For couples and solo travellers, a fantastic option is to walk along the roadside trails, particularly on the road leading from Santa Elena towards the famous cloud forest reserves.

Families will appreciate the chance to simply wander through the charming town of Santa Elena. There are often local markets or street performers to enjoy, and the main square provides a pleasant spot for a picnic or simply people-watching. Exploring the grounds around the various coffee and sugar cane plantations (though tours usually cost money) can sometimes offer lovely views and a sense of the local agricultural landscape.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Monteverde as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance.

With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.

Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Monteverde for you.
