Award-winning team brings a taste of the Amalfi Coast to Coolum Beach

A vibrant coastal eatery bringing the flavours of the Mediterranean to Coolum Beach was officially opened by Maeva Hospitality on Wednesday 25 September.

Maeva Hospitality director Scott Armstrong said the opening of Rosa Italian was a significant milestone for the group, following the remarkable success of the recently-opened Bli Bli Hotel, which secured three major accolades at the 2024 Queensland Hotels Association Awards.

“Coolum has always been a place we’ve admired for its vibrant community and stunning coastal environment, so to have a presence here feels like a perfect fit for our vision,“ Scott said.

“We want Rosa Italian to be a place where locals and visitors alike can come together, enjoy fantastic food, and make lasting memories.”

Kellie Armstrong, also a director at Maeva Hospitality, highlighted the thoughtfully curated menu as a cornerstone of the Rosa Italian experience.

“Our menu is all about celebrating simple, high-quality ingredients, perfect for sharing and enjoying with the people you love,“ she said.

“Guests can look forward to a delicious variety of options, from wood-fired pizzas to share plates like arancini with tomato and basil aioli or local prawns with garlic, and hearty mains like pappardelle with wood-roasted lamb. And of course we’ve put together a fantastic drinks menu.”

The pair shared how the success of Bli Bli Hotel has fueled the team’s spirit for creating exceptional dining experiences.

“The success we’ve seen with the Bli Bli Hotel has been incredible, and it’s only ignited our passion to continue delivering outstanding venues. With Rosa Italian, we’re bringing a slice of Italy to Coolum Beach, and we’re very excited for everyone to come and experience it,” Scott said.
