You can find a wide range of accommodations on different websites, where you can arrange the booking and the payment (fully or partly) in advance (booking.com, Airbnb, agoda.com, and many more)
In Seychelles there are no campsites and tent sites, as a tourist you can’t sleep outdoors. Unfortunately camper van (RV) rental companies not working in the Seychelles and you can’t find any hostels as well.
