We have been on the Star twice (the past two Aprils) to the Mexican Riviera. We loved the ship. We did it once just as a hubby and wife couple, and once with two 15 year old girls. We had great service, and good (not great) food in the dining room We did not care for the Horizon Court, but the teens loved it. We are not buffet people, but it was very popular. We really enjoyed the dinners at Sabatinis. Room service is quick and they will bring you anything that is on the dining room menu, even if it is not on the room service menu. The pizzeria and grill by the pool were very good and there was never a problem finding an outdoor table. The teen who went with us last year said the food was better than RCL--can't remember which ship she went on before, but it was one of the ones with the rock climbing wall. She was disappointed there was no midnight buffet, although the regular buffet---Horizon Court-- was open.Regarding your friend, there is a great children's program, but I really can't comment on singles. We saw 20-somethings without apparent partners looking like they were having a good time at the disco and around the pool, but didn't really notice older singles (doesn't mean they weren't there).Hope this helps!
