Fill the glass with water please.
Fill the glass with water, please?
Fill the glass with water, please.
The up is understood, so it is natural to remove it.
The please could make things more difficult. If you're trying to get water at a restaurant, there are other more natural phrases.
"Could I get a refill please?"
"Could I get some more water?"
