Our story

How It Began

One day in Ella, a little stray puppy came into my life.

I named her Momo.

Discover our story

When I visited Momo a year later, the person who had been caring for her showed me a beautiful piece of land on a hilltop.

When I saw the endless tea fields, breathtaking mountain views, and a spectacular sunset from that hilltop, I instantly fell in love with this place.

As we stood on that land, he shared his dream with me. On that day, we decided to work together to bring that dream to life and create a place where everyone could slow down, rest, recharge, and reconnect with nature.

Through hard work, trust, and teamwork, Momo Ella slowly began to take shape.

That little encounter with Momo connected me with his dream and led me to the next chapter of my life. Today, that shared dream has become MOMO ELLA.
