The accepted answer is outdated (Resources::getDrawable has been deprecated since API level 22). Here's an updated version:

int height = 100;
int width = 100;
Bitmap b = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable. marker);
Bitmap smallMarker = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(b, width, height, false);
BitmapDescriptor smallMarkerIcon = BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromBitmap(smallMarker);

and then apply it in MarkerOption

.icon(smallMarkerIcon)
