TL;DR
It varies by hotel: at Sharm Holiday (Naama Bay) a beach sunbed without food costs $6/day, while $19/day includes drinks, ice cream and lunch at the on-site Lebanese restaurant. At Menaville, beach cocktails are paid extra even under all-inclusive, while El Mercato and Dreams Beach include good beach food for free.
At one of the discussed hotels, beach snacks are included at no extra charge, but the selection is limited to items such as hot dogs, pre-packed salads, and fruit.
At one of the discussed hotels, there are two beach bars, and the Greek restaurant is open during the day as a snack bar.
At one resort the beach fish restaurant and bar are currently under renovation — check with the hotel in advance what temporary snack/drink options they offer instead.
In some hotels the daytime beach burger stand may be closed — check recent guest reviews (e.g. on Tophotels) before booking if this matters to you.
At Menaville hotel, beach cocktails are not included in the all-inclusive plan — you have to pay extra for them, though the beach and atmosphere are still rated well by guests.
At Sharm Holiday in Naama Bay, a beach sunbed without food costs $6/day, while the package with food (drinks, ice cream, lunch at the on-site Lebanese restaurant) costs $19/day.
El Mercato hotel has good beach food included, and the 4-star Dreams Beach hotel has its own large beach with free food, which even guests from other hotels can access.
