Swift 3.0 Solution

Google Map CustomInfoWindow

//empty the default infowindow
    func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, markerInfoWindow marker: GMSMarker) -> UIView? {
        return UIView()
    }

    // reset custom infowindow whenever marker is tapped
    func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, didTap marker: GMSMarker) -> Bool {

        customInfoView.removeFromSuperview()
    //    customInfoView.button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(buttonTapped(_:)), for: .touchUpInside)
        self.view.addSubview(customInfoView)

        // Remember to return false
        // so marker event is still handled by delegate
        return false
    }

    // let the custom infowindow follows the camera
    func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, didChange position: GMSCameraPosition) {
        if (locationMarker != nil){
            let location = locationMarker.position
            customInfoView.center = mapView.projection.point(for: location)
        }
    }

    // take care of the close event
    func mapView(_ mapView: GMSMapView, didTapAt coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D) {
        customInfoView.removeFromSuperview()
    }
