TL;DR
Yes, at most UAE all-inclusive resorts vanilla, chocolate and strawberry ice cream plus fruit popsicles are included and served at the pool and beach bars; soft-serve ice cream at the lobby bar usually costs extra.
Strawberry, vanilla and chocolate ice cream are served for free at the beach bars — you can ask staff to mix several flavors in one cup. The "Zanzibar" beach bar is recommended since it rarely has queues.
Besides ice cream, nuts, chips and olives at the beach bars are also included in the all-inclusive package.
Staff also hand out free water and watermelon pieces on bamboo skewers at the pool and beach areas, especially during summer.
The pool bar definitely offers vanilla and chocolate ice cream, and staff also hand out fruit popsicles on sticks (confirmed during a September stay).
In the main restaurant at lunch and dinner, only fruit popsicles are usually included for free, while soft-serve ice cream at the lobby bar costs extra.
