Some friends of mine after a trip to Hawaii, did thier lav in a tropical ocean theme.

Starting with a ocean floor painted a few inches abouve the floor...plantes were stenciled in...like kelp, then the blue water was painted...darker at the bottom, and each 6 inches or so it got lighter.

Then some fish were stenciled in and painted (this took the most time) They even included a floater...a dead fish...upsidown...not...well you know.

Initially doing it was nervy, but once started, it was beautiful. They now collect the odd bit to add to it...bathtub fish that match the ones painted, bowl of shells, tilet seat that's blue with bubbles.

It's a great effect.

Not exactly tiki, but oceanic, and not pricy to do...just time consuming.
