We visited Uxmal, Chichen Itza, and Tuluum in 1981. Loved them so much, especially Chichen Itza. Is the Mayaland Hotel still outside Chichen Itza. With all the small huts, and the main hotel seemed very European/colonial. Our guide told us about Mesa Verde in Colorado. Silly us, we'd never heard of the cliff dwellings til then + we loved them too.
