I know it's not a website, but I highly suggest picking up "So You Want to Live in Hawaii" by Toni Polancy. This gives some great insight about moving and living in Hawaii. It has some great chapters about the job and housing markets and gives some great insight about aspects of life in Hawaii that you may or may not have considered yet (such as racial tension, crime, drugs, pet quarantine, hobbies, etc.). Some readers complain that the book is overly pessimistic; however, I know several people who used to live or still live in Hawaii and I understand that this book is right on the money.

What kind info you looking for? Like places and hotspots? The economy? Schooling? Depending on the specifics go to google and do some research. Start by looking at Hawaii tourist website they usually provide other useful links

I used to live there.
here are some tips --get a bus pass if you don't have a car.
get a costco card and/or a sam's club card.
get your hair done before you go over. it's hard to find a good hairstylist for some reason.
jobs are easier to come by if you're not picky and are okay living lean for a high cost. besteasiest jobs to get are in bars, restaurants, hotels. also military, medical.
most people have more than one roommate in their apartments.
longs drugs has slightly cheaper foodstuffs sometimes.
local fruit. fresh fish.
another thing about moving to hawaii is meeting people to lean on and to give generously in reciprocity.
also --white people are a minority. this can be a shock to people sometimes.
all my best to you

There are hundreds of thousands of sites...You can find them yourself by typing "hawaii moving to" in your search engine...But here's some advice: don't do it. It's over-hyped and over-priced.
