The Curatorial Take

Atmosphere & Gastronomic Identity

Motel Mexicola is an explosion of technicolor nostalgia, infectious energy, and Latin celebration right off Petitenget. Designed as a 1960s Acapulco motel courtyard with tiered balconies, retro shrines, and mosaic tiles, it transforms each evening into Bali's most vibrant fiesta.

The kitchen delivers authentic Mexican street food made with hand-pressed heirloom corn tortillas. The Baja fish tacos are crisp and flaky, topped with chipotle crema, while the slow-cooked birria tacos are dunked into spiced beef broth. Tequila pours generously as patrons dance to vintage Latin rhythms.
