I sleep with a water bottle in the crook of my arm (or somewhere near me in bed). Yes, the water gets a bit warm but I wake up many times a night, have a drink and go back to sleep - all while waking to only the minimum level required to complete these tasks. I use the "Thermos brand" water bottles with the lid that snaps shut plus it has a metal tab to secure the lid. These are necessary to keep the lid from popping open in the middle of the night - not fun!!
