If you stay in the Condado area or the Isla Verde area, you will be fine. Isla Verde is closer to the airport. You are walking distance to beautiful beaches. The Condado area has more nightlife. Condado is closer to Old San Juan and the pier that Disney will likely use. Isla Verde is closer to the airport. We've stayed at the Doubletree in Condado and the Embassy Suites in Isla Verde. I liked the Embassy Suites better. There were more restaurants within walking distance, and the beach was close too (walking distance). You will have to take a taxi into Old San Juan from either area.
