SiRulo in the Karo language means Extended Family. SiRulo is also an abbreviation of the name of the manager of Jabu and SiRulo Beach, Rudi Sihaloho. Having lived in the Karo region, Rudi was inspired to name the homestay and beach SiRulo.
Thus, the meaning of Jabu SiRulo is a peaceful and pleasant home provided for everyone.
In a broader sense, it symbolizes how Sihaloho and his wife, Boru Ginting, warmly welcome guests. The Sihaloho extended family delights in having visitors in Rudi Sihaloho’s home (SiRulo).
