I just set up an AWS Lightsail account and chose the LAMP installation, provided by Bitnami.

According to the Bitnami documentation, to connect to PHPMyAdmin, you create an SSH tunnel and browse to the path giving. Great, I can see the login page, but where do I get the credentials?

To log in, use username root for MySQL and the application password from the detail page for your cloud server.

What password are they talking about?

It is not the password to login to my AWS Console. Nor is it, as some threads on the Bitnami site suggest, bitnami or bitnami1.

Anyone what what password the service is looking for?

The password is found by connecting to server via SSH and running the command cat bitnami_application_password.
