I went to PR in March and had a blast. We went as a group of 13 with some co-workers and then some friends as well. We had two local friends there which made an incredible difference in cost.
First suggestion is to use hotwire.com for hotel. We saved close to 150$ per night at the Hotel Caribe by doing that. Ended up with a 1 bedroom suite which was very spacious.
Old San Juan is lots of fun with different restaurants. There's one indian restaurant there with a very different flare to the food, tastes nothing really like indian food but its still good. martini's are pretty good there.
We then went to the rain forest which can be book with the hotel or by just driving to it. Obviously driving is the cheapest and the means we did.
Then we went to Fajardo, which is where we went to Culebra on a catermaran (large boat) and did some snorkeling and sun bathing while visiting 2004's Travel Channel #2 beach in the world. Clear pristine waters with white sand. great times.
At night there are plenty of places to party. Tourists like Senor Frogs where locals visit ohter places.
Night life is fairly casual/formal with lots of salsa so take some lessons before you go!! or if your lucky ask a senorita for a lesson at the club
