Jalan Somba Opu, known for its gold shops and local crafts, is close to many guesthouses and smaller hotels that cater to solo travellers looking for an economical stay.

The area around Jalan Penghibur, leading towards Losari Beach, also has numerous affordable options, including basic hotels and hostels. This location is brilliant for exploring the city on foot, with many street food vendors and local cafes nearby for cheap and delicious Indonesian cuisine.

When is the most affordable time to visit Makassar?
The most affordable time to visit Makassar is generally during the off-peak season, which aligns with the city's rainy season from November to April. During these months, you'll often find lower prices on flights and accommodation, as tourist numbers tend to decrease.

While some rain is to be expected, it rarely impacts travel plans significantly; showers are often brief, and there are still plenty of sunny periods. This period is particularly good for solo travellers, as fewer crowds mean more relaxed exploration of attractions like Fort Rotterdam and the vibrant Panyula market, and you might even snag better deals on local tours.

For couples looking for a romantic getaway without the premium price tag, visiting outside the dry season means more competitive rates on hotels, allowing you to perhaps upgrade your stay or allocate more of your budget to experiences like a culinary tour of the city's famous seafood.
