Tikis in films - General Tiki

If you keep watching video of the scene, you can tell it was filmed on a studio backlot. Hence my question about whether the tiki bar in question was a facade made for some other program. Or it may have been an attempt to make a rather mundane backlot street set look more like what Cocoa Beach would look like to the Average Joe. Also note the palm trees, with the base of the trunks strategically blocked by parked cars. Could the cars conceal pots the trees are sitting in? Pix of the full backlot set. The tiki bar is just visible at right.
