Has anyone ever been there - San Juan, PR? Thoughts?
Specifically the La Isla Verde area.

Ohhh! Good to know, we're thinking of adding on 3 days after St. Lucia there --- our TA recommended the InterContinental Hotel & Resorts --- have you heard anything about it? I know nothing about the area but it looks GORGEOUS!

OHHH! I'm so glad you've been there!!! Are there tons of fun things to do around? What's there to do in San Juan? Do you think that 3.5 days is a good amount of time to get a feeling for it? We also just want to be on the beach -- do you think mid-May is a good time for that? :) TIA!!!

Re: SAN JUAN!?
Yes, I've been there a few times. Nice beach resort area. This is the area where most people who visit stay and it is close to Old San Juan.
If you wanted a real getaway I would recommend hoping a charter flight ($65 round trip) to Culebra or Vieques.
