The "Malecon" refers to the waterfront drive. I think it actually has two or three official names depending on what part of it you are on. As you can see from any tourist map, The Malecon basically ends at the colonial district. Farther down(west) you have Hotel Jaragua, and Vesuvius(sp?)restaurant among other places. The ocean is within site of the entire road and there are a number of estabishments of various levels of repute. There really is no beach, but it is a beautiful drive.
