Escaping from enemies at night is the most easy thing ever. You always start on a beach, so the first thing to do is to collect about ten blocks of sand. Then, when night falls, aim straight down and build a tower of sand beneath you. In the morning, mine it all up again.
I often use twenty-forty blocks of sand or dirt for this, but ten is enough. In fact, five probably is - just so long as you're far enough away from the ground that Creepers won't blow you up.
