I think so but it depends on what we mean by access. Water is both a luxury and an essential and while everybody should have a right to access to clean drinking water I don't agree that everybody should simply have a right to water just because its water. Its a resource like anything else, having it processed and brought you comes with a price and its not unreasonable to expect people to pay or find their own source. (growing up my family had a well, we didn't pay a dime for water...it was awesome, until the power went out and the pump no longer worked. 5 weeks without water during the ice storm of 98 was also awesome)
Having said that, yes people at the very least should have a right to access a daily ration of drinking/bathing water but beyond that I think you either have to pay for the luxury, find/process your own or go without.
