As I couldn't comment on the Jyeon solution as my rep isn't high enough, I contribute with this answer; worked for me in Linux (openSUSE Leap) with Vagrant 1.8.1 and laravel/homestead (virtualbox, 0.4.0):

Step 1:

Go to phpMyAdmin website, download the latest version and unzip it into your project directory.

Step 2:

Add to your Homestead.yaml file the following lines:

folders:
    - map: ~/Code/phpMyAdmin
      to: /home/vagrant/Code/phpMyAdmin

Sites:
    - map: phpmyadmin.app
      to: /home/vagrant/Code/phpMyAdmin

Step 3:

Add to your hosts file the following line:

192.168.10.10   phpmyadmin.app

Step 4:

After start your vagrant environment and connects to machine via SSH, set your virtual host to work with phpMyAdmin with the command serve:

cd ~/Code
serve phpmyadmin.app /home/vagrant/Code/phpMyAdmin/

Thats it!

Go to http://phpmyadmin.app it should work, and you can login with your user and password homestead default. The great thing about this method is that you can set up your phpmyadmin so long as you keep it in your Homestead.yaml file and phpMyAdmin in your Code directory.
