Are there more things to do in La Fortuna (Arenal Volcano) or Monteverde Cloud Reserve?

Question

I'm planning a trip to Costa Rica. I'm thinking of concentrating my week long trip in a few places. One being Manuel Antonio. The other one being either La Fortuna (around Arenal Volcano) or Monteverde. Which of the two would be better for longer term lodging vs. the other one, which would probably be just a day trip? Thanks!

PS: What's the best transportation between La Fortuna and Monteverde. Thanks again!!

Both are similar, not to much to do in one week!!. Non of them  are  a  day trip.

Transportation: rent a car ( depend of the road) or bus ( 7-10 hours)
