The Department of Foreign Affairs on Thursday night said it was providing consular assistance to the family of an Australian woman who died on the popular Indonesian holiday island.
"We send our deepest condolences to the family at this difficult time," a department spokeswoman said.
"Owing to our privacy obligations we are unable to provide further comment."
The woman and another international tourist lost their lives when the landslide hit their wooden villa in Jatiluwih village on Thursday morning following heavy rain, media reports quote local authorities as saying.
The names and other details of the Australian woman and the other tourist who died in the disaster are yet to be released.
Landslides, flooding and fallen trees are common hazards in parts of Indonesia during heavy rainfall.
Jatiluwih is located north of the island's capital Denpasar, and is known for its picturesque rice terraces.
