Nope, you lose about 9% of volume when ice melts. That's because when you freeze water, it expands. It loses volume if you do it the other way around.

Does an ice cube melt quicker as it gets smaller?

Melting of an ice cube mainly depends on the temperature of surrounding. If the larger ice cube is put at 50 degrees Celsius and small one at 25 degree Celsius the large ice cube will melt faster than the smaller one. Ice cube draws energy from the surrounding which causes it to melt and so temperature of surrounding is very important
