Royal Caribbean Cruises has appointed Larry Pimentel to the newly created position of president and chief executive officer of Azamara Cruises.

Pimentel will head up the company’s luxury brand, reporting directly to Richard Fain, chairman and chief executive officer of RCCL.

“It is time for Azamara Cruises to stand on its own, after a successful two years of operation,” said Fain.

Pimentel was formerly president, chief executive officer and co-owner of Seadream Yacht Club.

Previously, he was president and chief executive officer of Cunard Line and Seabourn Cruise Line.
