The victim is understood to have been on the second floor when he fell “face first” down the stairwell.
Emergency responders raced to the unnamed apartment complex in an avenue called Avenida Rafael Puig Lluvina after receiving reports a person was lying apparently lifeless on the ground.
There was nothing they could do to save him and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police have discovered the Brit holidaymaker had attended an electronic music festival in nearby Costa Adeje earlier the same day with a friend.
Officers are said to be working on the theory he woke up during the night and left the fourth-floor apartment he was staying in moments before his fall in an accident from two floors down.
The results of a post-mortem, which will include tests to determine whether he consumed drink or drugs before his death that could have influenced his behaviour, have yet to be made public.
A local investigating court has been placed in charge of an ongoing investigation into the incident.
