Are you looking to do this from the service console or with a script? You can see the size of a virtual disk in the VI client - right click on the VM, select edit settings and then select the hard drive. Then size of the VMDK will be displayed there.

This will show both the vmdk and flat.vmdk

find /vmfs/ -name *.vmdk -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $9 ": " $5}'
