About Lack’s Beach Services

Yes we offer chair rentals, but that’s not all…

Save yourself time and the struggle of hauling more beach gear across the sand, you can rent an umbrella and beach chairs from our attendants 7 days a week from March to October while our certified lifeguards patrol the beach.

Most importantly, our lifeguards are looking out for you.

The highest priority of our lifeguards is the safety of everyone on the beach. Our lifeguards receive specialized training to deal with emergency situations on the beach. Not only are they certified and well-trained before the season begins but they also receive weekly training to keep them on their toes!

“I consider working with the young adults of the world a privilege. I hope that any influence that I have on them is positive. They are the next new leaders!”

How to Rent

Put your feet up and stay awhile! Seriously. Rent one of our chairs and an umbrella to enjoy the best beach views in comfort. Instead of buying and setting up your own chairs and umbrella, see one of our attendants to rent ours. You can rent by the day or the week – and always have a spot on the beach reserved just for you!

Some of Our Satisfied Customers

“We enjoyed a girls’ weekend at MB Resort (Renaissance Tower-excellent rental!) and went down early to rent an umbrella/chairs. We not only received excellent customer service from Lack’s but kindness & patience. I believe Brad? was working that day and didn’t waste any time or effort in setting up equipment to prepare for the day. […]

“First time in Myrtle Beach and I loved it! The sand is soft, no rocks on the beach or in the water either! The highlight of my vacation was meeting two fantastic lifeguards from Poland! I was staying at the Holiday Inn Pavillion at L40. Damian and Inga were super friendly and helpful in the […]
