
They were also snapped walking arm in arm afterwards and he tenderly placed a hand on her waist.
Love Island All Stars Samie Elishi and Grace Jackson Feud
LOVE Island's Samie Elishi and Grace Jackson locked horns in the All Stars villa - yet what's the situation?
Samie Elishi told how she had confronted Grace Jackson at The BRITs after the ITV2 alum claimed she was the "snakiest" in the villa.
It came after the pair had tried to avoid each other when partying with the same friends.
Samie 's arrival in the Love Island spin-off this year sparked issues between Grace and partner Luca Bish, 25.
Samie entered the ITV2 compound and proceeded to blow up the villa's strongest couple as she admitted to fancying Brighton lad Luca, before whisking him off on a date.
Stirring up the drama further after her arrival, Samie promptly referred to the secret DMs she shared with Luca in the real world.
Yet the pair felt no connection and Samie was swiftly dumped from the villa days later.
Grace was then said to have revealed her "true feelings" about Samie as she appeared to smirk during her eviction.
While the pair didn't share their relationship on social media, Sam did praise Samie on his podcast, Staying Relevant with pal Pete Wicks.
Grilled by his best mate, he was relatively tight-lipped but said: "What I will say though, really awesome chick. You met her that night. Really, really lovely. Super down to earth, super nice, beautiful, obviously."
Samie, meanwhile, opened up about the romance last month during an appearance on the We Talk To The Dead podcast.
Last week, The Sun exclusively revealed the pair had decided to go their separate ways weeks after first being spotted together on a cosy date.
A source close to the former couple said: "It was a mutual thing and there is no bad blood between them.
"They both just have really busy schedules, particularly Sam who has been non-stop recently, and it was really hard to make it work. They're still good mates.
"It's a shame but sometimes things just don't work out."
Hints of trouble between the pair were first raised after Sam was cagey when quizzed about Samie while promoting his Soccer Aid challenge for Unicef earlier this month.
Asked if she would be there to support him, Sam told MailOnline: "I feel like… this is so much more than who I'm dating or hooking up with.
"And I feel like it would take away from what it is going on. You know what I mean?"
Sam began dating Samie after splitting with Zara McDermott late last year.

The couple wed in Turkey in September 2019 and share two children; Cree, four, and Shae, who turns two later this month. Discussing introducing his relationship to his children, Rio told his wife: 'It's hard, you don't really get over it if you do it wrong, if it's done abruptly without conversations and done the wrong way. 'But if people are saying no, the kids are saying no I don't know, man. I'm just lucky, fortunately we didn't get to that point... 'But if my kids have said no, we're probably not here right now. Because we don't get the chance to get to where we are, where we're like madly in love... 'Because as soon as the kids say no - we were in love at that time, but it was still early enough to think where you go, but on both sides, you go, 'The kids ain't accepting me, I can't get into this. It's too much stress.' Rebecca died aged just 34 after a short battle with breast cancer . She appeared to be in the clear only for a scan to reveal the disease had spread to her bones five weeks before her death, prior to which she planned her own funeral (Rebecca and Rio pictured in 2009) Rebecca's death left Rio a single father to Lorenz, 18, Tate, 16, and Tia, 14 (the family pictured with Kate in 2020) 'And I'm going, 'The kids ain't happy. They're going to have to be number one.' And I think there's a lot of relationships that would end up because of that... 'I don't know how you push on after you've just found someone, you fell in love with them, you two together, and the kids aren't involved in that... 'And then when they get involved and not happy, I don't know how you still move forward together like that unless you separate it.' On navigating the introduction stages, he said: ''I do think it's important in the way that you introduce this new person into the house. We very much were on the basis, we talked a lot before we even broached the idea with the kids... 'We brought Kate in as a friend first, they started seeing her around at different things that we go into friends' houses, et cetera. Kate will be there. And Ronnie, the dog, which is a great softener as well... 'But those moments of familiarity and, 'Oh, it's only Kate,' soften that next move where you go, 'Right, guys,' and you bring that. I just think we were really much about bringing them into the conversation, make them feel, have some ownership over the whole situation... ''Listen, guys, you remember Kate?' Let's see where we go then, Dad.' I think if you do it wrong, I've been in a situation, my own family recently, where it's done wrong. And I've been part of the ramifications of that and the repercussions'.

Maura Higgins sparks concern as she asks for help with painful health issue

Love Island star Maura Higgins asked her fans for their help as she admitted she was suffering severe pain and couldn't find the time to see a specialist Maura Higgins sparked concerns with her fans after admitting she was struggling with a health condition. ‌ The reality TV star took to Instagram to seek advice from her followers after admitting that her knee is "killing her" and that it felt like it was pulsing. Maura, 34, was seen posing for a selfie with no makeup on and clutching what appeared to be a matcha drink in her hand as he sought assistance from her fans. ‌ The Love Island star wrote, "Don't have the time right now to see a specialist, but if anyone has any recommendations for something I can buy to stop my knee from KILLING please DM me. It feels like there's a pulse inside of it & it's also on running around with the house move has not helped it. (yes my greys are out too, no time for that either." ‌ The update comes after Maura has had a busy week after moving into her £1.25million five-bedroom dream home in Essex. Maura has earned an estimated £3.2 million in the years since she found fame on the ITV dating show back in 2019. And she has splashed the cash on a luxury new home - snapping up a five-bedroom property in the south east of England. The semi-detached house boasts an impressive garden and has huge, floor to ceiling windows that allow plenty of natural light to flood in. ‌ But it seems Maura will need to splash a little more money - as it appears she has little to no furniture in her grand new home. Nonetheless, the TV star shared news that she has moved into the dream home this weekend. On Sunday, the reality star took to Instagram Stories to share a couple of snaps from inside her new pad. She shared a photo from her kitchen looking out to her garden with a vase of flowers, candles, and a bottle of wine visible in the foreground. She wrote alongside the image: "After the busiest few months.... she's finally in." She added a house emoji and a padlock and key emoji - showing she is now a proud home owner. ‌ She shared a second snap showing professional hairdresser Carl Bembridge perched on the top of a kitchen surface and scrolling on his phone. Maura captioned this image, writing: "No chairs yet but he always finds something to sit on." Maura's happy home photos come just a couple of months after she was caught kissing married pop star Danny Jones at an afterparty for the 2025 Brit Awards. The Love Island star and the McFly guitarist sparked controversy as their flirty behaviour was captured despite the fact he has been married to model Georgia Horsley since 2014. Fans blasted Maura and Danny over the scandal and Danny eventually addressed the controversy, issuing a grovelling public apology online. He wrote: "Hello everyone, sorry it's taken me a while to post this but I've taken some time out to be with those closest to me. "I want to deeply apologise to my wife and family for putting them in this situation. I love them so much and we'll continue to deal with this privately. I love you guys, thank you for your patience, understanding, and support. See you all soon, Danny." Meanwhile, Maura has remained silent on the matter.
