(Although, with the leopard print, it actually looks kinda African to me.) It is lovely, and I agree with your assertion that it can work with the right trappings around it. It's not just about it not having a tiki on it, though... a rattan bar without a tiki still at least looks tropical, but this bar in its current state says CONQUISTADOR! so boldly that I don't know that I would have chosen it as a tiki bar.
